Published on February 24, 2008 - 68 Comments
[WARNING: This list contains images and concepts that will offend] We are currently in the season of Lent which is traditionally a time of penitence and contemplation of the end of life. This season of 40 days is marked by many death related festivals around the world. It seemed fitting that we should get in to the spirit of things (so to speak) and do a death related list. Some of the images in this list may offend readers.
10. Body Bags $20
These are authentic Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office body bags. If you don’t have a body to put in the bag, these are still useful for storage of old clothes or anything really. Don’t get caught out without a body bag! Buy one today!
9. Manson Family Victims’ Death Certificates $15.95
This is a complete set of death certificates for the victims of the Manson Family murderers. Included is the certificate for Sharon Tate, Abigail Folger, Voyteck Frykowski, Steve Parent, and Jay Sebring. These are normally $19.75 - you get a saving of $3.80!
8. ‘73 Cadillac Hearse $9,800
You will be sure to turn heads driving around town in this beautiful Cadillac hearse! Forget the Honda - buy a hearse! Extra features of this hearse are an iPod compatible stereo and a fold out bed in the rear.
7. A Corpse $525
Each corpse is Hand Crafted and is very durable in construction. Total attention to detail is seen in certain features such as nostril cavities and fingernails that are imbedded into the decaying skin. These are fully articulated corpses - that means you can move all of the body parts naturally. All corpses are made from liquid latex in order to produce an authentic feel.

oooooh! I’d totally snag the hearse!
2. theruggedman - February 24th, 2008 at 4:54 am
My breakfast is rising…oh god
3. satori - February 24th, 2008 at 5:01 am
…the autopsy babies aren’t REAL babies are they??? Damn I hope not.
4. ihavelegs - February 24th, 2008 at 5:30 am
I really really really want to live in the US now, I am so going to have that Hearse for cruising LA.
5. jfrater - February 24th, 2008 at 5:41 am
satori: heh no - they are not real babies
6. romerozombie - February 24th, 2008 at 5:44 am
I WLDZ LIK DESE PLZ
7. lola - February 24th, 2008 at 5:45 am
These remind me of the excellent film “Harold and Maude”. The boy is fascinated with death, re-enacting suicides almost daily to frighten his mother, and naturally he drives a hearse.
8. JJ - February 24th, 2008 at 6:08 am
I already own a skull.. my own. ahah-hah.. *ahem*
9. satori - February 24th, 2008 at 6:15 am
HAROLD AND MAUDE IS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER!!! Love that you mentioned it JJ!
10. Harsha - February 24th, 2008 at 6:49 am
At #10 its supposed to be a “body bag” not “body bog”!
How come skulls are so expensive?!!?
11. stevenh - February 24th, 2008 at 6:49 am
Just what I needed to see right after breakfast.
Thanks Jamie
12. jfrater - February 24th, 2008 at 7:06 am
stevenh: there is a warning there you know
13. romerozombie - February 24th, 2008 at 7:06 am
I know how I can get a free skull.
…..
14. Me - February 24th, 2008 at 7:07 am
Autopsy vids u can watch for free if u watch the autopsy series tht was shown on chanel 4 i think ive mentionedit once before but its a great series it was done by Gunter Von Hagens (think tht is the correct spelling)
15. Revolution - February 24th, 2008 at 7:49 am
That was twisted in a cool way. Well done
16. Mom424 - February 24th, 2008 at 8:00 am
Interesting what people will pay for. (I actually wouldn’t mind a body bag or 2, can you imagine baggage handlers at the airport?) I feel badly for the families of the Tate Murder Victims; kind of crappy that their deaths make money for someone.
Grand choice for a sunday morning!
17. Lewis - February 24th, 2008 at 8:01 am
Brilliant!HAhahahahaha!!!Funny out!
18. Bass - February 24th, 2008 at 8:30 am
very well done, jfrater.
only one question: Do you think the people whos corpes you can buy actually said “When I die, I would like my body to be sold for entertainment, and propped up in funny poses!”?
19. chris - February 24th, 2008 at 8:53 am
bass, they’re not real corpses. read the description
20. Juggz - February 24th, 2008 at 9:02 am
I am soo buying a body bag!
