About this listen
When the casket reached the front of the sanctuary, there was a loud cracking sound as the bottom fell out. And with a thump, down came Father Iggy.
From shoot-outs at funerals to dead men screaming and runaway corpses, undertakers have plenty of unusual stories to tell - and a special way of telling them.
In this macabre and moving compilation, funeral directors across the country share their most embarrassing, jaw-dropping, irreverent, and deeply poignant stories about life at death's door. Discover what scares them and what moves them to tears. Learn about rookie mistakes and why death sometimes calls for duct tape.
Enjoy tales of the dearly departed spending eternity naked from the waist down and getting bottled and corked - in a wine bottle. And then meet their families - the weepers, the punchers, the stolidly dignified, and the ones who deliver their dead mother in a pickup truck.
If there's one thing undertakers know, it's that death drives people crazy. These are the best "bodies of work" from America's darkest profession.

Excellent Story Excellent Narrators
The book full of funny, sad, hilarious tales was so good to listen too. Laughed, there were a few tears. The Narration was excellent for. It’s so important to have a sense of humour in the mortuary business,

Surprisingly sweet
Captivating short stories that are an insight into the hardest moments in people's lives. Excellent story telling dotted with idioms bringing the individuals and their world to life. It had me giggling out loud on my walk to work - the strange looks I got would have been a lot stranger if they knew the topic.
