Horror setup story: unfrozen undead want back in their thawing graves

Les Diablerets, translated as "the abode of devils", is releasing The Ghosts of the Glacier from Tsanfleuron, the long-frozen "field of flowers" in the Swiss Alps (Sean Flynn for GQ). For a positive spin on disappearing icepack, Sarah Gibbens, writing for National Geographic, covered the related discoveries last year and wrote that climate change may have just helped solve a cold case in Switzerland.

Nice that the old lady finally got to bury her parents. The human part of the story was touching, the climate change part, well, chilling.
