In the 19th century, a significant concern among people was the fear of being buried alive. This anxiety was not unfounded, as both medical professionals and advocates pointed to numerous instances of close calls and genuine cases. The theme captured the public's imagination and was prominently featured in literature, with Edgar Allan Poe being one of the most notable authors to explore this morbid subject. "Buried Alive" examines how this fear permeated Victorian society to such an extent that costly and often macabre precautions were employed to confirm death before interment. Jan Bondeson has crafted a social history that delves into this fear, detailing the creation of safety coffins equipped with bell ropes and hatches, as well as the measures taken to prevent premature burials.
