    WTF?! The weird mini COFFINS of Arthur's Seat

Buckle your seat belt for this long ride everyone as in addition to the weird-ass coffin story we also get a wee listen to Karen's son Max's sweet Scottish accent and delve into the main (and paramount) discussion of the day: pants or trousers?!!!

    The Dancing Coffins of Barbados

    The Dancing Coffins of Barbados

    A small stone crypt stands abandoned in a centuries-old churchyard on the Caribbean island of Barbados.  It was once the tomb of the wealthy Chase family, and today is the site of one of the most famous paranormal mysteries in history.  Between 1812 ad 1820, the burial vault was opened 4 times to receive the dead, and each time the crypt was unsealed onlookers found the coffins in the tomb tossed about wildly.  Was is earthquakes, floods, voodoo or something even more sister that moved the caskets about in the tomb?  Join us as we explore the tantalizing mystery of the Dancing Coffins of Barbados on this episode of Beyond the Fringe.
