The fear of death is very natural, after all, it’s an inevitable part of life and I'm sorry to break to you and start on a cheery note but every single one of you, will one day be dead.

For some people, the fear of dying is so great that they can be considered Thanataphobes, suffering from an intense fear of death and the dying process.

For most people, it’s a nagging inevitability that once happened, doesn't bear much thinking about but what if one day you went in for the big sleep but then found yourself waking up surrounded by the claustrophobic walls of a silk lined coffin with no way to get out!

Today on Macabre London, we uncover the many stories of people buried alive in London's cemeteries.
