Bloody bones on the first step…
Bloody bones on the second step….

Humans just seem to need to believe in curses and hobgoblins. It’s more interesting to think that there are hobgoblins and to be afraid than not to be afraid and to be bored, I suppose. Who wouldn’t rather live in a bad horror flick than be sitting here typing this?

The death of a molecular biologist has fuelled renewed speculation about a “curse” connected to an ancient corpse.

Tom Loy, 63, had analysed DNA found on “Oetzi”, the Stone Age hunter whose remains were discovered in 1991.

Dr Loy died in unclear circumstances in Australia two weeks ago, it has been announced, making him the seventh person connected with Oetzi to die.



  1. Kent Goldings says:

    I predict that everyone will die. We’re all cursed apparently.

  2. RTaylor says:

    The hardest temperature to maintain is 98.6 F. I know I’m going to die, it’s the timing and circumstances I worry about.

  3. Rob says:

    Someone in his sixties dying? Unheard of!

  4. Woodcubed says:

    Most of those who died seem to have been in their sixties. That or they were in very dangerous professions. Yet it is clear that none of that has any bearing on this case. Definetely a curse.

    Return of King Tut an his mummy dust. Or maybe The Return Of Dr Phibes (C).

  6. Jetfire says:

    I just saw Oetzi pn the History Channel. Now all who watched it are going to recieve a phone call and then die within 24 hours. I love som of the ideas we silly humans come up with.

  7. g-man says:

    I think I heard somewhere that all the people involved in building King Tut’s tomb are dead now. But I can’t prove it.

  8. meetsy says:

    Oh my god, and now we’ve all read about it….so does this mean we all will die, too?
