Photos of the terrifying corpse were shared by Peru's Directorate of Culture showing a skeleton, lying in a red bag with a reflective inner lining, commonly used by food delivery companies.
In an interview, Julio Cesar, who is believed to owe the body, said that he had been taking care of the body for multiple years adding that "It sleeps in my bedroom, with me. There’s my bed, the TV set and next to it, there’s Juanita."
He maintained that he treats it as his "spiritual girlfriend."
