October 29, 2011 The Wet Mummy
Not your average Halloween mummy, but a real live Ming Dynasty mummy!
Quote:
She was a young woman, and very modern with purple hair, probably from something in the water. She was buried with her exorcism coin, but it didn't keep water from leaking into her coffin. Instead of rotting her body, though, the water actually preserved her, turning her into a wet mummy. A wet mummy is made when the water lacks oxygen, preventing bacteria from breaking down the body.
