I'm trying to find out

How she did die? I'm reading that the organs and such were taken out and there was a process to mummify the body, but why is it in such a terror stricken pose? If you found that out before I do, let me know!

You sure that's terror?

Maybe someone told a funny joke and she died of laughter. It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, you know.
