Two cow, excuse me, steer skulls on display in a Jonestown, Texas bedroom. The fire extinguisher next to the bed is quite handy when things get too hot.

A few days ago, we posted a photo of a taxidermy hoard, with a polar bear and dozens of dead animals.
We have two more photos to share, thanks to Cory Chalmers of 1-800-Hoarders.com. For anyone who’s seen the Hoarders TV show (airing on Monday nights on A&E TV; season finale this Monday, February 4th), you’ll recognize Cory as their clean-out expert. Cory runs his own clean-up service Steri-Clean Inc. (aka 1-800-Hoarders).
At a recent cleaning job, Cory was surprised to see this in the bathroom.

He also saw this hoard of dead animals in another room. The owner put a crown on the lion; King of the Jungle. And the owner is now officially King of the Idiots.

Sure to tick off PETA, for sure. Dozens of killed and stuffed animals in a Cave Creek, Arizona home, none of which seem to be part of regulated population control. The photo’s caption reads, “Trophy Room.” Trophy for what? Biggest animal killer? The dead polar bear is sure to upset some buyers. They might tell the seller to get stuffed. [click on photo to expand] Thank you, Lori, for sending us this disturbing photo.

Visual clutter in a Kirksville, Missouri home.

Chaos in the kitchen.

Dusty liquor bottles and smelly shoes.

The den of storage.

Deer head in a Columbus, Mississippi bedroom.

Deer heads, stuffed owl, and lots of visual clutter in a Bedford, Indiana home.

Big horn sheep, pheasant, and deer on display in Mesa, Arizona.

Something smells fishy in Texas.

Please join me in singing the 3rd annual UglyHousePhotos version of the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” Everybody join in now. A one, and a two, and a three.
On the Twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…
Twelve million cow things…

Eleven chairs a stacking…

Ten rolls of T.P….

Nine deers a killing…

Eight dolls a staring…

Seven plates collecting…

Six bears a stuffin’…

Five water jugs…

Four brass geese…

Three turtles dove…

Two panda bears…

And a John Deere in the front room.

Merry Christmas!
2011’s version is here.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, everyone.
Eat lots of turkey and save the feathers & head to display later! [Lovells, Michigan]

Be sure to wash your hands before serving Thanksgiving dinner, please. Ahem, cough, yes, that means you. By the way, the photo was still up when it sold on May 31st. [Phoenix]

Gobble, gobble, gobble. [Apache Junction, Arizona]

The coyote is howling for its owner to clear out the visual clutter before selling. Notice the Christmas tree on the left side. From an Apache Junction, Arizona home.

Halloween! The house went up for sale September 14th. That meant the Christmas tree and Halloween decorations were up September 14th.

Flyswatters on display are never a good idea when selling. Tells the buyers they have a constant pest problem. Probably feeding on the dead deer and pheasant.

At least the elk wasn’t impaled like the horse. [Peoria, Arizona]

Lookin’ foxy in Detroit, Michigan. It’s a coyote, right? Is that a rifle or a stick that looks like a rifle?

The javelina wants a few puffs from the hookah. [Phoenix]

Random home staging in another Phoenix home.

If those are turkey feathers, these Conway, Arkansas folk like to celebrate Thanksgiving year ’round.
