Classic Hearse Show

We attended a Hearse Show at the Laurel Hill Cemetery last weekend.  Beautiful event on a breezy summer day.  So many gorgeous hearses, so many hilarious decorations.

We entered a raffle to win a full-size heavy metal casket - bright orange with black handles.  The real deal for any Halloween-loving corpse.  I have never been so relieved by not winning something.  In theory, a heavy orange casket seems appealing and exciting.  But then you try to imagine where it'll live in your house.  Using it as a coffee table is always a neat thing, but I already have one (a coffee table) that I dig, and this was the kind with a rounded lid (not a coffin)...  my drinks would slide onto the carpet.  Plus, at 220 pounds, it'd be a pain to move around.  Not to mention anything about getting it home from the cemetery without a hearse.  Or pallbearers.

Sometimes I'm a buzzkill.

Here are some photos we took at the event. 

Haunted Hidden Hollows

Oh, to have the chance to haunt an old lawsuit-hungry rickety path through the woods.

Exploring An Abandoned Funeral Home

Pretty neat video below of two people checking out the very-stocked property of an abandoned funeral home.  Hi Res too, so it felt like I was watching a modern found-footage horror film, where nothing happens.

Suspiria

Take them, O Death! and bear away
Whatever thou canst call thine own!
Thine image, stamped upon this clay,
Doth give thee that, but that alone!

Take them, O Grave! and let them lie
Folded upon thy narrow shelves,
As garments by the soul laid by,
And precious only to ourselves!

Take them, O great Eternity!
Our little life is but a gust
That bends the branches of thy tree,
And trails its blossoms in the dust!
 

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
