They placed a guard at her grave and felt she was finally buried for good. The guard failed to check in for 4 days, so a local priest went to find him, it was said that he his rotting body was near his post, with his throat ripped out. Anna was once again missing. She was then hunted down and captured on the outskirts of town. The angry mob then burned her at the stake, tied to a scarecrow in cornfield. She was then saved by a rainstorm, only to have her bottom half burned. The story had captured the attention of a witch hunter and religious fanatic.

A gurgled voice answered him. She said she cursed the townspeople for falsely accusing her. She also simply asked to be buried AWAY from her late husband that was in the plot next to the one the villagers kept putting her in. She had made one simple request and threatened that if they buried her there, she would keep coming back. That no man nor element would stop her from spilling the blood of all the villagers!