21. JwJwBean - February 24th, 2008 at 9:05 am
I didn’t check the prices, but I am sure all of this is expensive. Although $9800 for a hearse with a bed and ipod compatability isn’t too bad of a price.
22. jfrater - February 24th, 2008 at 9:06 am
JwJwBean: skulls are always around that price - I have been watching them for a few years because I want one. And the corpses and dolls are handmade - hence the high price
23. Amanda - February 24th, 2008 at 9:07 am
can you imagine buying one of the corpses and having it join in at Easter dinner?
24. JwJwBean - February 24th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Okay duh. Now I see the prices are right next to each title. I really am half awake.
25. Juggz - February 24th, 2008 at 9:11 am
JwJw-if i had 10k id be all over that hearse!
26. mklong - February 24th, 2008 at 10:17 am
great list, random but interesting. I just bought a body bag.
27. TheAwesome - February 24th, 2008 at 10:21 am
My friend already owns a hearse…really fits his personality.
28. Shag - February 24th, 2008 at 10:29 am
There was a guy in my high school had a ‘73 Cadillac Hearse that looked exactly like the one in the picture. Since those things came standard with a V8, you could hear him coming from miles off, so it was always a head turner. He also had a couch in the back which made for an excellent party car.
29. toolnut - February 24th, 2008 at 10:43 am
some of the things that people will buy/sell just amazes me.
Very morbid list JF. Way to get in the spirit. I want the autopsy video. I’ve always kinda been interested in autopsies. Now I just wonder if I could handle watching something like that.
30. Mom424 - February 24th, 2008 at 10:55 am
toolnut; they had a special on either A&E or The Learning Channel that had exactly that. I couldn’t watch it, and I’m not in the least bit squeamish. I have four sons, blood and guts comes with the territory. Intellectually I know it didn’t matter to the dead guy, but I couldn’t deal.
31. Juggz - February 24th, 2008 at 10:59 am
toolnut: if your really interested there are plenty of places online where you can watch autopsies
32. Kelsi - February 24th, 2008 at 11:35 am
Wow, Jamie, do you think Cafepress has body bags that you can get Listverse.com printed on? That would be awesome, haha! Interesting list…especially the DIY embalming kit.
33. stormy617 - February 24th, 2008 at 11:42 am
I love this list. I might have to get my mother a body bag for her birthday. I get her gag gifts a lot. She is a registered nurse and has a, hhhhhmmmmm I don’t want to say knack but I guess that will do, knack for knowing when a patient in the hospital is going to die.
Luckily it doesn’t happen very often. LOL
34. Daniel - February 24th, 2008 at 11:43 am
So how funny would it be if I left the embalming kit protruding right under the bed in the guest bedroom?
35. Csimmons - February 24th, 2008 at 12:14 pm
Im so getting a hearse and puttin hydrolics on it! but its gonna max out my card, Damn!
36. Csimmons - February 24th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
daniel: if i were ur guest, id be scared shitless!
37. Csimmons - February 24th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
im getting the body bags and self embalming kit for my brother for his birthday with a card that says “get well soon!”
38. Kai4a - February 24th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Just to be a stickler, shouldn’t #2 read “be sure to check out your country’s import laws”? Sry, it’s a pet peeve of mine.
Cool list. When I was a teenager I dreamt of buying a hearse. I ended up getting a Toyota. I really gave up on being an eccentric way too easily. Regrets…
39. Angelina - February 24th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Morbidly awesome list!! I love it! DIY embalming kit for the Funeral Director in all of us. . . Classic.
40. goof_ball - February 24th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Wow, CREEPY!
41. JwJwBean - February 24th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
I forgot to put that I really like this list. I wish I had enough money to buy a corpse. I love decorating for Halloween. It would go wonderfully. Especially since Halloween is on a Friday this year and I am thinking PARTY!
42. Denzell - February 24th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Gruesome (but interesting) list! I wonder if I can scare the pants off my brother if I put the corpses, the skulls, and the autopsy babies in his closet and on his bed? (with matching red food coloring for a very bloody effect)
43. DiscHuker - February 24th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
a guy that lived down the hall from me in the dorm in college was way into this stuff before “goth” was a subculture. back then he was just creepy.
he had the hearse, with a skull for a hood ornament. always wore a black trench coat. had his canine teeth medically sharpened and he slept in a coffin in his room.
in retrospect, seems that the hearse was just a good fit. don’t think he would have looked right in a honda civic.
