A company which make coffins has launched a sexy calendar which stars a host of scantily-clad female models posing with their caskets.

Italian coffin firm Cofanifunebri say they hope the £9 calendar will help promote their range of wooden coffins and grab peoples attention.

And if these snaps are anything to go by they certainly will.

The Rome-based company held a photo-shoot in an old church complete with the gothic looking models in sexy (and often PVC) outfits, to display their wares.

While some would-be coffin customers said the models coffins were to die for… others could find the sexy photos cause them a heart attack before they can place an order.
