Nederland (pop. 1,394) celebrates Frozen Dead Guy Days annually in March. The event commemorates Bredo Morstoel, who died in 1989 and was frozen by his grandson, Trygve Bauge, who hopes to one day bring his grandfather back to life. Today, Morstoel's body is packed in dry ice in a metal shed in Nederland.
