Comics chart the pop culture of the era while the magazine gives us an indication who was making the news 

The house also has toys dating back to the 1950s as well as from the 60s, 70s and 80s 

It appears that the house is frozen in time, said the photographer who took these pictures 

While some items show their age, others such as this Little Princess comb and mirror look perfectly preserved 

Old comics, pop culture items and even wedding photos litter the house which looks to have been left under quick circumstances.

Freaktography said: ‘This incredible abandoned house has been left to slowly rot after the apparent passing of both residents of the home.

‘It’s a real time capsule and holds more treasures than I could ever try to mention.

‘There are toys that date back to the 50’s, through the 60’s, 70’s, and all the way to the 80’s and 90’s.

‘It also has a stellar record collection that starts with early jazz and country and continues through the decades stopping somewhere in the mid 80’s.

The house was filled with garbage bags filled with clothes, magazines, board games and personal items including birth certificates.

‘Stacks upon stacks of old magazines that document an entire history of pop culture through the generations, including what looks like every TV guide ever printed.

‘Buried beneath stacks of filled garbage bags, piles of magazines, clothes and furniture sits entire an family history with original birth certificates, original black and white wedding photos and a teenage girls bedroom with Platinum Blonde posters still on the walls.

‘All through this amazing abandoned house I was finding bits of pop culture history from the 70’s into the 80’s from old Barbie dolls, magazines with ET on the cover from 1982, comic books, board games that are so well preserved they would no doubt fetch a lot of money.’
