A mysterious photographer known as Freaktography recently ventured into an abandoned house with no idea of what he’d find. As an urban explorer, he typically explores abandoned buildings…but this excursion was different.
Normally, his photos are a delightful and strange trip into the past. But, this time, he discovered something he didn’t expect.
Wandering into this abandoned house was an erie experience.

The former residents died back in the 1970s, and the descendants left it to rot and decay.

They also left the personal possessions strewn around the house.

This created a true time capsule into the past.

Freaktography added these incredible photos to his upcoming photographic book on investigating abandoned houses. It’s quite something, and more than worth investigating on your own if you thought these photos were interesting. You should also see his understanding of the tragic family story. It’s much more interesting than finding the money.
