Congratulations on the new house! It's always exciting to take that leap into homeownership, even if the mortgage numbers can be a bit daunting at first. Having your own dedicated craft/writing room sounds like a dream come true!
As for the chilling tale of Little Mary, it's a reminder of the eerie blend of history and urban legend that can send shivers down your spine. The story raises questions about the thin line between fact and fiction, leaving us to wonder about the truth behind the haunting legend.
I think I've heard of a similar story that took place in New England. But instead of the mother, it was a sister who had a nightmare soon after the woman was buried.
The detail in Mary's story that stood out to me is that the family traveled with the body. Surely, they would have noticed that Mary wasn't decaying. In fact, people used to wait until the body started to show signs of decay before burying, just to be safe.
House purchase is terrifying but rewarding. Congratulations you now have a whole new set of things to worry about at 3am! Still worth it though I think. There are lots of urban myth versions of this story in the UK too. Pretty scary 😱
What a creepy legend! It reminds me of a terrifying bit of short fiction I read recently about a plague that caused those infected to drop into a week long coma, medically indistinguishable from death, then rise without any negative effects.
By the time this symptom was properly identified, thousands had been buried in mass graves
Thank you!
That idea to prevent living burials--it sure rings a bell.
Hmm, I can only wonder why. LOL

Blending history with legend makes for some spooky tales.

Yeah, that detail feels like a red flag. Even though that half looks like it was fabricated, the idea still makes me squeamish.

Don't worry. I'll still worry about the same things at 3am. Now, I have more! 😅😂

I'm not sure I could finish reading that story. My imagination would go hog wild overreacting to it.
Congratulations on the house!
So many tales of people being buried alive. Horrible way to die.
Thanks.
Yeah. The fact it happens just scares the crap out of me.
Congratulations on your new house!!! :)
Thanks!
Congrats! That's very exciting news.
Thanks! February has been a long month of waiting.
I feel awful for any parent who has to bury a child. My guess is her poor mom was haunted by nightmares.
I would be too!
