Museum of Funeral History

I've never been to the Museum of Funeral History .

This unique tribute to mortuary is located in a Houston neighborhood. It is set in what might have been an industrial park. The exhibits are located in a hangar sized room. The rest of the builiding houses "Undertakers University".

The displays are eye catching novelties of the funeral world. Here you can find a Japanese hears, a 1916 hearse bus, or a prop from Cyrano de Bergerac. There is a tribute to Lincoln, Kennedy and King Tut.

You can even buy souviners before leaving. Perhaps you could use a coffin shaped putter, or a coffin charmed necklace, or better yet, a chocolate casket candy bar.

That I'd like to see.
