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.
