(Reuters) - A Vietnamese man dug up his wife's corpse and slept beside it for five years because he wanted to hug her in bed, an online newspaper reported on Thursday.
The 55-year-old man from a small town in the central province of Quang Nam opened up his wife's grave in 2004, molded clay around the remains to give the figure of a woman, put clothes on her and then placed her in his bed, Vietnamnet.vn said.
The man, Le Van, told the website that after his wife died in 2003 he slept on top of her grave, but about 20 months later he worried about rain, wind and cold, so he decided to dig a tunnel into the grave "to sleep with her."
His children found out, though, and prevented him from going to the grave. So one night in November 2004 he dug up his wife's remains and took them home, Vietnamnet reported.
"I'm a person that does things differently. I'm not like normal people," he was quoted as saying.
Don't be so presumptuous, Le Van. You're not that different. Don't let people tell you that digging tunnels to your dead wife's coffin and sleeping there isn't normal. People just don't know true love anymore, do they Le Van? It's kind of like people misunderstanding me when I dress up like Heidi Klum and marry, kiss and make love to my blown up, life size picture. What? Screw you. Heidi sent me hidden messages through the microwave that she wanted to marry me. Think I'm gonna say no? What...You gonna doubt me now?
