When my grandmother was working at a gas station across from the graveyard back in the 40s she knew the grave digger. He was this poor old man that would dig the graves with nothing but a shovel.
Most grave diggers dig at night in the summer so it be nice and cool. But he ALWAYS did it during the day. So he would come to my grandmother's store and buy a cool drink.
One day my grandmother asked him "Why do you always dig during the day why don't you dig at night?"
He said "Oh No no NO! There is NO WAY I can ever dig at night!"
She laughed and said "Why, are you scared? You know there isn't anything in that graveyard that can hurt you, right."
He said "I know that, but there is plenty in there that will make me hurt myself."
