DENNIS TOWNSHIP, N.J. - There's no shortage of weird sighting across the state of New Jersey, but it may be time to add another to the list!
A clearly abandoned home with a missing roof sits in plain view on Route 47 in Dennis Township.
While that may not sound too unique, take a closer look!
Among all the furniture you'll find a chair dangling from the top floor, holding on for dear life.
The chair has captivated thousands, even spawning the creation of a Facebook Group called "Chair Watch."
"One day it will come down but until then we all must drive by and look at the chair in all it’s mesmerizing glory. Why is it still there? How long can it last? Will it blow off before the entire house falls down? Is it nailed to the floor? Things we all want to know and don’t want to know at the same time because it will ruin the fun. Watch the chair with us."
With nearly 11,000 followers, the page posts updates on the chair almost daily, with the occasional chair meme.
Locals say the house suffered a fire in the 1970s and the roof blew off the house three years ago. The owner of the home wishes to remain anonymous, but has told neighbors he plans to knock it down and build a new business.
As curiosity continues to grow, they are urging visitors not to trespass or disturb the mysterious chair, or the home!
