I got to visit Kitsault shortly after Krishnan purchased the town. Some day I might use the footage I took in some kind of spooky music video or something- it was a truly bizarre experience.
All of the infrastructure needs serious work, though- so it’s not just waiting for people to move back. The undergroud electrical, the plumbing, the drainage- it’s all crumbling and blocked. Many of the houses have leaky roofs, and all of them need to be gutted and rebuilt if they are to be lived in again.
I did find an OMNI magazine in one house, dated 1982- which the caretaker generously told me to keep. It was kind of exciting! That, and the fact that the library had EVERY TOM SWIFT BOOK WRITTEN still on the shelves.
