A woman declared dead by the coroner after her husband found her unresponsive in bed was being placed in a coffin when morticians made a startling discovery — she was very much alive.
The horrifying tale from the Czech Republic unfolded when an 88-year-old woman, who was thought to be dead, showed signs of life in her coffin.
The coroner also confirmed the woman’s death and undertakers were called to move the body into the coffin.
The husband also told Blesk that "the workers transferred her to the coffin, and when they were right here in the apartment in the hallway by the door, they found out she was alive."
An ambulance arrived shortly after, and the woman was transported to the hospital.
While this may seem like something out of a horror story, this rare medical occurrence has happened before.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, it's known as the Lazarus Effect.
I guess they don't transport allegedly declared dead bodies off to a coroner or for autopsy? They just pop them straight into a coffin? What a scary set of circumstances!

It's a really scary thought.
I remember in grade school, we were taught about these types of things happening, and when graves were drug up (for whatever reason), they would sometimes see claw marks on the inside of the coffin.
I have a feeling it happens in Haiti and certain places that practice unique religions, such as Voodoo or Vodo or Vodun, places that might utilize paralytic powders that simulate death in the individual.

The claw marks were stomach acid from unembalmed bodies where the gasses build up and the stomach exploded. The splashes of acid wear deep grooves in the wood.

Tetrodotoxin is the compound which produces such an effect in those circumstances Lilith
It's most commonly found in the livers of pufferfish (Although other aquatic species have it) which are plentiful around the Caribbean but are much more scare along the West African coast. East Africa has plenty of them though, which leads to interesting thoughts as to how such specific medical information passed among witchdoctors but kept exclusive from Europeans.
Harvesting the compound and then keeping it in usable powdered form is a complex and dangerous process. Something that would have attracted attention from those observing the actions of those capable of doing so.
Seems like there has always been an Illuminati or Slash dot of sorts keeping things interesting for those who only occasionally notice things which are different.
I don't think we'll ever get a proper understanding of oral traditions from before written documentation of events but there seemed to be plenty of information making its way across oceans and centuries which has been vital to our harnessing the power of nature
As for the poor woman in the OP. I think that would be an awful way to spend your last moments. I'm glad she got out and can have a few more better ones before her time comes.

Yep. I knew it was from the pufferfish. Using this powder has been around for ages.
I think they used this in Lord of Illusions. Might be another movie, can't recall, but it was also brought to cinema decades ago.

You pretended to be jacky on IMDb1 and made a post about her toe socks making her feet hot and smelly!

"Exquisite Agony"! Yikes! What a way to describe this experience.
I haven't seen this movie yet. Those woods look very familiar. They remind me of the same woods that the "wolf-man" ran through (near the gypsy camp). Ray Milland is always worth a watch. EAP is a master storyteller, so I'll bet this is good adaptation. Have you watched it?
What a horrible way to go.

There were some places that would bury their dead with a string attached to their hand that led out of the coffin, out of the ground and to a bell so that if someone were buried and "woke up", they could ring the bell and be dug up. Long history of using bells for "dead" bodies.

True.
In some places there were actually people assigned to the graveyard at night to listen for the bells. Thus the origin of the phrase
"the graveyard shift."
