Untouched Abandoned Funeral Home With Everything Left

Have you ever seen an old, abandoned building and wondered about its past or perhaps you were curious about what caused the place to become abandoned? Now imagine learning that the abandoned building was an old funeral home that closed its doors suddenly and unexpectedly. What secrets still lie within its walls, waiting to be uncovered? Well that is exactly what happened to us when we discovered this abandoned funeral home and it became our mission to get inside to unravel the mystery of what exactly happened here.
In a small town nestled deep within the rural countryside, there stands an abandoned funeral home that has become somewhat of a local legend. Once a place of somber ceremonies and final farewells, it now sits empty and forgotten, its once pristine facade now overgrown, weathered, and crumbling. The story of its sudden closure had baffled local residents for several years, sparking rumors of shady business practices, financial problems, alleged paranormal activity, and even unsolved mysteries. And with that etched into our minds, we knew that we had to make our way inside to see if we could uncover what exactly happened there.
The funeral home had long been a pillar of the community, providing comfort and solace to grieving families for generations.
But one fateful day, the doors were suddenly locked, the phones went unanswered, and the lights turned out. Rumors soon began to swirl about the abrupt closure, with whispers of financial trouble and scandalous secrets hidden within the walls.
The once bustling parking lot now sat empty, weeds growing up through the cracks in the pavement, and the grand facade of the building slowly falling into disrepair.
As we stepped into the old funeral home, a chill ran down our spines. The musty scent of decay lingered in the air, and shadows danced across the walls like restless spirits. In the dim light, we stumbled upon the fully loaded embalming room and unfortunately lonely human Cremains as well. We also found several broken down hearses and dusty old paperwork, each document holding a piece of the funeral home's history.
It seemed that the closure of the funeral home was definitely sudden and unexpected, but we could not find anything proving that it had closed due to financial troubles or some sinister scandal.
It appeared that the owner had tragically fallen ill and passed away, with apparently nobody else available or willing to take over the funeral home operations and succeed him in death. And albeit the history of this funeral home may not have a wild unsettling story behind its closure, but we can assure you with its eerie silence coupled with all that was left inside, this place truly speaks volumes as one of the best abandoned funeral homes that we’ve ever explored. That will take us to the conclusion of today’s video on the abandoned funeral home that suddenly and unexpectedly closed, leaving everything behind. We hope that everyone enjoyed another creepy funeral home from abandoned central.

Sorry got to call b******* on this one. The last date on any calendars 2010 or 2012. If that is the case there's no dust on any of the objects that he is showing. Not even on the benches or anything else. Also to put the place of the strap-on as part of a weird hey look at what we did here thing is sick. Take a closer look at everything within the video and there's no way this place has been abandoned for 10 years. Also there's no way that the power would have been left on for 10 years. And lastly it has been 12 years I can guarantee you those keys of those cars would not be sitting there with the people that know this place would be empty considering even a 20 to 30 year old used hearse goes for $20,000. Better luck next time trying to debunk people. You may get a lot of people to watch this on first go-round but do your due diligence and at least spread some dust around and make it look like it's been abandoned for at least one year.

[@abandonedcentral]

Lol call it whatever you want Kevin. This is very common and happens all over the USA. So Kevin, why don't you explain what happened since you know so much? If it closed in 2012, did we go in there and clean up the dust? Did we bring the 2012 calendar and it really closed last year? You sure thats not your strap on laying on the ground? That would make the most sense lol. Since you know so much about the property, were you the one who went and dusted it? I have so many questions for you Kevin. You think people just steal hearses because they are left abandoned? We have photographed over 50 abandoned abandoned herses. Why haven't they all been stolen? And we actually have the proof on this channel. Better luck next time not looking like a complete idiot talking about a situation you clearly have zero knowledge on. Going to pin this comment so true viewers can speak on this.

You must not be an avid explorer, or know much about dust. The primary ingredient in household dust is dead skin cells (sometimes also pet dander and outside contaminants brought in by people and animals). When a place is abandoned, there isnt enough human activity to create a thick layer of dust, though I guarantee that things feel grimy from whatever what left in the air. There is also evidence of abandonment from the rodent waste and mold/mildew from lack of temperature control/airing out. The vast majority of ppl do not want to steal and try to sell stolen vehicles, much less ones that stand out so much. The most stolen vehicles are not those that are flashy, or even all that expensive. From 2010-2020, the Honda Accord was the most popular on average. Who would be buying the hearses? Active funeral homes wouldnt, and private buyers would have a difficult time without a title.

