Dying addiction

A Brazilan man has revealed he is addicted to funerals.

Luis Squarisi, 42, from Batatais, has attended every single funeral in his town for the past 20 years and has quit his job to be able to feed his addiction.

He told EPTV: "What set me off was my father's death in 1983. The first thing I do every morning is to turn on the radio to find out if anyone has died, if I don't hear it on the radio I call the hospitals and the local funeral home."

A spokesperson for local funeral home, S'o Vicente, said: "We dont want him to go to therapy, everyone expects to see him at the funerals."
