[@wildwild9926]

I would love to buy places like this and restore them. I think old places need to be restored and turn them back to what they used to be. This place here has ties to Martin Luther King Jr. This should be saved. This is part of history. It's a wild and cool place.

[@Teenie-mg8xn]

He keeps saying it sinks..what does he expect it to smell like?! 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@don1857]

The "little caskets" are actually miniature samples of burial vaults, since full-sized ones would be too large and heavy to display in the selection room.

[@highlyfavored4595]

THOSE ARE NOT BABY CASKETS, THEY ARE SAMPLES!

[@AngelaEaster]

The "baby caskets" you are referring to as samples of the burial vaults. The vaults are made of concrete and are placed in the ground and the casket is then placed inside and sealed. This protects the casket over time from caving in from the dirt and elements, rain, flooding, etc.

[@Taledanoneya]

Does it really help over the period of times ? Just curious

[@AngelaEaster]

@@Taledanoneya I would think so. Think of it like when you see the above ground graves in concrete. If you can remember Hurricane Katrina images of caskets floating down the streets, well more than likely those were just buried down in the dirt without a burial vault. The casket itself should be okay but of course the body will still eventually go through the decay process.

[@Taledanoneya]

@@AngelaEaster right exactly. I thought so. I always wanted to know. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I have another question. Does the body decay slower if a person was buried inside a mausoleum?

[@marieleblanc759]

I would be scared as hell to even attempt to open that casket in the hurse ❤ this is sad

So much family history in that funeral home. It’s a shame it’s being allowed to just disappear through neglect.

[@kathisitasz6364]

Sad that the family hasn’t retrieved the photographs.

[@PorchHonky1975]

When said “hello, anyBODY🎉 up there?” Scared the $hit out of me!!! You too brave 😮

[@rrw65]

Yeah, I worked in Kingstree, at radio station, and people didn't like to go around that place. The " haints" might get em. Cool old claw foot tub. That was mosquito larva, in that water upstairs. Hard pressed county, Williamsburg is .

[@janethollman7894]

Why are there so many homes just left. Nothing sold to help pay the back taxes. The hearses before they rotted away, but the engines might be ok. Then the furniture and stained glass windows such a waste. Even caskets are left actual ones and samples. Imagine having funeral homes segregated even in death you are not good enough. Bet if the had organs that could be donated they wouldn’t ask what colour skin they had. I remember how strange it was to hear that coloured people were not allowed to mix with whit. My best friend at school was Patrick his mum explained racism to me. I think l was about six. She didn’t use the word racism just said they were different. I really didn’t get it at all how were they different? The whole thing is still mad to me.

[@RangerRickTV]

Ya... It was just a different time back then I guess. Today, the only color that matters now is green unfortunately.

[@Thebulldogking]

​@@RangerRickTVwhat did u mean by unfortunately 🤔

[@therealjayseh]

I don't know how you can breathe in that air without vomiting. I couldn't do it

[@magdump4456]

I can't believe they just left things as they were without trying to recoup some of the loss financially! Even that pink casket was once worth a lot of money brand new

[@RangerRickTV]

I heard recently they cleared everything out.

[@kylesweetin7139]

He should have opened up the casket to see if anyone was left in it

[@kylesweetin7139]

​@@RangerRickTV was there a body in the casket

[@robertmailhos8159]

That herse earned its wings while carrying a mystery Pink casket the song Pink Cadillac by Aretha Franklin comes to mind while you flimed it

[@SupersonicChip]

Those are not baby caskets...they are scaled down vault models to help the family decide what option they may want.

[@historyiwitness5915]

Dimery & Rogers is still in biz, has a website, etc. You'd think they'd go clean this up.

[@hangsolow216]

Where are they located?

[@kenzieuchiha1191]

​@hangsolow216 They have more than one funeral home, the one that is abandoned is Kingstree, South Carolina I believe.

[@historyiwitness5915]

Sorry didn't see this@@hangsolow216 they are located at 404 E Main Street in Kingstree, SC.

[@hangsolow216]

@@kenzieuchiha1191 Thank you very much👍🏻

[@lindaweimer9651]

[@nikkocara5982]

Caskets are usually nailed shut when there’s body inside

[@1cremate]

Caskets are locked with a special key, not nailed shut.

If was 1800s, they were nail bone😂😂

If there were a gas leak maybe you shouldn't be using a non-intrisically safe flash light!

[@wondergranny2299]

Them tadpoles were maggots. A dead body was covered up in that bathtub, and it looked like a dead body rotted beside that bed.

[@RangerRickTV]

It smelled like dead bodies for sure.

[@AudiophileTommy]

Those are mosquito larva

[@AudiophileTommy]

If it were gas you would definitely have smelled it .

[@rossincognito273]

Bravo it’s fun to look at the darkside of things sometimes

Would have loved to know the dates on the newspapers in the back of the hearse

WOW!!!

I wonder how much back taxes are. I would love to have it

[@janamathis4729]

Some of the small containers may have been for cremated remains due to the shape of the top.

[@janeorso1059]

While working at a funeral home, one must be on call 24 hours daily, to be ready to collect the bodies of the deceased from places such as nursing homes. Reasons to have a sleeping quarters. If you read back just a few decades into Black American history you will find information that should enlighten you deeply .

[@ToniaLenza-bs5cv]

I love that hurst

Why take it if you are not going to try & get some of your money back on it?

Hey Rick The small caskets That you've seen May have been For cremated remains Early this year I lost my cousin and he was cremated and his remains where in a box that look like that You seen some pretty gross stuff in that funeral home.

[@RangerRickTV]

Thanks for filling me in.

[@MyMelinaaa]

That furniture could have been donated smh very beautiful stuff before it sat and got dirty I don't understand how someone could just leave things to rot away like that..sad 😢

[@Agentsugarplum]

No not the fridge....

[@Amaleen6]

What a sad, weird place. It looks like it was probably a very nice establishment at one time, in spite of the 13-year-old Chinese takeout leftovers in the fridge.

[@gailspaw5521]

[@jumpman71]

Dumb ass racist

[@tomaszgulbas6586]

what is that creapy music ?

[@smurf1Smurfet]

i believe the small caskets are for either babies or remains of bodies that is found! new sub! ❤

[@AudiophileTommy]

The small boxes are samples of burial vaults ,you put the casket down into the vault and then the top is sealed onto it then the dirt goes into the grave .The vault samples are miniature because they weigh a ton and it’s not feasible to have them on display .You choose which one you want from the samples.

[@user-op8bj2kj8w]

not baby caskets they are for ashes after cremation

[@lhamp92]

Stay out of shit that ain’t yours

[@jenniferwilliams4462]

I am familiar with this funeral home being from Union which is about 40 minutes to Greenville, love you do my familiar surroundings with all its history

[@hangsolow216]

Do you have a address possibly ?

[@seekerofthetruth6257]

The little ones that look like baby caskets are for cremation I believe . They put your remains in a plastic bag then in an urn. Stay safe everyone
