The urban legend goes that the owners of the inn hid her body in the basement to avoid bad publicity. The Innkeepers: The main ghost at the Yankee Pedlar Inn is Madeline O'Malley, a bride who hanged herself in the 1800s when her groom changed his mind at the altar.

Any initial emotions from the eerie reunion have to wait when the house falls apart and they have to get out. She appears to him and his guest as if she'd risen from her grave through supernatural means, but because Roderick already couldn't shake the concern that he buried his wife alive, neither man doubts that Madeline is, in fact, not undead. When she wakes up, she claws her way to freedom and in a barely lucid state stumbles her way back home to her husband Roderick. The Fall of the House of Usher (1928, France): Upon her apparent death, Madeline is prematurely entombed in her wedding dress.Day of the Dead (1985): An Incongruously-Dressed Zombie wears a wedding dress.While Mina's wedding dress was designed to fit the Victorian standard to emphasize Mina's modesty, Lucy's costume was meant to emphasize her new lack of humanity, the lace and frills comparable to that of a clown or a lizard. Word Of God claims that it was deliberately designed to evoke the design of a wedding dress, her subsequent death and vampirization occurs at the same time as when Mina and Jonathan marry in Transylvania. Bram Stoker's Dracula: Lucy after she comes back to life as a vampire is found wearing the white dress she was buried in.Beetlejuice: During the climax, Barbara Maitland is summoned into her wedding dress thanks to Otho's seance-turned-exorcism.The last that's seen of Elena is her corpse in a wedding dress endlessly repeating "Koshchei.". just as a much younger and beautiful woman a glamoured-up Baba Yaga showed up to take the spot. Long after she'd died imprisoned, he dug her up (having brutally murdered the men who'd killed her), reanimated (not truly resurrected, that was beyond him) and married her. Hellboy: Koshchei the Deathless was leader of a mercenary band in life, with an Ignored Enamored Underling named Elena.She never left the house and Alex had another pose as her on the boat so that any investigation would be far away from Corrine's true resting place. He makes his way to Hellbane Manor the night it's to be demolished and finds Alex there tearing open a wall that holds Corrine's remains from the day she was wedded.

Whether a true ghost or Batman's overactive imagination, he sees her bridal image everywhere and hears her pleas to solve her case. Her husband, Alex March, was suspected of having pushed her for her money, but nothing could be proven.
