*Author's Note* I got this story over the
internet. I did not create this.

My mother swears this is true:
My great-great grandmother, ill for quite some
time, finally passed away after lying in a 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 doctor pronounced her dead, my great-
great grandfather insisted that she was not. 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 proper coffin and committed
the body (in its 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. His wife was buried and
that was that.
That night he woke 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 doctor
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 nails were
bent back as if trying to dig her way out of
something, and there were obvious scratches on the
inside of the coffin. Visitor Rating:
