I remember seeing this type of cultural practise in this film here: The Others That movie is very entertainting by the way! But only if you like those types of gloomy-atmosphere, nothing really-happens-but-it-still-scares-the shit-out-of-you-films...

The pictures were taken to preserve the dead persons' souls. Anyway, these photographs look intrinsically bizarre, don't you think? I hope noone will ever take one of me!