I wonder if a crematorium or maybe funeral home is abandoned maybe they leave some blank forms that could be used to fake a death. I never hear of folks faking death but from my experience it wouldn't seem too hard to do if you know the tight person and are in the right area. My area only requires a coroner or doctor to pronounce death in certain circumstances.

When my brother passed away his wife couldn’t afford to get his ashes back so as a family we clubbed together to bring him home otherwise he would still be sitting on a shelf in a funeral home, so I’m wondering if that is the same situation as to why we see peoples cremains still left when funeral homes are regrettably abandoned.

do you have to be embalmed?

[@vanessahawarden9028]

@@cheiatianbriem2078No, but a lot depends on the length of time between death and the funeral, also the ambient temperature. Embalming arrests decomposition to a certain extent but cannot reverse it. In cases where the deceased is to be repatriated, airlines will insist on embalming before carrying the deceased as will the country receiving the body.

This was a good and gross 😂find. First time watching you, I’ll check out more. I’ve seen other videos done of abandoned funeral homes, one or two of them may have this place beat when it comes to the cremated ashes. One place, I couldn’t believe how many boxes of ashes were in the place. They were everywhere. You would think that some of that stuff would be considered bio waste and that federal laws would make them clean some of that stuff out of those places. It’s so sad that when I see people’s ashes laying around like that, either they passed alone and no one cared or no one bothered to try to find any family member. That’s what happened with my son’s estranged father. We found out he passed 2 years prior and they had my name on paperwork so, I don’t understand why someone didn’t try to contact me. But they have an indigent program there and they cremated him and they scattered his ashes in the Gulf of Mexico.

[@automatedelectronics6062]

It's unreal that this abandoned funeral home appears to be untouched, aside from from some rummaging. There are some pretty cool antiques and collectables there with nothing to do with the funeral business. The hearses even have value. Who owns this place and where is it located? I am always surprised when there are cremains left behind. Many cities/counties have a designated pauper cemetery area. The leftovers could be taken to the local coroner/public administrator and would be put into the pauper vault. With names on the cremains boxes, family could be sought out and maybe they might like to take care of the cremains themselves. Should relatives come looking for their loved ones, the public administrator would have records so the cremaines might be turned over to them.

[@talindakelley189]

Most places of an indigent program for people that doesn’t have anyone to claim remains. The bodies will be cremated and ashes spread somewhere. When my son’s estranged father passed and there was no relatives to claim (my son found out his dad passed 2 years prior) they cremated him and spread his ashes in the Gulf of Mexico. He was in Tampa Florida. Where this place is, who knows.

[@automatedelectronics6062]

@@talindakelley189 Around here in California, the ashes of indigent people are placed in a common vault in the pauper section of the cemetery. Unclaimed or not, there is no reason why ashes would be left at a funeral home. Possibly, they were being held hostage until someone paid the bill? From friends who had worked in the cremation industry, if there isn't enough capacity in the box or urn, the leftover ashes are put in the trash.

i know that ya’ll know real camera people so why don’t you get one? there are plenty of videographers out there that would probably love to help out with the channel. you can see it has stunted your growth probably, also the lack of intimacy with your audience is a hinderance as well. love ya’ll as explorers and photographers but this could and should be way better by now

[@abandonedcentral]

Well Jon, I will give some feedback to your comment. First, I've been a videographer for over 20 years. Bob on the other hand is still new to this, and isn't trying to become a cinematographer by any means. He is an explorer at heart who likes to document it. We're working on getting his filming better. As far as "getting" a videographer, theres very few people in the world I even care to explore with let alone take with us on vacations to the locations we spent so much time researching. Touching on the "stunted growth" you actually couldn't be more wrong. The channel has had its best year in the past 7 since we started it. While some people like yourself might not like raw videos, our audience and analytics show different. If you know anything about youtube, this video is ranked 3 outa 10 for this channel. A video ranking 3 is pretty damn good, and contributes to growing your channel. UGC content is bigger than ever, and even though it might not be for everyone, it actually out performs our documentary videos I spent weeks if not months editing. Again, thanks for your feedback, but we'll stick to what works for us at this channel.

That vintage equipment isn't out of place in a lot of firms. You would think they would update that stuff but really there is no point. Those enamel tables especially, they last forever and are such a good design that they still make them today in essentially the same look. Those resurfaced would fetch a pretty penny. Also you really should be wearing a respirator around those chemicals. Formalin (embalming fluid) is very volatile and even tho they're in bottles they can leak out.

So thats explainable. Typically with utilities unless their requested to disconnect they wont, so buildings and stuff that are no longer in use will have power til they are explicitly told to shut them off, and some states its illegal for a utility to touch them even if they suspect or know the building to be abandoned. This also means unless the owner notices, they will keep billing until its shut off too.