44. SarahJ - February 24th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
love this list!!
45. Sandra - February 25th, 2008 at 2:32 am
i thought all those were interesting until i saw the baby doll, omg, wtf?? And yeah, sad that death certificates are being sold. thats just wrong.
46. heavybison - February 25th, 2008 at 2:56 am
I always wanted a skull for an ashtray. Finally my dream will come true!!
47. Jaffa - February 25th, 2008 at 3:05 am
4: Wow, really? I mean… And you even posted a picture from it? Wow…
2: I thought that was illegal. Well, should be I guess.
Good list though!
48. Drogo - February 25th, 2008 at 4:10 am
There are clubs for people who are hearse owners. I visited the website of one. I forget its name, it was a few years ago.
I heard that the reason for the LA body Bags was because LA County meant to order 200 body bags from their supplier, but accidentally ordered 200 cases of bags. They couldn’t return them so they decided to sell them.
49. diochick - February 25th, 2008 at 6:52 am
My father owns a Hearse. We would use it to go everywhere and funny looks would follow. When he moved to Mormon country he got a warmer reception than expected!
50. JwJwBean - February 25th, 2008 at 7:44 am
The mormons have no problem with the dead. They babtise them.
51. Joss - February 25th, 2008 at 9:34 am
#1 is gross gross gross.
52. dofnup - February 25th, 2008 at 10:17 am
I love the hearse, too!! Especially the foldout bed … that is AWESOME!
53. endomental - February 25th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
You really have to wonder about who buys some of those items.
54. jrjb - February 26th, 2008 at 2:56 am
#9 - pretty tasteless.
For a second I thought the ad for Navy chaplin was part of this list!
My uncle is a mortician. Nothing like taking a few hits of weed in my younger days while in a funeral home.
55. Ian - February 26th, 2008 at 3:37 pm
Hahaha I’d LOVE to get one of them corpses, I’d keep the curtains open, put the body in a chair in front of the window and plant a knife on his heart, just to tick people off
56. StormyGirl - February 27th, 2008 at 11:44 am
This list is gross, the bodies, the babies and hearse!!!! Not as funny as the Amazon list.
57. Salah - March 29th, 2008 at 2:05 am
Skulls for sale on ebay, too. Or skulls.unlimited.com. Or www.anthropolos.com.
58. Mike - March 29th, 2008 at 11:41 pm
Wow!!! #1 scared the crap out of me.
59. VilleValoGirl - April 4th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Lmao.
I want Dracula’s coffin.
[:
60. Polly Odyssey - April 21st, 2008 at 9:09 am
Psh, who needs to buy a skull? I can get one for free…problem is that once I get it I won’t be alive anymore…
61. Taranis - April 24th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
That autopsy video reminded me of a story:
In Anatomy our teacher made us watch a human dissection video, it was made by the dude who does BodyWorks. It was cool, except for the fact it was 50minutes of a german cowboy playing with a dead person. On top of that some of the comments our teacher was making didn’t help the situation at all. One of them being “I wonder if people taste like steak…it looks like steak…well, it kind of has more of a fish texture, but with a steak colour…I’m hungry now..” good times…good times….
62. some one - May 3rd, 2008 at 6:58 pm
the baby really scared me…
63. Mark - June 6th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
I nearly threw up when I saw the autopsy video. Then again, just minutes ago I went nuts with cookies, donuts, and potato chips.
64. Madi Malice - June 17th, 2008 at 3:35 am
I soooo want an autopsy baby doll, and a corpse, and a coffin! lol, seriousley…my mom already agreed to buy me a hearse when I’m old enough to drive.
65. Drogo - June 17th, 2008 at 3:43 am
I would love to have a hearse too, I’m just dying to get into one…
66. ericxdraven26 - June 21st, 2008 at 6:31 pm
i would buy a hearse(they ARE badass), but the thought of driving a car a dead body has been in the back of puts me off a little bit
67. autumnaprilamber - July 2nd, 2008 at 10:47 pm
okay…vomiting.
68. colin - July 4th, 2008 at 4:41 am
are people really allowed to buy and sell human skulls?
thats a bit…odd.
another great list! autopsy dolls looks like Chucky!
