16 | An index of tropes about mummies, which are preserved corpses often wrapped in gauze bandages. They usually end up rising from their tombs as zombie-like beings. Mummies are usually pharaohs or other important people who lived and died millennia ago in AncientEgypt, perhaps calling upon the powers of [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Anubis]] to help them cheat death. |
