Did you know there's a difference in a coffin and a casket?

Let’s clear something up—because Hollywood has been lying to you for years…
A coffin is that spooky, Dracula-approved box with the pointy top and bottom. Very dramatic. Very Transylvania. Not super practical.

A casket, on the other hand, is the one you’ll actually see at a funeral. Rectangular, spacious, and designed for comfort, dignity, and (importantly) fitting through doorways without a geometry lesson.

So if you’re picturing a vampire nap pod… that’s a coffin.
If you’re planning something for real life… that’s a casket.
