Are you creeped out by funeral webcasts?

Asked by whattodo2 (91points) July 29th, 2008

A friend who couldn’t travel to her relative’s funeral just watched the whole thing on her computer! The funeral parlor has a camera in the back (you’d never notice) for just this purpose.

That’s not really creepy, it’s innovative though; it offers people another way to deal with the death of a loved one.

Personally, I think family members would like them. Having them public may be weird, but I guess one does not have to watch them.

I’m creeped out by funerals in general.

I think its great. Although I’d much rather go to the funeral, but if I couldn’t is feel much more at ease watching it.
