The blood does not freeze unless the whole body is frozen. Strangely enough, it doesn't coagulate quickly either because of breakdown enzymes from muscle and other deteriorating tissues. With many variables, a dead body will develop "lividity" in 10 to 12 hours which is a visible area of coloring caused by a pooling of the blood fluids to the lowest are of the body—this can be changed if the body were to be moved around this time, but you would have two areas of lividity. I hope you are researching a murder mystery.

To freeze? Are you stuffing bodies in a freezer now? In a normal situation where the body is dead and left at room temperature, the blood will stop moving through the body when the heart stops pumping it.

Blood doesn't freeze unless it's with other things that freeze. The reason the body stops bleeding is that the heart has stopped pumping the blood through the vessels.

It depends on where the body is and if it never goes below 32 then it won't freeze but it will unfreeze as the temp goes higher

The blood does not freeze. Not sure where you heard that it does.

Where did you get that idea? Embalmers remove the blood after death and it is in a liquid stage.

That depends on the surrounding temperature.
