DEAD WOMAN KNOCKS FROM INSIDE THE COFFIN

A funeral in Peru was dramatically interrupted after ‘knocking’ was heard from inside the coffin. The family of Rosa Isabel Cespedes Callaca had gathered in the city of Lambayeque to pay their final respects on April 26. She had been involved in a serious car crash that claimed the life of her brother-in-law and left her nephews with serious injuries. She had been pronounced ‘dead’ following the crash, and later loaded into a coffin ahead of her funeral. But when her relatives hoisted the coffin onto their shoulders, they began to hear strange sounds. They opened the lid to find a weak, but very much alive, Rosa looking up at them. The rushed her to a hospital where she was hooked up to a life-support machine, but her condition deteriorated and she tragically died just a few hours later …
* … probably.
* Rosa rises.
* “Aunt Rosa! You’re alive!” “If you call this living.”
* We don’t all get the chance to take our coffin for a test drive.
* Well, at least it sounds like the food for the funeral didn’t have a chance to go bad.
