El Salvador Funeral Home Is Offering A Unique Pink Barbie-Themed Coffin
As Barbie mania continues to sweep the world, one funeral home in El Salvador has boarded the Barbie bandwagon in a big way.
The Alpha and Omega Funeral Home in Ahuachapán is offering pink Barbie-themed coffins. The coffins are for people who want to take their obsession with the pop culture sensation to the afterlife. Each of the metal caskets is decorated with stars and features lining imprinted with pictures of Barbie.
According to WCVB, Alpha and Omega owner Isaac Villegas responded with, “I said, ‘We have to jump on this trend,'”
The funeral home owner says he’s already sold 10 of the coffins. “It has been a success.”
The coffin is the latest piece of bizarre Barbie merchandise to be released in Latin America. There have also been such products as Barbie lunchboxes, pink tacos, and pastries. Even Barbie-themed airplanes.
I guess if you are a superfan that may be what you’re looking for as a final resting place. I would believe that there would be a lot of chuckles at the service with a Barbie-themed casket. But hey to each his own. I have seen some stories of people being buried in many odd coffins. Many people are also buried with odd things inside the casket.
