Abandoned Funeral Home

[@melissaivy5199]

This place is amazing!!! Love the furniture and architecture it's just beautiful!!!! Thank you for this!!!

[@ExploringwithJoseCalifornia]

Melissa Ivy thank you for watching

[@jeremyjones2750]

Thats one of the things I love most about these videos is the architecture. Im a huge fan of the old Victorian homes as well.

[@Deeluvpara56]

It looked like late 60s and early 70s decor. I can't believe they left all those older antiques there. Some of the things you shown were worth some high dollar prices. Did they die or disappear to leave things like that. Thats crazy.

The picture of the baby made me sad, it makes me think these people left in a hurry. I don’t think many people would just leave a framed picture of their baby like that.

Many beautiful antiques could and should be salvaged from this place and saved from the same fate as the building itself.

[@dhare1960]

The dolls are creepy.

[@ExploringwithJoseCalifornia]

Dave Hare yes they are

[@Decgyrrl]

Lord the whole thing gave me the willies. It seems as tho it was handed down from gen 2 gen. It may have started out as an old victorian FH, from the looks of some of the furniture, especially that large vase. But I gotta tell ya that place is spooky even daylight! Yikes 😨☮

[@kole6371]

Y would someone abandon such a beautiful house? It doesn't matter what it was b4, all it needs is some TLC, and a good family to make it a home...

[@SirIkeMedia]

Dude you're brave. I wouldn't go in there by myself.

[@jackiecarle6871]

OMG, I’m a clairvoyant and felt lots of spirit activity here, I had a strange feeling of many a soul still lingering in desperation to pass over into the holy light, something happened here, I feel a lot of negativity around an individual that once owned the place when it was an active funeral company, wrong doing, not embalming the deceased as they were supposed to, or rushing the procedure and getting it wrong, neglecting the deceased, so many are still trapped there, that’s probably the cold spots you felt, thanks for sharing someone should go here, a professional paranormal team try to cleanse the place, do some spirit box, EVP sessions, I feel they would get many souls calling out to them for help. I also feel like an individual that had lived in the living quarters had passed on feel like he worked and helped out there, taking many secrets of the unnatural way the funeral home was being run. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🙏💜💜💜💜

[@rebeccaann5364]

Omg look at the antiques. And those cool chairs wow.

[@cythurman]

Oh my gosh would love to have those dolls and some of those antiques there! Can you give me the name of this place so maybe I can find out who owns it now. Maybe they would sell them? It always amazes me what people leave behind. Families just don’t care anymore about remembering the past.

[@ahsulak]

Creepy place! A lot of nice furniture in there especially the casket

[@gloriahanes6490]

The funeral director probably passed away with no living relatives. A few clues are present: assisted walker 1:42 in the kitchen, 3:21 old photos left out to view, 3:28 the bedsheets removed possibly soiled, old time items around the house with old furniture. Don't get me started in the basement .... creepy but the man liked bling! Also, based on the kitchen appliances and the push button phone the home has been abandoned since 1990.

[@ashleighray7503]

Gloria Hanes I would say later then that because of the box of swiffer mop pad I saw

Thank you ! Second time I've viewed this video, I seem to remember the uploader had some association with RnK but I forgot to subscribe back then. @4:00 very nice Arts and Crafts Tall clock/Grandfather..Newhaven/Cushman and worth a tidy penny, not as much as the beautiful 200yr old Dragon Throne chair @7:08 and 2 more in that room, I do hope this place wasn't vandalised.. there's a 1920's through 40's feel ruminating through the quality of fixtures and fittings, and those doors !!

[@tammygouletschrader8785]

Glad to see you back. Hope your doing well.

[@lashelleranson8925]

To be honest, if the stuff is actually abandoned like that and nobody doesn't claim it, I would take some of the furniture. I'll come back at night with a truck and start loading some things.

[@cindyhoelderle4223]

Someone should recuse the doors and any wood furniture left behind.

[@michaeloram6957]

For it to be that cold only on the first floor that place is hauntedthat's why they think that people left and just left everything there

It's cold downstairs because there are alot of souls lingering there. U may or may not feel them. But u will have the different temperature change.

[@ClutchingPearlz]

Any information on when and why it was abandoned. Very sad.

[@natebroadus8474]

That's always the first question that comes to mind, especially if everything looks intact. Why would someone leave a place like this so suddenly?

[@getdoeful]

Sorry that I am late! But this is the "Best" urban exploration video that I have seen in 10 years. The site alone was amazing which is the point of urban exploring (no different than running into someones pyramid ). But there's another factor that a real U/E doesn't care about. And that is Spirits! Its all about the location (funeral home, man you are spiritually strong). I stopped exploring due to a spiritual experience in learning that you don't have to believe, but when you see, hear or feel something paranormal you'll accept the reality that spirits are real. So I'd rather watch. You are a true "G"! I don't get scared often, but that embalming table and room alone (10:54, :58, 11:01-11:08,11:13, 11:25, 11:36, 11:45, 11:55 the whole room) had a stomach wrenching vibe. That one chair facing the opposite direction in the basement was omen creepy. It was voices throughout this whole video, and I know it was genuine because you kept quiet and continued to explore. SORRY for the long winded comment but excellence recognizes excellence. Keep at it (but be safe)! Go back @ night.

[@ExploringwithJoseCalifornia]

Thank you so much for the kind words you are on point with your entire statement 💯🙏

Hold up. Someone else explored this funeral home on another video. There were dolls on the bed and one doll kept changing directions (someone kept moving the doll). This guy must have explored it first because it is much cleaner and no vandalism and spray paint. I also remember that old TV and the records on the floor in front of that old stereo. Nice job though.

Those embalming chemicals are hazardous. I wonder why they were just left behind? Back when they were new, they were worth like twenty bucks a bottle.

My favorite spot I have that doll at home the owner of the building was removing everything at the end , it’s empty now

[@austinteutsch]

So, the beds are for necrophiliacs? The reason the family that lived there left is one day, an old lady was getting ready to get embalumed and she stood up and demanded to know the cost? Word has it she got mad and left, looking for a cheaper funeral home.

[@LCMary62]

Hey, Jose! Been a while. I love your videos. I'm in Chicago, too. 11:02 that's the table they would put the bodies on to drain them of blood and put the embalming fluids in. Yikes! 11:06 that's red formaldehyde. They would put red dye in the formaldehyde so that the bodies would look more lifelike and less pale when they were displayed. Seriously. (See "Ask a Mortician" she has a great KZbin channel. But, she hates embalming. Her influence is one of the reasons I didn't have my poor mama embalmed when she died.) The Viewing Parlor looks like something out of the early 1900s or something. Weird. The place looks so creepy. I believe you were feeling cold spots. 13:50.... OMG!!!! FTR, you were trying to open the coffin from the side with the hinges. If you had been able to get to the other side you could have opened it. I understand you were creeped out. I would have been. It looked like there was more than one coffin in there. Understandably creepy. Excellent Explore! One of your best. Jose! Fantastic work. Warmly, Mary in Chicago

This looks too phony. The thing to do is try to track down the owners and find out if it was really abandoned and why it was abandoned. Most funeral homes have living quarters upstairs. And the morgue is usually in the basement.
