    not a new idea; the ancient Greeks and Romans had wax death masks to commemorate their fallen ancestors.
    but given how incredibly life-like these things are, they are waaaay more creepy.

    Anyone else reminded of those giant Barbie doll heads that you could put makeup on and style their hair...?

    No? Just me? OK, carry on then.

    If you're going to go creepy, might as well do the whole nine yards. That's why my ashes will be stored in a pallid bust of Pallas with a raven perched atop.

    Thou still unravished bride of creepiness,
    Thou foster child of decay and slow death,
    Pallid historian, that may express
    A severed head, ashes that once were Beth.

    This is an awesome thing to do to family you hate.

    I hereby bequeath my entire estate to my sister, provided that she keep this on her mantle for 10 years. And yes, I'll have someone check.

    Also, awesome Keats reference in the headline.
