Is it true?

Question

That you can you walk in a graveyard and walk over your own grave?

Where did this saying came from?

When your alive not dead...Lol!!!

Answer 1

Tsk, Tsk, trick question.

You have purchased or own a grave plot in which you presume you will be buried when you die. You walk over it.

Answer 2

^I believe the expression is, I feel like someone just walked over may grave. It has nothing to do with being in a graveyard. Some people say this if they suddenly get a cold chill for no reason.

Answer 3

How can I walk over my own grave unless I am already dead and buried, and my ghost is walking through the graveyard? I never heard that one before.

Answer 4

When my grandfather died, my grandmother bought a double plot for him and her. She even had her name and date of birth carved on the stone so all that we have to do when she dies is carve her death date on the stone. (This really is pretty common.) She can walk on her own plot, her future resting spot, whenever she visits my grandfather. I guess it's a question of whether it's technically a "grave" if it doesn't have a body in it yet.

Answer 5

Yep, the saying goes "somebody`s just walked over my grave" when you shiver. My problem is, i`m being buried at sea ???????

Answer 6

It's sometimes a question of "Been there, done that".

Answer 7

umm no ...
