Are mummies cursed?
no there is no such thing as that
What is the Tutankhamun curse?
Howard Carter entered the burial chamber of Tutankhamun on 17 February 1923. On 6 March, Lord Carnarvon (his financial backer) was bitten by a mosquito. The bite became infected and he died on 5 April. Rumors began to spread that the curse of Tutankhamun's tomb had claimed its first victim. According to Christine el-Mahdy, it was the Arab peoples of Egypt in the first century AD who were the first to suggest that a mummy could come to life and attack anyone who broke into a pharaohs tomb. This idea remained popular partly because the Ancient Egyptian language and culture had long since been suppressed and so there was no-one to correct this misunderstanding. When Carvarvon died following the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun, the notion of a curse was revitalized (but without the reanimation of the mummy).
