In 2018, in Brazil, a woman is believed to have been buried alive after supposedly dying of ‘septic shock and two heart attacks.’ The story, reported by LADBible, explains that in January 2018, a family believed that their loved one was wrongly declared dead and was therefore buried alive. The family also claims that the woman spent days struggling to get out of her coffin.

‘11 days’ inside her coffin

This story is about a Brazilian woman named Rosangela Almeida who was 37 at the time. According LADBible, the family believes that she remained alive for ‘11 days’ after the funeral and that, in that time, she tried to escape her coffin.

These disturbing claims are made after some signs of life were heard near her grave. Indeed, the online publication reports that:

visitors to the cemetery reportedly heard banging and groaning from inside the stone tomb.

After hearing those claims, it is believed that the family rushed to the cemetery where they proceeded to exhume the grave.

A chilling discovery

According to the family, once they had reached the coffin and opened it they made a horrifying discovery.

LADBible writes:

there was evidence of injury to her wrists and forehead.

Not only that the family said that they noticed:

blood inside the coffin, and the nails on the lid of the coffin appear to have come loose

Upon noticing those bloodcurdling details, the family alleges that these marks of struggle weren’t present when Almeida was buried. Not only that, it is reported that people who saw the body as it was being removed from the coffin claim that the woman’s body was still warm, therefore believing that she had died not long before.

The police concluded that she wasn’t buried alive

However, even though the family and onlookers claim to have heard Almeida groan and bang on the coffin, the police have not found any proof of those claims.

Furthermore, exhuming a body without authorisation is a crime in Brazil leaving the family open ‘to being charged with disturbing a grave.’
