There's a lovely but run-down and overgrown old craftsman bungelow a couple of blocks from us. We always referred to it as the "recluse house".
It burned down this morning, and the elderly couple (who we just found out really were recluses as well as hoarders) died.
The fire department said that the fire was very small when they got there, but because the house was packed to the rafters with stuff, it spread faster than they could fight it. So sad.
