Waiting mortuary

So, I was watching Lore today, and I'm not sure if either of these things mesh with Cogg- But they're interesting, nonetheless.
Death wasn't a science way back when, so the fear of waking up in a coffin six feet below the ground- was a terrifying thought for both the not-so-deceased and their loved ones. So there were, at one point, 'waiting mortuaries' filled with flowers to try and disguise the scent of the area- where corpses would be left until putrefaction set in, incase they weren't quite dead yet.
Another bit of lore - The spirit at one point was referred to be the 'enemis' (although, I can't find the spelling or a reference for it for the life of me. So if someone else spots it, let me know.)
Anyway, not sure if it meshes, but- idea.
