Michigan Hearse Fanatics Roll Into Hell

Hearses are always welcome in Hell...Michigan that is. The Hell-based organization Just Hearse ‘N Around, which is the most infamous club for hearse enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, will be hitting the roads of Hell this weekend for a parade that is part of the 13th annual Hellfest festivities.

Around sixty car collectors are set to show off their dark sides this weekend, according to a report from The Livingston Daily, with hopes of reclaiming their 2011 Guinness World Records title in which they drove 51 hearses in the parade. This year, the group intends to beat the reigning champions from the Netherlands, who recently broke the Hell group’s record with 107 hearses.

Although many people look forward to this event, there are still those who find it a bit bizarre. "I kind of laugh a little bit to myself when people tell me it's creepy or morbid," said the club’s co-founder, Andy Mosier. "I prove them wrong by taking them for a ride.”

From the Hellfest website:

The show is open to all makes and models of hearses, regardless of their condition. (This is not a Concours or PCS show.) We just want you to come out, show off your rides and enjoy the day with like-minded enthusiasts. We also welcome flower cars, Ghostbusters and any other horror, goth or steam punk themed vehicles.
