12 WTF Coffins to Die For

Posted on 31 October 2008 by admin

Well, it's Halloween, so I'm feeling obligated to write a list about something Halloweeny. I received a tweet this morning showing hanging coffins, and thought they might fit well into a list of bizarre coffins.I have no idea if this list will interest anyone, but I was surprisingly intrigued (and shocked) as I did my research. Hope you enjoy!

#1.
The Egg Coffin

Gizmodo has a small gallery of crazy coffins, and this one caught my attention. I guess this egg would look nice next to your wicker couch.

#2.
The Coffin Calendar

UndergroundHumor.com: 2008 Sexy Coffins Calendar: Sneak-A-Peek

Nope, this isn't a joke. And I guess it's not really about the coffin on this one as it is about the fact that there's a 2008 version of a coffin calendar. Head over to Underground Humor for all the details.

#3.
Cajo-design Coffins

Modern & Contemporary Design Magazine / cajo-design coffins/ Products / DESIGNSPOTTER.COM

Ummm....WTF? I'm at a loss of words, but Design Spotter had this to say about this coffin, "The work of cajo-design starts where other designers give up. Designing beautiful coffins is an exciting but not easy task. Particularly in Germany innovation in the dying culture is blocked by the funeral parlour. Fortunately the open minded manufacturer of coffins Diefenbach and the Designer Carmen J. Breuker started their sensational cooperation."

#4.
Beer Can Coffin

Beer Can Coffin - Drinking Dead Or Drunk Dead - Born Rich

Oh, for the love of all things Canadian....like Pabst Blue Ribbon. An Illinois man named Bill Bramanti designed this coffin to look like a beer can....bet you can't guess what his favorite beer is. Thanks to bornrich.org for this gem.

#6.
Kiss of Death?

Going Out With a Bang

Oddly enough, I found this coffin on 30minutemeals.com. Not sure I'd be bookmarking too many recipes from the site, but they do have a long list of coffins for Going out with a Bang.

DIY Coffin

I swear I saw this at my local Ikea store. There's something very sick and twisted about building your own coffin.

#8.
Cardboard Coffins for the Tree Huggers

Coffins - Environmentally friendly customised cardboard eco-coffins & custom picture caskets

Creative Coffins offers a great selection of WTF coffins. Each one is made from 60% recycled paper plus wood pulp sourced from sustainable forests, contains only natural starch-based glues (no screws, bolts, tape, or other fittings), handles made from natural woven cotton, and is completely non-toxic. Better yet, you can have them custom designed — or choose from any number of beautiful designs already on the site.

Plastic Coffin

Half a Million Plastic Coffins? | Alternative News Sources

I have no idea how common these are, but they look very similar to the Tupperware stuff you see at Wal-Mart for your Christmas decorations. Whatever the case, Alternative News Sources posted this picture, explaining that the government ordered half a million of these. Follow the link for the rest of the story. I just liked the looks of the coffin.

#12.
The Hanging Coffins

The Hanging Coffins of Sagada | Crazy-Videoz

This is what you've been waiting to see. These are the hanging coffins I mentioned at the beginning of the post. They are in Sagada in Philippines, and I saw them on this site. I added a video from their site below.

    #11 would be great for long term storage of seasonal items. On January 1st load it up with all of your Christmas decorations, and on December 1st, get it back out of the basement. Just be sure to leave room for Grampa!
