Buried Alive - A Horrific Sight When Disinterred - Young Anna Hochwalt in 1884.

[@jehouse61]

Normally I love creepy stories, but for some reason this one juat made me very sad. Poor girl.

[@feferosette]

Yes very sad!

[@missys199]

I love creepy stories as well. But yea, I'm having a really really hard time with this one. Being buried alive or burning alive, is my absolute worst fears!! Okay then. So much for sleep tonight

[@mbell8581]

I agree

[@Lyssa72]

Being buried alive is the reason many places had “grave bells” and graveyard watchman. I just could not imagine this most horrific death💔

[@jameshickok2349]

I've seen pictures of ads for coffins with a bell mounted on the top lid, with a string running into the coffin. Problem is once the bell is in dirt it doesn't work very well unless there's a housing protecting it.

[@Lyssa72]

@@jameshickok2349 yeap, they did sell them like that. I’ve always wondered if they would work. Haha, funny story, my granddad worked at a funeral home for years and he told me that he and another guy went and picked up a body 80 miles away from where we lived. Coming back down the road during the trip, he glanced back just checking out the rear view mirror and about that time, the body sit straight up😂😂 He about run off the road and the guy with him was ready to run😆 All it was though was muscle spasms but still, I would have died right there.

[@lesliebblack]

@@Lyssa72 I had the same experience! 30 years ago, when I was a young nurse, I had a patient die on the night shift. If it had been daytime, various other people would have taken the body down to the morgue, but on night shifts, it’s minimal staff. So another nurse and I put the deceased on a special type of stretcher with a metal ‘tent’ which a sheet is draped over, to disguise what’s under it. We were told to take the patient to the morgue in the basement which is locked, but a security guard would meet us there. So we wheeled the stretcher down to the basement, & had to wait for the guard who got held up for some reason. As we were waiting it looked like the body tried to sit up, but couldn’t all the way due to the metal tent over the top, but it ‘sat up’ about 45 degree angle 📐 & I’ve never been so startled in my life!! I knew the patient was dead, as it was after a long deterioration from cancer, but man, I had nightmares for a while after that!!

When my older son was small he would ride on my bike with me through cemeteries on the north side of Chicago. My marriage was bad, I worked nights and wanted to spend time with him away from the house. Cemeteries have safe and beautiful roads. Reading headstones was part of the ride and I’d wonder if anyone of them once lived similar to me. Things are different now but I’ll always have an appreciation and fondness for cemeteries. No KZbin then of course. I really like this channel.

How long can you stay alive in a buried 👀 coffin ?

[@rickster382]

That's where "saved by the bell" came from. People were often buried alive and they would run a string from the coffin up to the surface to a bell hanging on a stick that way if you woke up in a coffin you can start pulling that string and ringing the bell someone would hear it and dig you up and you would be saved by the Bell. True story.

[@jeanettetekesky6387]

I was born and raised in Dayton. That cemetery is one of the most beautiful anywhere! Lots of history there.

[@whatanitemare]

What's really frightening is that live burials were so common that casket makers actually fitted them with alarm systems! For "a small fee" the casket was fitted with a pipe that was inserted into the coffin lid before the grave was back-filled. A string would have been tied to a finger of the deceased and then run up through the pipe to the surface. The other end was connected to a small brass bell on a spring.... (Think miniature version of the store "over the door bells" we've all seen in old movies) The idea was not only that the pipe would prevent suffocation but that the slightest move of the body would set the bell ringing and (hopefully) alert someone of the situation. My mom grew up in an old town in Germany. The accepted story there was that sometimes, when you visited the Victorian section of the cemetery, you would hear the ringing of a long gone bell.

[@lakeisharobinson2132]

Wow!

[@judithm375]

When I was a child in Scotland half a century ago someone told me scary things such as don't give your hand to someone dying as they'd break your arm trying to "take you with them", and that when you pass a cemetery you'll hear the shouts of "people buried alive". I'd run fast past our local graveyard for fear of hearing the shouts. It never occurred to me that I should listen for shouts and get help, including for people buried alive! But, after all, as that same person told me, tombstones exist to stop people climbing out of their graves!

