Short Horror Stories

Coma

As disease struck the town, poor Elizabeth was bedridden. It was October 1st, she had been sick for weeks, and it only continued to get worse. Her husband checked up on her very often, hoping she would get better, but days after, she slipped into a coma. Elizabeth was pronounced dead on October 5th. Jack, her husband of ten years, buried her the next day, devastated from his loss. Weeks passed as others also slipped into comas, and eventually woke back up. It was then that Jack realized he buried his wife not long after her slipping into a coma. Demanding for her to be brought back up, his request was granted. Opening the coffin, he saw blood everywhere, along with scratch marks. Elizabeth had been buried alive.
