Line 9:
* Happens more than once in ''[[Detective Conan]]'', specially in the case of {{spoiler|Sanae Kouda and her [[Knight Templar Big Brother]] Masao.}}
 
== FanficFan Works ==
* In the ''[[Death Note]]'' fic ''[[A Cure for Love]]'' when [[Original Character|V]] begins work on the Kira case, she finds {{spoiler|Naomi Misora}}'s body.
* Referenced in ''Lust over Pendle'' when Draco is escaping Malfoy Manor while it's under attack from the Ministry. The Bride is a family ghost who, legend has it, is supposed to have been a Muggle who married into the family, only to vanish during the wedding celebrations after everyone had gotten snowed in and someone decided it'd be a good idea to play a game of hide-and-seek. Her body was found several years later, locked in a trunk. The Bride, by the way, guards one of the alternate escape routes - the one Draco ends up having to use - and demands a password from Draco before she'll let him past. {{spoiler|He figures out the right one.}}
Line 28:
== Live-Action TV ==
* In a 1970 episode of the soap ''[[All My Children]]'', a teen named Bobby Martin goes up in his family's attic to wax his skis. The actor was then abruptly fired and so Bobby was never seen again. Years later, the show lampshaded this by having a character go into the same attic and find a skeleton with a pair of skis, wearing a ski hat with "Bobby" on it—a comedic example of a [[Bus Crash]].
* In ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'', {{spoiler|Starbuck comes back from the dead and finds her '''own''' body. She and the deeply religious Cylon Leoben are completely freaked out by it. He actually takes off.}}
* ''[[Bones]]'': Exty years after Brennan's parents disappeared (when she was 13), the body of her mother is found. Many other episodes involve this as well only for victims unrelated to the main cast.
* In the British series ''[[Case Histories]]'' the detective is charged with finding a girl who disappeared thirty years ago. He finds her in her neighbor's garden.
Line 37:
== [[Real Life]] ==
* The body of Anastasia Romanov was finally found, disproving all who claimed to be her.
* [[Truth in Television]]: The news as of December 2010 iswas all abuzz with having found bones that may belong to Amelia Earheart. The famed aviatrix vanished in [[The Thirties]]. Sadly, the discovery was inconclusive.
* There was a news story about a woman who found the body of her son, who had hanged himself in the basement years earlier. Nobody had happened to have gone into that room since then. They had thought he ran away from home.