[@whatanitemare]

@@judithm375 ROFL! I'd never heard that definition of a tombstone Before. When I was 12, I had my 5 year old brother convinced that it was dangerous for him to go outside on the night of a full moon. We lived in an area just at the city limits so no street lights but lots of overgrown yards and empty fields. One of those yards contained a old concrete horse trough which doubled as the entrance to the local witches underground lair. What she kept in her lair was juicy little children of course. On the night of the full moon, the witch came into her full power, which meant that she could use the moon to watch for children wandering in the dark. If you dared to run, the moon would chase you. (have you noticed that if you walk while keeping an eye on the moon, it appears to keep pace with you?) Needless to say, my little brother stopped trying to tag along with me once the sun went down!

I had turned all the Christmas lights off on Christmas evening so they've been off for a couple days.

So sorry Karen. 🙏🏻 I don't KNOW how you feel, cause your Dad was yours and your relationship with him was unique to the both of you but I do understand the pain of loss, as I too lost my Dad, very suddenly, he just collapsed and died in my arms without regaining consciousness. It was a blessing for him but a shock for us. What gives me comfort, is that years prior to my Dad passing, my uncle (who sadly died of cancer), just moments before he died, he opened his eyes, stared straight ahead at a blank wall and a huge smile spread across his face, as if he saw someone he knew really well and loved. He closed his eyes and gently and peacefully died. My aunt swears that my Uncle Ben's mother came to get him and it was her that he was smiling at. So it has compounded my belief in heaven. I'm sure your Dad is with those he loves, at peace and happy in heaven. God bless you 🤗

[@JediJan]

Claustrophobia can be very debilitating I know. If you have to have one insist you enter feet first and tell yourself your head is very close to the opening (which it should be). They have fans blowing air down there too so it doesn't feel so suffocating. Worst thing for me was being on a fully packed plane once (earlier flight was cancelled). When we landed everyone seemed to stand at the same time; no personal space at all. So I sat down again for that tiny bit of extra space. When I am in difficult situations I have my mind concentrate on going through procedures on how to escape confined situations. Even in lifts I plan how to reach the ceiling, undo bolts and open the maintenance door ... It helps to occupy your mind with practical things like that to avoid panicking. I have managed pretty well so far. I will be cremated. I take nerve pain medications for a back injury now and have found they have a sedative effect too. I even went caving with friends once while taking those tablets. Don't think I'd normally be able to do that without medication. Doing these things does help you to know you can manage though.

Oh my gosh… In that case they are actually killing people who could've ended up buried alive. Hence, only saving them from the terror. Not really saving them at all! Think about it. If they would bury someone alive without embalming them, then embalming them would be simply cutting up a person in a coma. That's horrid!!

Yes that is correct. Besides, everyone should look up the barbaric procedures prior to embalming. They literally puncture the organs so they dont seep or explode during the wake.

What a beautiful, scenic and well kept cemetery! To be buried alive is unthinkable. The terror Anna must have felt when she realized it. What confuses me though in these cases, is how can anyone even have enough air and strength after being buried alive to put up a struggle like that. You would think the oxygen alone in a buried coffin would be at the very minimum. Plus, a person recovering from a coma like state would still be rather weak still, especially after not eating or drinking all of that time. Those are the questions in my mind whenever I hear these kinds of stories. I still believe them, I just don't understand how the person in the coffin can come back strong enough to put up a fight. It's very sad though. RIP Anna.

About two hours after death, the cornea becomes hazy or cloudy and progressively becomes more opaque over the next 24 to 48 hours. This occurs due to the lack of circulation/oxygen. The build up of potassium in the vitreous humor (a transparent, colorless, gel-like substance in the eyeball) can also contribute to the clouding. This clouding can help determine a rough estimate when time of death may be in question.

This is very true. I saw my mom's cloudy eyes after she took her life by hanging. She texted me at 6:27am that morning "this is for the best I love you." Once I got there at about 8:46am she must have been gone at least 2 hours by then because her eyes were open and had the cloudiness in her eyes you described when people die. I also didn't realize when you die all of the facial muscles droop really bad. I guess not everyone dies with their eyes open and that must be why some people back in the day got accidentally buried alive. I'm not a doctor but once I saw the life gone from my mom's eyes ( the cloudiness) I knew she was gone. I layed her down gently, took a few steps back, sat down next to her car, called an ambulance, and I had to look away. It was a lot back in 2017 when she did that but I feel like I handled it well apart from a few panic attacks while sorting out her house. She sends me signs so I know she is around.

