Open Casket Bar and Grill

One thing leads to another. That's how I came up with this blog post. Last Friday I heard a short blurb on NPR about Hell, Michigan attempting to break the world record for the number of hearses in a parade. I couldn't let that go by without a little research.

Hellfest Style Camping

I found out that on the second Saturday of every September, Hell, MI is the home of Hellfest. There is a hearse show, food and art vendors, camping, and a bonfire. Don't worry, it's on my list for next year.

I furthered learned that the festival is sponsored by the Nightmare Cruisers Hearse Club located in Hell. Really, I'm not making this up. Finally, wait for it, The Nightmare Cruisers have an open casket bar and grill available for party rental. Yep. 

I'm so envious. I though my casket beer cooler was awesome. It just seems amateur now. Their open casket is mounted on a trailer, has a propane gas tank, 27 gallon capacity cooler, and an entertainment center with cd/dvd, am/fm, cell phone port and speakers. For an extra $1 per mile they say they'll travel to your location. Michigan to New England could get expensive. I'll bet that's round trip.
