A reclusive British man lived out a weird “Weekend at Bernie’s” experience, shacking up with his dead 94-year-old dad for four months, officials said.
No one knew about the body until a neighbor peeked inside to see Timothy Brown, 59, watching TV — next to a skeleton, the Daily Mirror reported.
“As I looked at the chair I wasn’t sure what I was looking at. I could see a skull, I was very shocked,” a neighbor said in a statement to investigators.
The senior Brown died after taking a bad fall in his bedroom, according to his son, who proceeded to prop up his pop in his favorite living room chair — and then went on with life as normal in their Stafford bungalow.
The morbid case actually dates back to October 2014, but details only came out recently in a coroner’s inquest.
Brown, his dad’s only caretaker for the past decade, was arrested for concealing a body and preventing burial, but prosecutors eventually declined to prosecute.