It’s too horrific to even imagine what that poor girl went through. Her parents must have been devastated. Thanks for sharing this story.

I'm from England, the way you told this story and the actual story itself was fascinating, the cemetery was beautiful x

Agreed Victoria. I just wrote a comment on how grand the graveyards are in america compared to Ireland, Im from Ireland. The UK has pretty much the same graveyards as Ireland.

The wedding went on? Wow. Not changing the subject, but it is a beautiful cemetery.

[@lynnlindsay4480]

I would have nixed that wedding and said let's wait. Plus I would not want my wedding anniversary to be on the same date as a death of a family member. How callous.

OMG! Why didn’t the doctor detect a heartbeat? Surely Anna had one because she was still alive! It’s really difficult to understand how this horrible misdiagnosis could even happen. Poor woman... RIP ANNA. Yeah, this has to be the absolutely worse way to go...alone in a dark confined space. 😰

@@louisefontaine6856 Their stethoscopes were hollow brass tubes and they pressed one end against the chest and put their ear to the other end and listened. They were very unreliable. When people have been declared dead but they are actually alive, it's called CATALEPSY. Their pulse, breathing and heart activity are so feint, they are extremely hard to detect. Even with modern technology. In Anna's case, without reliable medical equipment it would have been virtually impossible for them to detect life and sadly, they then declared death. Many people have suffered from Catalepsy and even last year, a woman in a southern US state, came round in the morgue of a funeral parlour!! She was rushed back to hospital and last I heard she was in ICU, I'm not sure if she survived. It's just heartbreaking that poor Anna didn't come round before she was buried. It's the stuff of nightmares and one that we are all terrified of.

[@louisefontaine6856]

@@jaylyn7285 hey thanks Jaylyn for your very informative reply. It helps me and I’m sure many others to better understand how these horrible events could happen. If the heartbeat is very faint then it probably also cools the body almost to being death cold...

Hi Ron! Great narration and another awesome video to include music! Take care and be safe.

Were you a history teacher? Because you make it come alive in your videos! I learn so much about the history of our country, just by watching you visiting the cemeteries!🙏🏼💚

The best option is to avoid premature burial is cremation..which suggested by Sanatan dharma.even christians can choose this option where their ashes will be buried and it is environment friendly too.

Rest in peace Anna. My tears are with you Fellow Traveler.

[@paulrickson9796]

This is probably my favorite cemetery of all that you have visited, Ron. The trees, rolling hills, bright and clear sunlight filtering through the trees, the glowing grass in the sunshine.......really gorgeous. Little Anna is MORE THAN OK. A horrific way to leave this earth. And can you imagine the anguish and guilt the parents and "medical types" must have felt knowing they had buried this girl alive?? But, I don't believe she remembers any of it where she is now. This world is a place of beauty and horror. Anna's story and the breathtaking beauty of her resting place illustrate that SO well. We remain and see both horror and beauty. All that Anna sees is Eternal Beauty, Life and Glory. "Death be not proud! For though some have called you mighty, thou art not so!"

My grandmother had 4 children that died before the age of 3. My mother said their deaths were from "summer complaint", (diarrhea, vomiting) This was in the 1930's. My grandparents lived in rural Lancaster Ohio at the time. My grandfather wrapped the babies up and buried them in the yard.

[@maryanncasciani3866]

I can’t imagine the grief of loosing so many children.

[@Mel-zl4hs]

WHAT IF THE CHILDREN WERE NOT DEAD ???? Omg

[@jamesvickers9476]

sounds suspicious to me...

[@lisastreasures]

@@jamesvickers9476 my mother had told me when their mother had to travel with the oldest daughter for modeling the other children would have to stay home with the babies. I was told they had given the baby spoiled milk and that's what caused the diarrhea/vomiting. It was the 1930's and during the depression. The family was already poor especially with so many children.

[@raefarnsworth4278]

That was common. Alot of places have restrictions but, you can still bury people on private property.

[@debbiebutler3310]
