Death classes, taught by a combination of spiritual leaders, medical professionals, and retired actors, encouraged people to make peace with their eventual demise by facing it head-on. Exercises included practical planning with legal advice, but spent more time on often outrageous playacting of possible final moments to help adjust to the idea of dying. In addition to the elderly and terminally ill, the classes always saw a few misfit attendees, frequently alarmingly young, who often turned out to be psychopomps in the making.
