There are many spells in the tombs of Egyptian pharaohs. Are these things real?

There is a mantra circulating in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun: "Whoever disturbs the peace of this Pharaoh, the winged god of death will come to his head. I am Tutankhamun's guardian Or, I used desert fire to drive away those tomb robbers."

In 1914, the British Assistant Lord Carnarvon and his assistant Howard Carter came to Egypt to inspect the Valley of the Kings. Eight years later, They discovered an underground tomb that had never been excavated before. This was the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun. The lid of the Pharaoh's sarcophagus was made of rose-colored granite, and the entire sarcophagus was hewn from a single piece of fine-textured light yellow granite. Inside the sarcophagus is a gilded wooden coffin with a carved golden image of the young pharaoh. The innermost layer is its golden coffin, which contains the pharaoh's mummy. The tomb was so rich and luxurious that people spent a year just cleaning up the treasures that were buried with it.

At first scientists did not believe in spells, but the events that happened one after another, and the deaths of the archaeologists who excavated Tutankhamun’s tomb in a short period of time, made people feel chilling. It also shocked scientists. On February 18, 1923, Lord Carnarvon suddenly fell seriously ill and died. His sister wrote in her memoirs that before he died, he kept shouting in the high fever: I heard his breathing, I want to go with him.

It is said that when Lord Carnarvon was about to enter the gate of Tutankhamen's tomb, a mosquito bit him, which eventually led to septicemia and death. What is incredible is that the doctor who later examined the Pharaoh's mummy reported that there was also a scar under the mummy's left cheek, which was exactly the same as the scar where Carnarvon was bitten by a mosquito. Six months later, Carnarvon's younger brother, Colonel Aubrey Hebbard, who had also entered the Pharaoh's tomb, suddenly suffered from schizophrenia and committed suicide. The nurse who had cared for Lord Carnarvon at Cairo Hospital also died soon after. .

Even more incredible and terrifying things are yet to come. In the next few years, 20 people visited Tutankhamun’s tomb or inspected Tutankhamun’s mummy. Many people died suddenly in various circumstances. This made people fear the curse of Tutankhamun's tomb.

Until later, when Miguel Mehler, the director of the Cairo Museum in Egypt, was responsible for directing workers to transport cultural relics from Tutankhamun’s tomb, he fearlessly said to the people around him: : "I have dealt with Egyptian tombs and mummies countless times in my life. Aren't I doing well?" However, less than four weeks after speaking, Mehler died suddenly at the age of 52.

People have been unable to explain these phenomena. Although many people think that the curse is not credible, the various explanations from a scientific perspective are really unconvincing. Are the Egyptian Pharaoh's spells true?
