A Moviegoer Died After Watching ‘The Conjuring 2’… But That’s Not Even The Creepiest Part

“The Conjuring 2” is set to be the summer’s biggest, hottest horror movie — but the contents of the film itself may not even be the scariest aspect.

According to The Telegraph, a 65-year-old man in India experienced chest pains during the spooky movie’s climax, then promptly fainted. He was rushed to a nearby hospital and, sadly, pronounced dead.

Okay, not that odd at all, you may be saying. He was elderly, the movie was scary, sometimes bad things just happen.

That’s not all.

His body was sent by doctors to Tiruvannamalai Government Medical College Hospital, presumably for post-mortem examination and an autopsy. That was the last time he — and the driver tasked with transporting his body — were seen.

Authorities are still trying to identify the deceased man, as well as find both his body and the person responsible for its transportation.

It’s utterly bizarre, but as I’ve come to learn, often truth is far scarier than fiction. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
