Video: Corpse of child saint opens her eyes

Video footage has captured the creepy moment a child saint who died 300 years ago appears to suddenly open her eyes.

The corpse of St Innocence lies at the Cathedral of Guadalajara in Mexico. She supposedly died at the hands of her father after taking holy communion against his wishes, before being treated with wax and laid to rest.

Many are questioning the validity of the footage, which was shot in 2012 but only recently gained traction online. Similar phenomena have been noted in the past and explained by changes in lighting or humidity.
