This rich old guy had a thing for a younger woman who died before he could marry her, so he built a mausoleum for her and the family let him put her there. Not long afterwards he secretly took the body to his house and "restored" the body by scraping off the decay and insects and whatnot, and then trying to preserve her. He even put a layer of wax on her face and shaped it to resemble a human face, and replaced her eyes with glass ones.He was pretty crazy, and when he was caught (the deceased woman's sister got suspicious and confronted the guy) he said she even came back to life and spoke to him...I think at his hearing they decided he hadn't actually broken any laws. Later they found out he'd been having a  *ahem* physical relationship with the departed.I guess if he was a lich and she actually was reanimated it would fit that description from the preview perfectly.Sometimes truth is much stranger than fiction.Note: She was put on display for a while after the incident was brought to light. The pictures they showed were too creepy for words. They spoke to a guy who saw it when he was a child and he said that it's appearance was very disturbing and a lot of them had nightmares for a long time afterwards.</blockquote>
