The Last Service

In the hushed embalming-prep room of a small-town funeral home, Luna opens the leather-bound register and reads the names of the dead who came before. 'The Last Service' is an anthology series of self-contained stories, each beginning with a name entered into that old book—a life, a death, and the secret that lingers between them. Here, the deceased do not always rest. A widow insists her husband's corpse smiled at her. A mortician finds a note scrawled inside a sealed casket. A child's funeral draws mourners who never knew her, all wearing the same puzzled expression. Luna's voice, low and intimate as candlelight, guides listeners through these quiet, dread-soaked tales of grief, guilt, and the debts we carry past the grave. The setting never changes—the same gurneys, the same vintage clock fixed at 3:14, the same closed double-doors—but every episode opens onto a different darkness. Whether a ghost story, a psychological horror, or a slow-burn revelation of small-town rot, each tale is bound by the finality of that single entry in the register. The only certainty: the last service is never truly the end.
