Putting "Fun" Back into Funeral

Ahlgrims Funeral Home in Chicago suburb, Palatine, has a unique miniature golf course in the mortuary's basement.  The nine-hole course, "Ahlgrim Acres," includes obstacles such as a coffin on hole 2.  Meanwhile, screams and spooky music continuously play in the background.  

Miniature golf is offered by Ahlgrims as a standard part of their funeral package - and many take it.  The course is also used by local Shriners to hold meetings and initiations, though anyone can play as long as a funeral service isn't in progress (from Mortuary Management, July/August, 2000).
