It was a day like any other day.
He got his morning coffee, grabbed a bagel, and went to work.
Everyone else was already drilling away once he had reached the construction zone, a parking lot needing repair. He put on his construction helmet and vest and headed to the construction site.
As soon as he reached his fellow construction workers, someone called to him to hurry over. They had found a skeleton.
Now who would think to bury a skeleton in a lot that would eventually become a place for parking?
A serial murderer, a young widow who's true crime was loving too much, or was it the bones of a little ol' lady who found herself at the wrong place, at the wrong time?
I'm sure these thoughts were among the many that ran through the heads of the people who discovered the lost skeleton of King Richard III in England last year.
What I really want to know is how the hell they figured out it was a king. Is there a special police investigation unit whose sole purpose is to find the lost skeletons of past royalty?
Or maybe a distinguished professor at Oxford University was strolling by and recognized the defined jawline infamously of the royal bloodline of England?
Or was this a case similar to the film "The Goonies" in which a group of kids were searching for a lost treasure and instead found the skeleton of a random dude?
Whatever the case may be behind how the skeleton of King Richard III was discovered, I think:
- It's pretty messed up no one found or try to find his body for centuries.
- Poltergeist needs to have another sequel based off of this strange scenario. It should be titled : "Poltergeist: The King's Awakening". Spooooky.
Spielberg start drafting a script, and Stephen King, start drafting your next book.
*Author's note: Yes, I know the skeleton was found because of an archaeological dig. I like creating humorous anecdotes.
