I work with the dead heres what happens at a funeral home late at night

A UK funeral director took to social media to share what his life is like working with the deceased — which includes some spooky encounters and many one-sided conversations.I’ve personally always wondered how someone gets into the profession of working with the dead and what their jobs are like.Luckily, a man named Jacob Walsh answered many of my nosy thoughts in several videos on his TikTok page.“Ghosts — have I seen them?
