My great great grandmother,ill for quite some time,finally passed away after lying in coma for several days.My great great grandfather was devastated beyond belief,as she was his one true love and they had been married over 50 years.They were married so long it seemed as if they knew each other's innermost thoughts.
After the doctors pronounced her dead,my great great grandfather insisted that she was not dead.They had to literally pry him away from his wife's body so they could ready her for burial.
Now back in those days they had backyard burial plots and did not drain the body of its fluids.They simply prepared a coffin and committed the body in the coffin,to its permanent resting place.Throughout this process,my great great grandfather protested so fiercely that he had to be sedated and put to bed and then his wife was buried.
That night he woke up to a horrific vision of his wife hysterically trying to scratch her way out of the coffin.He phoned the doctor immediately and begged to have his wife's body exhumed.The docttor refused,but my great great grandfather had this nightmare every night for a week,each time frantically begging to have his wife removed from the grave.
Finally the doctor gave in and,together with local authorities,exhumed the body.The coffin was pried open and to everyone's horror and amazement,my great great grandmother's nail were bent back and there were bloody scratch mark on the insides of the coffin.
