The Last Funeral Was The Owners | Abandoned Funeral Home

  • In today’s video we will be taking you inside an abandoned funeral home that left everything behind. The funeral home, which was located in the southern United States, originally opened its doors in the early 1960’s and the funeral business was run from the first floor of large building with other retail surrounding it, which was a unique set up.
    The funeral home was owned and operated by the patriarch of the family, who successfully ran the business for years before he retired and handed the funeral home down to his son. The son then successfully operated the funeral home for another 30 years before he eventually became too ill and had to temporarily close the funeral home. Unfortunately, his health did not improve and he ultimately passed away. When the son passed away, his family decided to use the funeral home one more time for their beloved family member to celebrate his life and accomplishments. The funeral home held the sons memorial service in 2018 and was permanently closed right after. It has sat abandoned ever since.
    The best part of this explore was that since the funeral home was originally only supposed to be closed “temporarily” but ended up closing permanently, it seems that they literally got up, left everything as it was, locked the doors, and never returned. This funeral home had it all….and when we say all, we mean ALL!!!
    First off, they left the embalming room completely intact with all the embalming tools, equipment, and supplies. There was makeup, styrofoam heads, formaldehyde, artery fluid, skin compound, tissue builder, gurneys, a body lift, and of course the porcelain slab.
    The second part of the explore was the chapel with all the chairs set up for a memorial service, maybe even from the owner’s own memorial service. At the front of the chapel there was a casket on display, making this chapel a great and also creepy room to photograph and explore.
    Next there was a room with several old embalming tables, multiple catafalques which are casket holders, and most shockingly there was several boxes of real human cremains, complete with names and death certificates.
    The last memorable part of the explore was the garage, where we found three different black Cadillac hearses, all of which had not been touched in years. The best one was the classic early 1960’s hearse, but there was also one from the 1980’s and then another one from the early 2000’s. It is not everyday that we get to explore a funeral home with three hearses, in addition to everything else that was left behind. And because of this reason, the funeral home will go down in the books as one of the best abandoned funeral homes that we have ever explored. We hope that you all feel the same way.
    As we come to the end of another abandoned funeral home video, we want to thank you all for stopping by and checking it out.

    Great video! That nasty looking device on the embalming table is called a trocar. It is connected to a suction source and is employed to suck out all the solids and liquids in the abdominal cavity. The gurneys are normally referred to as mortuary cots. The stands on which the caskets are placed are known as biers or catafalques. The wheelie folding device usually kept in the hearse is called a church truck. Those caskets without liners are called ceremonial caskets, or rental caskets. (you can see the foot end is hinged down). The deceased is lain in an inner liner, which is then taken to the crematorium, the outer shell is re used many times.

    It's sad to see abandoned privately owned FH's sit for years. Very few people are cut out to work in this industry. A bank will eventually make the decision to salvage everything & bulldoze the building. The hearses will probably go to auction or the junk yard. Abandoned cremated remains is a common practice. Families must pay up front for direct cremations & are contacted repeatedly by the FH's when they come from crematories-but they're ghosted. Some families don't make plans for disposition of cremated remains, so they will ignore all attempts at contacting them, & the cremated remains are shelved for years. When the bank takes over, the cremated remains will be taken to the medical examiner-coroner for disposition that will probably be commingled burial in a community grave with the cremated remains of the indigent. The vacant lot will sit for years until a developer buys it. Who knows? It could be a KFC or Burger King in 10 years.

    Those clear plastic clothes hanging near the metal gurney are to dress the deceased in before putting on clothes over the top. They catch any body leaks. If you ever go to a viewing and touch someone’s arm you can sometimes hear the plastic move.

    Hypodermic embalming is a supplemental method which refers to the injection of embalming chemicals into tissue with a hypodermic needle and syringe, which is generally used as needed on a case-by-case basis to treat areas where arterial fluid has not been successfully distributed during the main arterial injection.

    It's sad the the cremains are left unclaimed......but all too common. I don't think there's a funeral home in business that doesn't have at least a couple of unclaimed cremains.....it happens more often than you think.....no next of kin or friends.....some funeral homes have a special deal with a local cemetery to bury the unclaimed in a section just for them. Giving them a dignified final disposition.

    The cremation remains may not necessarily be left behind. I work in the funeral home and just as a person that is alive has rights so does someone that is dead. If someone is cremated and the family never claims that then by law the funeral home cannot dispose of them.

    I still believe authorities should be notified that the ashes and documentation are still there. They should send a team into sorting it out. I think by the look of some of the rooms the family may have put things out as a display and that's why the note was there to say look but don't take anything It may be away the family has decided to allow the processes and things that they used since usually it's close guarded. In some countries or states.
