I guess there's a few people that are scared of this. Always thought this was one of those myths things.....
--------------------------------------
A cemetery worker got the fright of his life when he heard a woman screaming from inside her buried coffin.
The man told police he could hear muffled shouts and banging coming from the plot of a 49-year-old woman who had been pronounced dead and buried that day.
Workers and cemetery visitors frantically dug up the coffin and smashed it open, however they were too late and the woman had died.
Police visited the Peraia cemetery near Thessaloniki in Greece, however a doctor who examined her body at the scene claimed she had been dead for hours and could not have possibly been buried alive due to her advanced state of rigor mortis.
The doctor, Chrissi Matsikoudi told Greek television channel MEGA: ‘We did several tests including one for heart failure on the body.’
A coroner will be carrying out a separate examination on the body.
Police say the woman, a mother of two who suffered from cancer, cannot be named until the post mortem is carried out.
Relatives of the woman say they are considering filing a complaint against the doctors who first pronounced her dead.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum |
Coffins used to be built with holes in them, attached to six feet of copper tubing and a bell. The tubing would allow air for victims buried under the mistaken impression they were dead. In a certain small town Harold, the local gravedigger, upon hearing a bell one night, went to go see if it was children pretending to be spirits. Sometimes it was also the wind. This time, it wasn’t either. A voice from below begged and pleaded to be unburied.
“Are you Sarah O’Bannon?” Harold asked.
“Yes!” The muffled voice asserted.
“You were born on September 17, 1827?”
“Yes!”
“The gravestone here says you died on February 20, 1857.”
“No, I’m alive, it was a mistake! Dig me up, set me free!”
“Sorry about this, ma’am,” Harold said, stepping on the bell to silence it and plugging up the copper tube with dirt. “But this is August. Whatever you are down there, you sure as hell ain’t alive no more, and you ain’t comin’ up.”

Well if you don't get an I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here challenge, where they're frequently put into a similar box, at least you may have a moment of fame, though guess they don't add the creepies in to the coffin. Can always get buried at home, I guess, and task your family with ensuring you don't need releasing - though some may prefer you stay put. |
