Standing Corpses in Victorian Post Mortem Photography

Added 2017-01-12 19:09:47 +0000 UTC

You all are a VERY death knowledgable bunch, and I figured you probably have known, and maybe even collected post mortem photographs for years! So I didn't just want to do a general video on the subject.

But, I think this is a unique, myth-busting angle– specifically the "standing" post mortems that appear online and for sale on Ebay. How often did posing corpses like this happen? Did it happen at all? WATCH ON, DEATHLINGS.

This is my second upload in two weeks, thanks Patron Accountability Partners!
