“Dead” Man Wakes Up on the Way to the Morgue

Published

on

Universally, it’s one of our worst fears–waking up from the dead only to come to the horrific realization that our body has already been properly…handled, so to speak.  Be it waking up inside a cold morgue, or worse, the hopeless darkness inside a casket underground, being pronounced dead when we have not yet shuffled loose the mortal coil is something straight out of our nightmares.

Such was almost the case for a Milwaukee man on May 19th.  As reported by WITI and WISN, the 46-year-old man was found unresponsive in his highrise apartment after his girlfriend contacted police when she had been unable to reach him.  He was “cold to the touch and in rigor,” according to the medical examiner’s report.  Resuscitation was not attempted.  The man was pronounced dead, and as a transport crew was preparing to take the man to the morgue an hour later, the man started breathing and moving his right arm and leg.  The crew promptly called 911, and the man was rushed to an area hospital, where he is recovering.

So how could this have happened? Apparently, the man has a medical condition that put him into a rare coma, which dropped his body temperature and stiffened his neck and jaw, which likely accounts for thinking that rigor had set in.  An investigation is underway to determine what went so terribly wrong; fortunately, it did not go as wrong as it could have.  Still…sleep tight.

Travis Kelce Joins Cast on Ryan Murphy’s ‘Grotesquerie’

Published

Football star Travis Kelce is going Hollywood. At least that is what Dahmer Emmy award-winning star Niecy Nash-Betts announced on her Instagram page yesterday. She posted a video of herself on set of the new Ryan Murphy FX series Grotesquerie.

“This is what happens when WINNERS link up‼️ @killatrav Welcome to Grostequerie[sic]!” she wrote.

Standing just out of frame is Kelce who suddenly steps in to say, “Jumping into new territory with Niecy!” Nash-Betts appears to be in a hospital gown while Kelce is dressed as an orderly.

Not much is known about Grotesquerie, other than in literary terms it means a work filled with both science fiction and extreme horror elements. Think H.P. Lovecraft.

Back in February Murphy released an audio teaser for Grotesquerie on social media. In it, Nash-Betts says in part, “I don’t know when it started, I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s different now. There’s been a shift, like something’s opening up in the world — a kind of hole that descends into a nothingness…”

There hasn’t been an official synopsis released regarding Grotesquerie, but keep checking back to iHorror for further details.

Deadline is reporting that a new 47 Meters Down installment is heading into production, making the shark series a trilogy. 

“Series creator Johannes Roberts, and screenwriter Ernest Riera, who wrote the first two films, have co-written the third installment: 47 Meters Down: The Wreck.” Patrick Lussier (My Bloody Valentine) will direct.

The first two films were a moderate success, released in 2017 and 2019 respectively. The second film is titled 47 Meters Down: Uncaged

47 Meters Down

The plot for The Wreck is detailed by Deadline. They write that it involves a father and daughter trying to repair their relationship by spending time together scuba diving into a sunken ship, “But soon after their descent, their master diver has an accident leaving them alone and unprotected inside the labyrinth of the wreck. As tensions rise and oxygen dwindles, the pair must use their newfound bond to escape the wreck and the relentless barrage of bloodthirsty great white sharks.”

The filmmakers are hoping to present the pitch to the Cannes market with production starting in the fall. 

47 Meters Down: The Wreck is the perfect continuation of our shark-filled franchise,” said Byron Allen, founder/chairman/CEO of Allen Media Group. “This film will once again have moviegoers terrified and on the edge of their seats.”

Johannes Roberts adds, “We can’t wait for audiences to be trapped underwater with us again. 47 Meters Down: The Wreck is going to be the biggest, most-intense film of this franchise.”

She will be joined by Billie Piper (Scoop), Steve Buscemi (Boardwalk Empire), Evie Templeton (Return to Silent Hill), Owen Painter (The Handmaid’s Tale), and Noah Taylor (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory).

We don’t know much about much about what Wednesday season two will entail. However, Ortega has stated that this season will be more horror focused. “We’re definitely leaning into a little bit more horror.
