Woman who knocked on her own coffin during wake dies after hospitalization.

A 76-year-old woman in Ecuador who had surprised her relatives by knocking on her coffin during her wake earlier this month has died after spending a week in intensive care. Bella Montoya reportedly woke up and started knocking after spending five hours inside her coffin at a funeral home. The woman died from an ischemic stroke, according to Ecuador's health ministry. A technical committee has been formed to review how the hospital issues death certificates.
