This little book is a repository of intriguing, fascinating, obscure,
strange and entertaining facts and trivia about the one certainty in
all our lives - death. Within this volume are some horrible,
unfortunate and downright ludicrous ends. Find out what body parts of
the departed great and famous are still with us (and, in some cases,
what they sold for). Learn of odd last requests, burials, epitaphs and
death rites from around the world, as well as the strange fates of
some cadavers – and a whole host of horrible tales about mummies,
vampires, zombies, auto-icons and body-snatchers. Anyone brave enough
to read this book will be entertained and enthralled and never short
of some frivolous fact to enhance a conversation or quiz! With 50
chilling illustrations, get out of your crypt and buy it whilst you
can!
