"Grave Situations"
Enter the world of strange, funny and odd
articles I've found related to funerals & death.

I found this article about a man who couldn't bear to be without his wife - even after she died! So he got special permission to take her corpse home with him! Read on:

Here's cool looking coffin-shaped guitar case!

This is an antique casket plate that was attached to a casket lid

It's always good to be well prepared....just in case.

The Packard Company came up with the idea of a "Funeral Bus", a vehicle that disabled the need for long funeral processions. It held the casket, flowers and 20 mourners. Obviously, the idea didn't take.

I keep telling my kids to pick up their toys, but they never listen!

I guess it's true what they say about implants

AHH!!! ...THIS IS THE UGLIEST THING I EVER SAW!!!

Kinda' gives a new meaning to "Bowl 'Till You Drop!"

Ya' say you don't know what to do with those old coffins after a long night in the cemetery, digging up fiends and relatives?
Here's a few ideas!

This car was made from an actual coffin an a Volkswagon dune buggy frame and motor.

This plaque for the hearse's side window is pretty self-ecplanitory.
