A pair of rotting bodies were discovered inside a Brooklyn home Thursday morning after a pal of one of the tenant’s was met with an overwhelming stench at the door, police and sources said.

Police were called to the apartment for a wellness check on a 54-year-old woman after the unnamed pal went to the door to check on his friend because he hadn’t heard from her in weeks, according to sources and the NYPD.

That’s when he got a whiff of the smell at 640 Ditmas Aven. around 10:15 a.m. in Kensington and called police.

Sources said the woman was found with stab wounds all over her body and a decomposed man was nearby in the apartment she shared with her son.

It’s unclear if she died of the stab wounds because her body was so badly decomposed, sources told The Post.

Police have been called to the home numerous times for domestic incidents, according to sources.

The bodies were found Thursday morning.
