An old man and woman were married for years even though 
they hated each other. When they had a confrontation, 
screams and yelling could be heard deep into the night. A 
constant statement was heard by the neighbors who feared the 
man the most. "When I die I will dig my way up and out of the 
grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"

They believed he practiced black magic and was responsible 
for missing cats and dogs, and strange sounds at all hours. He 
was feared and enjoyed the respect it garnished.

He died abruptly under strange circumstances and the funeral 
had a closed casket. After the burial, the wife went straight to 
the local bar and began to party as if there was no tomorrow. 

The gaiety of her actions were becoming extreme while her 
neighbors approached in a group to ask these questions: Are 
you not afraid? Concerned? Worried? that this man who 
practiced black magic and stated when he died he would dig 
his way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for 
the rest of your life?

The wife put down her drink and said..."let the old bastard dig. 
I had him buried upside down."
