Residents of Foase in the Atwima Kwanwoma District were thrown into a state of shock on Thursday, November 5, 2026, after a hunter discovered a 28-year-old man inside a coffin at a local cemetery. The man, identified as Foster, is a well-known local drug store operator. The bizarre discovery has sparked intense speculation regarding spiritual activities and suspected money rituals among the local population.
The encounter occurred when a local hunter, whose dogs were behaving unusually near the graveyard, decided to investigate an exposed coffin. According to reports, the hunter initially suspected the presence of a criminal or a wild animal. He reportedly threatened to shoot into the coffin to flush out whoever was inside, at which point Foster emerged from the casket and revealed himself to the startled hunter.
Following the discovery, rumors quickly spread throughout Foase that Foster may have been attempting a ritual to acquire wealth. Some community members claimed the drug store operator had spent as many as three days inside the coffin as part of a spiritual requirement. While these claims remain unverified by official sources, the incident has left the town's inhabitants deeply unsettled and questioning the motives behind the man's actions.
Local police have been notified of the development and have launched an investigation into the circumstances that led the 28-year-old to be inside the casket at the cemetery. While Foster has been identified by residents, the police are expected to provide further clarity on the situation, including whether any criminal charges will be filed. For now, the Foase cemetery remains a site of significant public curiosity as the investigation continues.
