LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN/Gray News) – A woman who was pronounced dead came back to life at a funeral home in Nebraska, officials said.

The Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident that happened at Butherus-Maser & Love Funeral Home in Lincoln on Monday morning.

Officials said the 74-year-old woman was pronounced dead around 9:45 a.m. by staff members at the Mulberry nursing home in Waverly.

The woman had been in hospice, and nursing staff were expecting her to pass away, according to Chief Deputy Ben Houchin.

Funeral home staff transported the woman’s body to their facility.

While preparing her body for funeral arrangements, an employee noticed the woman still breathing and called 911.


Full Story



Hard to believe that the facility's nursing staff, and hospice nurse, all missed this. And the paramedics / coroner when transporting the body to the funeral home.

Not that uncommon. Big reason they embalm now.

Several older graves have been dug up over the years and was obvious finger bones were grinded down and scrapes on the caskets from people accidentally buried alive and trying to get out.

Big reason why I want to be cremated.

This was just above the fail gif thread when I clicked and got me to thinking this would make for a scary-as-shite fail gif.

This happened a lot during Covid when the doctors were getting paid to call everything a Covid death

Her breathing had to have been really shallow for them to declare her. How else do you miss signs of life?

That’s a terrifying way to go. I always liked the idea of the little pull rope and bell at the grave for this purpose

Yeh, cause being burned alive in a giant oven seems much preferable to suffocating.

Do you really think you’d survive embalming?

So you would rather burn alive than suffocate?

Doubt a coroner saw her and it doesn't say that an ambulance transported her. Just nurses gonna nurse.
