Rosalia Lombardo died of pneumonia at the age of two in Palermo, Sicily on December 6th, 1920. She is the best preserved child in the world and she was embalmed by the country’s best embalmer, Alfredo Salafia.
Urban legend has it that Rosalia opens her eyes every now and then. Most of the time, it was brushed off as just a rumor, until someone set up a camera and discovered this.

Upon one of my visits to pals Alice and Kate in Portland, Oregon, we found ourselves near a used bookstore. I went in and refused to come out. I was pretty sure I had died of unknown causes upon crossing the threshold and having found my heaven I wasn't coming back without a fight. After mouth-to-mouth by both Kate and Alice taking turns to save me, I'd had enough. I left. I'll never forgive either one of them. That kind of intimacy was horrifying.
