Do not be concerned about visiting the National Museum of Funeral History -- it is not morbid or creepy at all.
This very tasteful, well-curated, and respectful museum is appropriate for all ages (even young children). They have age-appropriate activities for kids, including coloring pages and a scavenger hunt that gets them (or you) 10% off on purchases from the gift shop.
We especially enjoyed the waymarked 1951 Cadillac Landelet hearse on display here. It was classic, yet elegant, and MASSIVE.
The day Blasterz visited, the original 1967 Batmobile (from the TV series) was on display -- but this is a temporary exhibit only :(
There are several 20th century hearses on display here, but most of the hearses are from the 19th century.
