NEDERLAND, Colo.—Nederland's Frozen Dead Guy Days celebration is continuing under a new owner.
Amanda MacDonald tells the Boulder Daily Camera she bought the rights because she wants it to stay in Nederland.
Bredo Morstoel's corpse has been packed in dry ice in a shed at the mountain town since 1993. He died in 1989 at age 89 and his Norwegian family preserved his body in hopes technology will be developed to bring him back to life.
The 10-year-old festival attracted 15,000 people in March. It features a parade of hearses, frozen salmon tossing and coffin races.
