Hmm....i couldnt find anythin, it said that i was spellin it wrong....but...

PREMATURE BURIAL
To die is natural; but the living death
Of those who waken into consciousness,
Though for a moment only, ay, or less,
To find a coffin stifling their last breath,
Surpasses every horror underneath
The sun of Heaven, and should surely check
Haste in the living to remove the wreck
Of what was just before, the soul's fair sheath,
How many have been smothered in their shroud!
How many have sustained this awful woe!
Humanity would shudder could we know
How many have cried to God in anguish loud,
Accusing those whose haste a wrong had wrought
Beyond the worst that ever devil thought.


This has freaked me out fer a long time...live buarial, its not unheard of. this has some basis in fact, like all legends, but is a slight chance...

A long time ago they believed people in coma's were dead. Some of these people would wake up buried alive, and would die.

On occasion, they would break through the coffin and the dirt and die near the top of the soil or even survive and get out. Their face would be covered in blood, blood trickling out of their mouths.

People would see them, think they were vampires back from the dead, and kill them.

Heres another one to float ur boat, thought this is not true!!!! i thought it was cool, and it has variations...

A young couple living in a large isolated house had gone out to a dinner party one evening and left the baby-sitter in charge of their two children. The children had been put to bed and the baby-sitter was watching the television when the phone rang. She answered but all she heard was a man laughing hysterically and then a voice saying, "I'm upstairs with the children, you'd better come up." Thinking it was "one of those phone calls" or a practical joke she slammed down the receiver and turned the television sound up. A short time later the phone rang again and, as she picked it up, the unmistakable hysterical laughter came down the line and the voice once again said "I'm upstairs with the children, you'd better come up."
Getting rather frightened she called the operator and was advised they would notify the police and, should he phone again, could she keep him talking in order to give them time to trace the call and have him arrested. Minutes after she replaced the receiver the phone rang again and, when the voice said, "I'm upstairs with the children, you'd better come up," she tried to keep him talking. However, he must have guessed what she was trying to do and he put the phone down.

Only seconds later the phone rang again, this time it was the operator who said, "Get out of the house straight away, the man is on the extension." The baby-sitter put down the phone and just then heard someone coming down the stairs. She fled from the house and ran straight into the arms of the police. They burst into the house and found a man brandishing a large butcher's knife. He had entered the house through an upstairs window, murdered both the children and was just about to do the same to the poor baby-sitter.


Variations...

In some versions the mysterious caller just laughs maniacally instead of making threatening statements.

The number of murdered children (one, two, or three) varies.

Sometimes the girl sees the killer first, then runs from the house and summons the police herself.

In an alternate humorous version (in which the babysitter runs out of the house without first seeing the murderer) the police arrive to find that one of the children upstairs has been making the threatening calls as a prank.

Another variation (combined with elements from The Roommate's Death) involves two babysitters. After the first girl learns from the operator that the calls are originating from the upstairs extension, she runs to the stairway to summon her friend. As she approaches the stairway she hears a thumping sound coming from the stairs -- the sound of the friend, her limbs severed, dragging herself down the stairway. (In some versions the mutilated friend warns the first babysitter that the children have all been murdered and urges her to flee the house.)

I believe it was the song Love Rollercoaster.

The legend was that there was the girl on the cover of the album with a fabreglass bowl and I think it was honey in it, and she was pouring it on herself. The honey reacted with the fibreglass and it clung to her body and didn't get off. It ripped her skin off.
Left mutilated, the girl came into the music studio during the recording and yelled at the producer saying she'd sue him for all he was worth, so he killed her. That's what the screaming is in the background of the recording.

I don't believe that, it's just a myth blaugh
