Oddly Enough has presented some pretty creepy, spooky stories over the years. There were the Zimbabwean hitch-hikers who were driven to a cemetery and forced to dig up a coffin at gunpoint, and then left there, stranded.  There was the terrified Norwegian woman who shared her car with a live rat for two weeks until she killed it using liver pate as bait.

And maybe the all-time champion – a torrential rain washed out part of a cemetery in Brazil, sending bones, coffins and crosses crashing through the kitchen wall of a neighboring home.

Now, from Kazakhstan, comes a worthy competitor: it seems burglars nailed a funeral parlor employee in a coffin and kept him there unconscious while rummaging for cash in the shop. Imagine his surprise when he awoke. Read the story, if you dare:
