Line 24:
There is often an ambiguity as to whether the petrified person is completely turned to stone, or whether they are 'encased' in a thin layer of stone in a manner similar to [[Harmless Freezing]]. You can often see this when a character is only partially petrified - they will seem only to be encased in stone, and may break out. This is probably to avoid the obvious circulatory problems with having a completely petrified limb.
See [[Puppet Permutation]] for turning creatures into dolls and [[Wax Museum Morgue]] for a similar trope when the monster (or whatever) that petrified the people decides to put them on display in a gallery.
