Some wills were touching, like one where a man asked his family to visit the zoo after his burial. Others, however, were revengeful, like the parents who left their children only their hated cats as inheritance.A wealthy uncle left everything to an Elvis impersonator, and a man’s son, suspected of causing his parents’ deaths, inherited the family estate while in a mental hospital. One final prank came from a man who left his outhouse contents to the city council after years of fighting them for his land. Lastly, a woman,
believed to be poor, hid her fortune, but only if her husband met specific conditions. He had to live in her trailer for a year, maintain it without upgrades, volunteer at an animal shelter, and write an essay on humility.These strange wills reflect how even in death, people can leave surprising, unforgettable marks on their families.
