I am telling you, Sandman, it wasn't just Napoleon - apparently all the people from this thread were scared silly, too...
Seriously, though: I understand it's been a very long time since the thread was started. But I still hope somebody can shed a little light on this.
Pretty please...?
P.S. Incidentally, there is a cool recording of sound reverberations inside the Great Pyramid (nothing paranormal, just very interesting, an imposing sound). I don't remember the name of the site, but it should be easy enough to find something by googling "sound + pyramid" etc.
(As you can probably gather, I am in a pretty lazy mood right now...)

I can't find any sound files, but I ran across this neat webcam.
Looking forward to more information on this topic in general. This is the first time I've heard such a thing about Napoleon.
Though this is probably a far-fetched idea, it shows that there could have been a prosaic explanation for tales of a curse.

OK, I seem to have finally traced the original (printed) report of the story, if nothing else.
Apparently, it was published in John Monkhouse's The Last Moments of Buonaparte! (= sic, with an exclamation mark), London, 1821.
I found the reference here.
(Read at your own risk if either Mr. Sarkozy or la nouvelle Mme Sarkozy affect your blood pressure... )
Now... does anyone have access to the book in question?
