You chose trick

Here’s one to keep you up tonight.

In a museum in Philadelphia lies a woman who turned into soap. Buried in wet, airless ground in the 1800s, her body slowly changed into a waxy substance scientists call adipocere, or “grave wax,” formed by the same reaction that turns oils into soap. She was dug up in the 1870s, and she is still on display today.

Too much? We’re not that cruel. Here’s your treat anyway.
