charnel house

1. a building where human remains are kept
2. any site of death, destruction or particularly unsettling awfulness. Sometimes used with "of" to specify the type of awfulness.
With the soil too rocky for decent graves, a charnel house was built to contain the dead.

I've seen some brilliant productions at Crash Dive Theater, but their new artistic director has made the place a charnel house of sticky-sweet scripts, nauseating set designs, and acting performances so devoid of life that the entire audience goes home traumatized.

charnika

Quite possibly the cutest, sweetest, and most attractive girl you'll ever meet. Not only is she pretty and hot, but she has great intellectual insight and is all around a perfect person. No matter what she does, you could never get mad at her. When you see her pictures, her smile, her eyes, you feel not only turned on, but content. Content because you know that she is everything you could ask for. A simple girl who is the life of the party.
Charnika I love you ,
