Eerie photos reveal inside the Idaho quadruple murder house frozen in time trends now

A partially consumed cold coffee drink; a nearly empty bottle of over-the-counter medicine; a houseplant struggling for life; an unwashed frying pan containing a napkin, two steak knives and a spaghetti server.

They, alongside a stack of red Solo cups, several cereal bowls with spoons still in them and an empty microwaveable popcorn bag, are items that could be on a kitchen table in student housing anywhere in the country.

But these articles – shown in exclusive DailyMail.com pictures – represent the minutiae of the lives of five girls who until just 18 days ago were enjoying life sharing a home close to their University of Idaho campus.

Now three of them and one of their boyfriends are gone, leaving behind the objects of their everyday existence that now are on view through the windows of 1122 King Road, Moscow.

And as cops prepare to turn over the house where Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin lost their lives back to its landlord, the home is frozen in time – albeit it from less than three weeks ago.

At night the house is lit by an eerie glow coming through the top floor where Kaylee, 21, lived and died.

It emanates from a computer monitor in her bedroom, that, despite the dozens of investigators who have traipsed through the three-story home in the past days, no one has switched off.

On the screen, visible through the window, are the words 'No Network Detected'. The computer to which it was attached is in the Moscow Police Department custody as investigators hope it will help them find the depraved killer.

Kaylee, Maddie, 21, and Xana, 20, lived in the home with 19-year-olds Bethany Funke and Dylan Mortensen, who were spared during the attack. Ethan, 20, was visiting his girlfriend Xana when the killer struck.

The house where they died was known locally as a party house. Hints of that can be seen through the window to the main living area.

A row of red Solo cups is lined up on a white plastic table – a sure sign of beer pong parties.

Also on the table is an empty Bud Light lime beer bottle, a potato chip bag and a blue serving bowl.

On the back wall hangs a garland of artificial greenery complete with a 'Good Vibes' neon sign that remains illuminated.

A pink pastel abstract painting – clearly a girls' touch – hangs on another wall.

Underneath the painting stands a console table with holiday lights wrapped around it showing the students had their minds already on Christmas, even though the murders occurred 11 days before Thanksgiving.

The house is still cordoned off by yellow police tape. But the search inside has largely ended.

The house has given up whatever secrets it has as cops are no longer trudging through it, although they stand guard outside night and day.

Police have announced no suspects and have not found the murder weapon despite an intensive search.

Five snow-covered vehicles that had stood outside the house were towed to 'a more secure long-term storage location on Tuesday. There, officers will 'continue processing evidence' Moscow cops said.

Police continue to insist the four students were the victims of a 'targeted' killing, but cannot – or will not – say which one was the intended victim.

According to investigators, Maddie and Kaylee had been out at a bar and a food truck before returning home at about 1:56 am that Sunday.

Xana and Ethan had been at a fraternity house and returned home about the same time. Their other housemates, got back about 45 minutes earlier.
