Mortician

I have a few ideas for this character. The walking doll is the mental substitute with what resides in the coffin. It's cursed to walk the earth and slowly remember the atrocities the person had committed. When the walking doll remembers the dead person's memories in it's entirety, it can choose to die or live with the memories and cast off the weight of the dead. 

What are your thoughts? I'd like to hear them.
