📍 Accra • by Znews • Jun 07, 2026
An undertaker widely known as Nana Yaw, popularly referred to as “More Cash,” has sparked widespread discussion after sharing what he called a terrifying encounter while preparing a deceased woman’s body for burial. He highlighted that morticians frequently face unsettling and emotionally taxing situations in their line of work.
In a recent interview, Nana Yaw recounted an incident during one of his preparation duties in which the body of the deceased woman appeared to move or react as he was dressing her. The experience reportedly left him deeply frightened and reinforced his belief that the public has little understanding of the intense challenges undertakers endure.
He shared the story to underscore how mentally exhausting the profession can be, often exposing workers to situations that place significant emotional strain on them. According to him, many people fail to appreciate the psychological burden involved in regularly handling corpses and supporting bereaved families.
Medical professionals, however, typically attribute such reported incidents to natural post-mortem changes in the body. These can include rigor mortis, shifts during decomposition, or involuntary muscle movements triggered by pressure, temperature, or other environmental factors—explanations that contrast with supernatural or sensational interpretations.
Nevertheless, undertakers like Nana Yaw maintain that their daily realities involve deeply disturbing moments that are difficult to convey to outsiders. They argue that these experiences add to the heavy emotional weight of the job.
The undertaker’s remarks have triggered varied responses on social media, with some users reacting with surprise and others expressing doubt while advocating for a more evidence-based understanding of bodily changes after death.
Funeral industry experts, meanwhile, stress the essential service undertakers provide. They play a critical role in treating the deceased with dignity and compassion while helping families navigate one of life’s most difficult periods.
