The Bridesicle
Wish I’d invented the concept, but no, the Bridesicle comes from the weird and wonderful mind of Will McIntosh in his book “Love Minus Eighty”.
In McIntosh’s world, women who die young and beautiful are cryogenically frozen, and only unfrozen when a rich enough man comes along who’s interested in paying for the cure to whatever killed her. Lots of other cool, weird, worrisome and just absurd enough to be true elements in the book, but the Bridesicle stands out as the fuzz that makes the book peachy.
