Here’s a creepy one for you. According to the
Hamilton Spectator, an Ontario family has spent the last six months willingly living with the corpse of their deceased father.
Kaling Wald is reported to have pled guilty on Monday to charges of keeping her dead husband in their house, on the off chance that he might rise again from the dead. His body was only discovered after the family were evicted for defaulting on their mortgage, at which point the Sheriff found the decomposed body, along with a number of co-habituating rodents, in the upstairs bedroom.
All this came about as a result of the deceased Peter Wald’s refusal to go to the hospital to treat an infection, insisting to his family that God would save him. When Peter finally succumbed to the infection, his family retained their faith that God would bring Peter back, so they did what any rational family would do, they locked the bedroom door and sealed up the air-vents.
Then they patiently waited for Peter to step back out of the door good as new.
Kaling had her sentence suspended by the court, as she had a good reputation in the community and no previous convictions, though she has been ordered to seek counseling for a what the Crown Attorney could only describe as an “extremely sad case”.
