Remorseful tourist returns ‘cursed’ artifacts stolen from Pompeii
A Canadian woman has returned artefacts stolen from Pompeii 15 years ago, blaming the pilfered items for causing years of bad luck. Claiming the stolen ceramics are ‘cursed,’ she mailed them back to an Italian travel agent she used to arrange the Pompeii trip in 2005.
The woman, named only as ‘Nicole’ says the ceramics have ‘so much negative energy’ and believes they are somehow linked to her suffering breast cancer twice and years of financial problems.
