Grave of Spaghetti — The Carny Mummy

Laurinburg, NC

Cancetto “Spaghetti” Farmica was a carnival worker whose unclaimed body reportedly spent years preserved at a Laurinburg funeral home before finally being buried in 1972. Local accounts say his grave was sealed beneath an extraordinary amount of concrete, giving the obscure showman one of North Carolina’s strangest burial stories.
