A heart broken mother had this grave designed for her deceased 10-year-old daughter in 1871. While she was alive, the daughter was terrified of storms. The grave was constructed with an entrance that descends to the level of the coffin. Her mother would come and enter the tomb during storms to comfort her child.
This grave design from the Victorian era was meant to prevent the dead from escaping the grave. You know, just in case they were zombies or vampires.
This is the last remaining grave from an old cemetery in rural Indiana. Most of the graveyard was moved to make way for the state highway. The grandson of the woman buried there refused to have his grandmother moved. The county eventually gave in and built the road around the grave.

They don't let people have headstones like that anymore where I live. The gardeners are too damn lazy to work around them.

I've always wondered what happened to the scrabble guy to die so young. People obviously cared a lot about him

That girl must have REALLY hated storms for the mother to pay for a grave like that

That Victorian era gravesite was designed to prevent grave robbing, not the undead.
