Aww this sounds very nice actually . My aunt lives next to a big cemetery and i allways walk the dogs there when k visit. If there weren’t so many headstones it would be just like a park. If only other people would agree with your idea.

It’s no different than dumping bodies in a cemetery. Dirt is dirt, morbid way of making money you say but then what is you’re take on an undertaker?? Somebody (ha, body!) has to do it. Back in the old days families buried their kin in the yard so what’s the difference? Personally, I think it’s a good way of keeping your loved ones close and you can keep flowers fresh; no excuse not to visit their graves. My Pop wants to be buried in his yard next to his old dog….that’s old people for you.

As far as I can ascertain, the EPA doesn’t really regulate body burial on land.

What’s with the elaborate ceremony. A group of people setting up funeral homes, charging a fortune to stuff a body in a box and put it in a hole. The prairies are dotted with graves from our forefathers. Long forgotten, ground up by the huge plows and planted over. Every yard should have its own burial plot. Talk about wasting space, hundreds of acres reserved for dead things. Turn them into public parks. Have a gardeners shed with a wall plaque listing the bodies buried, but never mind where. No headstones, nothing, just a lovely park.

Sorry to burst everyones bubble, burying a body in a trashbag is not e.p.a. compliant thus making illegal under federal law. But if you bury it sealed in a vault that will contain the bodily fluids, then you might just have an idea that might work. Hell, you might also acquire some state funding for maintence.

Jimmy Page paid a huge sum of money to buy Aleister Crowley’s castle, and there are a huge number of ghost hunters and goths who would figuratively kill to live in a place that has a body or two buried in the back yard. People are into the creepy weirdness because people are all a little creepy and / or weird in their own way. The history of the property would be a selling point, not a resale hampering secret or something to be kept from potential buyers.

Honestly, when it comes to selling this thing, if I were Noam I’d advertise it as the place where people buried their grandmother. I’ll bet he gets more showings than the “no dead folks” properties, and I’d almost guarantee a bidding war between local Dexter fans and Glenn Danzig (a la Aqua Teen Hunger Force).
