It's the Ruckman House in Helena, TX (a cool ghost town).

Awesome!
I'll have to take a look next time i'm down that way. Helena was a pretty rowdy place in it's day.
Is this house visible off the hwy, or do you have to search for it?

I haven't seen it from Hwy 80 or FM81. It's likely on a county road.

That's a pretty old pic of Comanche Hill. I doubt you'd recognize it today.
