Record summary

The tomb of the two brothers, excavated at Beni Hasan in 1907, became associated with mummy display, dreams, and later supernatural anecdotes in museum culture. It is not itself a nineteenth-century case and should normally be excluded from a strict date filter, but it can help researchers track how Egyptian funerary remains acquired haunting narratives through later museum circulation. The identifiable archaeological object and publication history make it a useful boundary or control lead. Any alleged dreams or apparitions must be traced to a dated memoir, newspaper, or museum account rather than repeated folklore.
