A Man Has A Phobia: That Of Being Buried Alive

Buried Alive

by Mario PIERRE
















Martin was terrified after reading the true account of Timothy Clark Smith, who, suffering

from taphephobia, (the fear of being buried alive), installed a window on his grave. Martin

thought this was a bad idea because the chance of someone noticing was quite minimal. So,

after careful consideration, he requested that fireworks and a matchbox be placed in his coffin 

in the event that he would wake up. As it turned out, he was pronounced dead one day and

buried.

Martin woke up in his tomb and immediately executed his plan.

He didn't realise it was the fourth of July.
