Grave Robbing	comment	A grave robber digs up a grave or breaks into a crypt or mausoleum to steal the corpse inside, whether it be for medical research, profit by selling the body to medical researchers (which used to be done by shady professions called Bodysnatchers or Resurrectionists), resurrection of the dead, or... whatever reason. In some situations, this can also include vandalism of the corpse if the robber is trying to make a statement or just feels especially spiteful. This practice is generally frowned upon, to the point that most modern archaeologists have been avoiding burial sites for some time now. Not only is desecrating someone's body after death considered extremely offensive in the vast majority of cultures, it's also pretty gross. Either way, stealing a body from the grave and any items buried with it still counts as theft and is therefore illegal. This is often part of The Igor's job description. Do not confuse with Robbing the Dead, which is the taking of personal belongings from a corpse. It should be noted, however, that the term "grave robbing" is sometimes used to refer to both tropes.

He winds up in a cemetery and finds a grave belonging to "Princess Beautiful," whom he digs up. It turns out she died of baldness. Also, rather than her spirit being vengeful, her skeleton simply thanks him for freeing her and wanders away. The events of the Adventure Time: Distant Lands special "Together Again" reveals that after Finn and Jake died, Peppermint Butler took their bones without getting their approval.

Grave Robbing / int_14d341dc	comment	In Star Trek Online, the second expansion Delta Rising revealed that the Kobali, who populate their race by reviving the dead via a special virus who transform them into Kobali, have gone into this, taken fallen Vaadwaur and changing them into Kobali. This angers Harry Kim, as he was never told this. This gets even worse when he finds out that they have the real Harry Kim and are turning him into a Kobali, too. This last incident makes Harry decide to force the Kobali into changing their rules over someone being revived. The Kobali usually don't rob actual graves, but that's because there appears to be limits to how damaged a corpse can be and still be possible to turn into a living Kobali — the main source of Vaadwaur is actually a giant cryostasis facility meant to preserve thousands of Vaadwaur for their eventual return. The Kobali just keep an eye on it and pull out corpses for transformation whenever a cryopod fails.

Grave Robbing / int_1a51d671	comment	Frankenstein: Most versions have this as the primary method of retrieving "materials" for the creation of the monster, including Frankenstein (1931) and The Curse of Frankenstein. The problems start to pile up once the creation needs fresher parts, like a brain. Featured in the Mel Brooks parody Young Frankenstein, where the characters dig until they hit Rock Bottom in a rainstorm. In Frankenstein Created Woman, Christina breaks into Hans's grave to steal his head. Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell opens with Dr. Helder's alcoholic assistant digging up a corpse and meeting a constable, which leads to Simon getting caught and being sent to an asylum. In Frankenstein's Castle of Freaks, Frankenstein's assistant steals a girl's body from the graveyard. Genz takes the opportunity to grope the corpse. Lady Frankenstein opens with Tom Lynch and his cronies stealing bodies for Dr. Frankenstein. In Army of Frankensteins, one of Igor's main duties is securing body parts from graveyards for Mad Scientist Dr. Finski's experiments.

Grave Robbing / int_5e150650	comment	In Exalted, grave robbing is discouraged not only for cultural reasons but also because desecrating a tomb/corpse will unleash a raging Hungry Ghost (one of the person's souls that remains with the body to protect it) on the local area. Powerful people often receive highly secure tombs as much to reduce the chance of anybody angering the resident ghost to protect their valuables and dignity (although lavish tombs also help keep the ghost placated).

Grave Robbing / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons has enough of it to make twists and subversions relatively common. The Entomber is a specialized undead monster that's a perfect minion for necromancers, since it has the magical ability to exhume a corpse through up to ten feet of loose earth, which leaves no trace of its passage and doesn't harm the body. The undead gets its name from the fact that the same ability can just as easily be reversed to dispose of evidence or leave an opponent Buried Alive. Ravenloft: The adventure Ship of Horrors pits heroes against a grave-robbing clan of reanimated corpses which provide bodies to a nasty necromancer. According to Van Richten's Guide to the Lich, there's even a high-level spell Ghoul Lattice that makes the work easy by digging a maze of tunnels that connects to all graves and other underground pockets in an area that may be a mile or more wide. Robbing graves is one of many, many misdeeds that may warrant a Powers check, as the act can draw the attention of the Dark Powers that rule the realm. Forgotten Realms sourcebooks and novels has "fun" with long-dead (and sometimes un-dead) people's tombs. This includes things like... "Tomb robbers" turning out to be a bunch of ghouls, eating corpses but always ready to diversify the diet. "Tomb robbers" turning out to be there about a certain Sealed Evil in a Can, so a clash with tomb guards accidentally breaks the can, which they otherwise could avoid. Adventurers breaking and entering a crypt only to face a room seemingly empty except one old man with a pipe, who answered the obvious question by stunning everyone (as in "power word"), introducing himself as Elminster and stating that "despoilers of tombs" will leave him and his friends alone—right now.

