But now, the previously plush building lies in wreck and ruin, with parts of the ceiling crumbling away and debris falling from the walls.

The chilling photos were taken by a photographer called Johnny Joo, who took a trip to the creepy home earlier this year.

Johnny, 26, said: "It was incredibly eerie, especially given the macabre sculptures all over the place.

"They were scattered throughout the house, along with documents and pieces left behind by the funeral home - including body bags, embalming fluids, old papers and notebooks, and possessions of the deceased."
