Resurrection Mary

In a 1977 incident, a passerby saw a woman locked inside the fence
of the cemetery after dark. Rather than stopping, he called the
police, who came to let her out. When the police arrived, she was
nowhere to be seen - but they discovered that two bars of the main
gate had been bent outwards, and the bars bore the imprint of human
hands. Officials quickly removed the bars - but, embarrassed, later
re-installed them, using a blowtorch to obscure the handprints. The
two burned areas can still be seen. |
