Interesting story. Will see if I can find out more about it.
CHIHUAHUA, Mexico (Reuters) - Peering through the glass at a mannequin's veined hands, sparkling eyes and eerie smile, the small crowd gathered outside a store in northern Mexico tries to settle a macabre riddle beguiling many.
Is the tall, slender bridal figure in the window a richly detailed shop's dummy or, as a local legend says, the decades-old embalmed corpse of the former store owner's daughter?......
Riddle of "corpse bride" draws crowds
A mannequin wearing a bridal gown is displayed at a shop in the city of Chihuahua on November 25, 2005. The haunting figure known as 'La Pascualita,' or 'Little Pascuala' first appeared 75 years ago in the window of the bridal gown store
Didn't anybody just find this a little bit bizarre? Or, have we all become too jaded by high tech gadgets and Stars Wars-like movies?
Maybe if she died, the result of mayhem.
I'd like to see "Cold Case" handle this one. :wink:
