Dead People Propped Up To Look Like They Are Living It Up In The Latest Funeral Trend

Contrary to what these photographs might lead you to believe, the people in them are dead; they represent a special kind of funerary service that involves anything but laying down. Instead, the deceased are posed doing things that you’d see them doing while they were alive. Miriam Burbank is seen with a can of Busch beer and menthol cigarette between her fingers, while the body of Christopher Rivera is propped up in a faux boxing ring. These strange and creepy displays aren’t anything new, although they are unusual.
