They say love never dies, but what you are about to read is taking it a little too far.
A Vietnamese man was found to be sleeping next to his wife’s corpse since she died in 2003. Because he couldn’t go to sleep at night without hugging his beloved spouse, he slept on top of her grave for about 20 months. When he couldn’t stand the rain and wind anymore, he decided to dig a tunnel into the grave, so he could be close to her.
When his kids heard about this, they did everything they could to stop him, so Le Van did the unquestionable. In 2004 he unearthed her remains, wrapped them in pieces of paper and a clay mould and put a dummy mask on her face. The man has been sleeping next to his dead wife ever since.
Nothing has been reported about the case since the news broke out in 2009. If anyone has any information, please let us know.
However, he’s not the only one. Police in Brussels made a shocking discovery in 2013 in the apartment of a 69-year-old Brussels woman: the mummified remains of her husband’s corpse, snug in a wool sweater and sinking into the scarlet stains of his own postmortem fluids. He was lying on the left side of their shared bed, his wife too distraught and in agony to change the sheets. The 79-year-old man, known only as Marcel H., is believed to have died from an asthma attack.
Do you think it’s weird to sleep or live with a dead spouse?
The weirdness does not stop there….In Georgia, a man named Joni Bakaradze, died in the early 1990s, at the age of 22. Instead of burying him in a cemetery, his family decided to keep his body preserved so that his son, who was just two at the time of his death, could see his father’s face. Joni’s mother, Tsiuri Kvaratskhelia, used embalming fluid to preserve Joni’s body, but after having a dream in which someone told her to use vodka instead, the woman from Bashi village, Georgia, switched to spirit liquid poultices.
