The average length of a casket is 84 inches with a width of 28 inches and height of 23 inches. Basically, there is just enough room to lay... well, a dead body. No plasma television. No mini-bar. And certainly no bedroom set.
The tomb above isn’t your average casket, however. This is a death-room, and one equipped with a mirror (to watch your skin peel away) and a clock (to keep track of eternity). RIP!
