Ever hear of a crystal that forms on bodies? Meet Vivianite — the spooky, little-known mineral known as the "Necro-Crystal." 

Don't worry, it's not haunting—just science. As a body starts to rot, phosphorus trapped in bones and teeth gets released. If there's iron and water present? Kaboom. Vivianite begins to crystallize—directly on the remains. 

This foreboding blue-green crystal has been found on fossilized ancient bone, on mammoth tusks, and even on freshly dead human bodies. Yes, yes indeed. 

Centuries buried. or a few years—Vivianite does not judge. Death is its playground. 

It's beautiful. It's bizarre. And it grows on the dead.
