Chilling images show inside an abandoned roadhouse due to be demolished by the current owners scared of it being haunted by the previous owners who killed themselves within its sinister walls.
A roadhouse is a small service station in the US and Canada built to host travellers by providing food, drinks, fuel and accommodation. They were also known in the 1900s as stagecoach houses and were a place to rest and feed the horses for the night on long journeys.
According to locals this place is nicknamed the Devils Roadhouse located in Nova Scotia, Canada was built in 1912 and acted as an Inn for many years.
As well as providing food and beds, this stagecoach acted as an overflow for the local funeral home, with a death room for people to pass away inside, as-well-as a birthing room for delivering babies.
It is rumoured by locals that two people died in the same bathroom, both suffering fatal heart attacks.

It's due to be demolished by current owners due to spooky occurrences recorded there (mediadrumimages/@laceydecay)It was sold years later to a family, before passing to the eldest son. The unnamed son turned the building into his family home where he lived happily with his wife. Upon his wife contracting a rare type of cancer, she shot herself.
The man became a recluse, isolating himself in a trailer in the garden whilst renting out the home, refusing to enter the home. Not long after his move, the man committed suicide in his trailer. The family who moved in only stayed six months, with rumours circulating that they were chased out by ghosts and paranormal activity.
The current owner of the home dares not enter after dark due to paranormal activity in the home and does not reside there due to the decay of the building.
Several paranormal investigators have entered the home and discovered what they believe is evidence of paranormal activity, including silhouettes of ghosts, moving objects and strange noises.
