50 Foot Woman co-star dead for a year.

Post by The Hen »

Yvette Vickers has been found mummified in her house. reports reckon she has been dead for a year.

Here is the Daily Mail's account of the discovery of her death.

She didn't deserve to be left for a year.

Shame.

She wasn't the 50-ft woman (that was Allison Hayes). Yvette Vickers played the mistress of the 50-ft woman's husband. Needed only a small house, but lots of attention.

Correction to title made and I still find it a sad way to go even if she wasn't 50 foot tall.

Yes, it is, as it seems she didn't have any family or anyone close who would have checked on her. On the other hand, perhaps she preferred to be alone?

Perhaps she always fancied playing The Mummy?

The mailman kept stuffing fan mail in her letter box. So some people cared, just not those who were physically closer to her.
Bah!

Aren't mailmen trained to look for significant signs like mail turning yellow?

People go on trips and forget to hold their mail. I guess it's sad that nobody missed her for that long. I can't assume the way she died was sad, however. She might have just dropped dead of stroke or heart attack. And maybe she was happily reclusive. You just never know.

What I found interesting from the account s that she had a heater running next to her for a year--whopaid her utility bills and why wasn't the power/gas turned off if she didn't pay the bill for nearly a year?

She might have had an accountant that took care of that stuff, but surely he/she would have noticed that she wasn't spending any money for a year.

Pretty sad story, to have no one who cared enough about whether she was alive or dead that it took a year to discover her.

Might well have had utilities deducted from her account automatically...that's common enough.

From what I heard, she was an independent, private person, and abruptly leaving for up to several months was not unheard of for her.

I would like to know the brand of that heater too. It would make a rather interesting product endorsement.

Probably higher than her 50' friend then?

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
