Yes!! I'd love to go see it! It's based on actual events too! They once did a show about it on Discovery Channel's "A Haunting". I think it happened inside an old funeral home that was re-converted back into a house and this family bought it and moved in. One of the kids was real sick (if I remember correctly).

When I was a kid, I went to school with a girl whose dad was the town's undertaker. Although there were separate entrances, their living area was in the same building as the funeral home. EEEK.
There were 2 funeral homes in town. In the other one, someone spent the nite with the body. I'd remember hearing my grandma talk about so-and-so is going to spend the nite at the funeral home. I was always like---what the heck!!!?? I didn't ever want that job.
Not long before my time, tho, people kept their loved ones' bodies in the house for viewing until burial.

Some people still do it, around here anyway. You really don't see it too often in the city, but they still do it out in the rural areas. Not often. But sometimes.
David In Indy:
FINALLY! >:(
They must have had a game run late again. :P
I think Luke's Mom faints in this episode.
David In Indy:
God, I hope Luke and Margie don't get eliminated tonight because of that. :(
Now I'm worried about it.