This reaches its natural conclusion in the Halloween Episode Undead Nightmare, where Seth's reaction to the Zombie Apocalypse is to play poker and hold parties with the walking dead, and to express disgust with Marston for wanting to end the curse that brought them back to life. Red Dead Redemption 2 has a very atmospheric mission where you must catch some graverobbers in the above-ground cemetery of Saint Denis, although it's ambiguous whether these guys are merely Robbing the Dead or after the bodies themselves.

Grave Robbing / int_a183d57f	comment	Bender of Futurama apparently has a grave robbery kit, and by the end of the episode "The Luck of the Fryrish" is "one skull away from a Mouseketeer reunion." In the same episode he is seen emerging from an open grave saying that "no one can say that I don't own John Larroquette's spine". He also says that grave robbing isn't a crime in the 31st century...but knowing Bender that's probably a lie.

Grave Robbing / int_a2c37f38	comment	Planescape: Torment has a guild of people known as the Collectors whose job is to find dead bodies and turn them in to the Dustmen, a local sect that runs the Mortuary and prepares and inters the bodies of Sigil's dead. The Collectors almost always strip the bodies of everything valuable first. One of your party members, Annah, is one... and met you by finding your Player Character dead and collecting his body. (The game starts with you waking up at the morgue, and you meet up with her again later.) You can later discover that a particularly rich Collector has become rich by finding ways into the Dustmen's own crypts, essentially robbing them of their own charges and re-selling them back. The Dustmen will not be happy to learn this.

Also the Romans, anticipating this possibility, put some serious security on Jesus's tomb: blocked it with a heavy stone, put a seal on that (breaking the seal alone was a serious offense), and posted guards. All that still didn't keep him inside.

According to Van Richten's Guide to the Lich, there's even a high-level spell Ghoul Lattice that makes the work easy by digging a maze of tunnels that connects to all graves and other underground pockets in an area that may be a mile or more wide. Robbing graves is one of many, many misdeeds that may warrant a Powers check, as the act can draw the attention of the Dark Powers that rule the realm.

The gang of professional thieves are not impressed when they break into Van Helsing's high-security vault and find only a coffin, even though it's made of silver. However their leader is convinced this is just a trick to convince people there's nothing valuable inside except a corpse. The fact that a Booby Trap kills two of them with Spikes of Doom the moment they move it only reinforces this belief. Unfortunately the only thing inside the coffin is Dracula.

Grave Robbing / int_c19c6efa	comment	Minecraft lets you rob treasure from pyramids in the desert. Each pyramid can contain things like gold, iron, diamonds, bones, and rotten flesh, but they're also guarded by TNT traps that trigger if you step on the pressure plate. Doing so will destroy all the treasure and kill you. Jungle temples have arrow traps that are triggered the moment you walk through the linked tripwires or destroying the wire itself. The only safe way to disarm the trap is to use shears to cut the wire. Luckily, you can just stand on one side of the hall to avoid the arrows and just loot the dispensers of their arrows. Jungle temples also have chests that contain similar treasure from the pyramids.

Grave Robbing / int_cd263cb9	comment	The 1945 film The Body Snatcher, directed by Robert Wise, starring Boris Karloff (and with Bela Lugosi in a bit part). This was based on a Robert Louis Stevenson short story of the same that was Very Loosely Based on a True Story of Burke and Hare (body snatchers who sold the body of a dead tenant to pay his back rent, liked the money, and decided to increase their income by increasing their supply of the dead.) Karloff's character is specifically compared to Burke and Hare a few times, and the doctor he's stealing the bodies for is supposed to be a protege of Dr. Knox, Burke and Hare's own main buyer. In the later film Corridors Of Blood, Karloff plays a well-meaning doctor forced to buy cadavers, acquired in this way by a sinister fellow named Resurrection Joe (a young Christopher Lee).
