A 65-year-old man died in a cinema auditorium last week while watching a screening of horror movie The Conjuring 2.
上周,一名65岁男子在观看恐怖片《招魂2》时死于电影院。
The incident occurred at the Sri Balasubramaniar Cinema in Tiruvannamalai, a town in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The cinema-goer, from Andhra Pradesh, had complained of chest pains during the film's climax, and fainted shortly afterwards.
这个事件发生在印度泰米尔纳德邦特鲁瓦纳马莱镇上的Sri Balasubramaniar电影院。这位来自安德拉邦来的观影者,在影片达到高潮时自称胸疼,不久就晕倒了。
He was rushed to the nearby Old Government Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead. Medics ordered his body to be sent to the Tiruvannamalai Government Medical College Hospital for post-mortem but, according to the Times of India, the cadaver, and the person charged with transporting it, have both gone missing.
随后,他被迅速送往附近的旧政府医院,不过医生宣布其已经死亡。之后,医生要求将他的尸体送到特鲁瓦纳马莱政府医学院以验尸,不过,据《印度时报》报道,他的尸体、以及负责运输的那个人,竟然双双失踪了。
While there are no doubt rational explanations for both the man's death and the disappearance of his body, the story has fuelled a wave of supernatural panic on social media that has accompanied the film's release.
对于此人的死亡和他的尸体的消失,目前并没有合理的解释。同时,伴随着该片的上映,这个事件已经在社交媒体上激起了一波超自然恐慌情绪。
A video purporting to show a woman who "got possessed while watching The Conjuring 2" has been viewed close to five million times since being uploaded to Facebook last week, with many viral news sites in South East Asia reporting the "possession" as fact. However, the video in question is thought to have been filmed in 2013, long before the release of film.
