AN unusual social media post promoting a so-called “grave-sleeping” challenge has drawn widespread attention online, with many users questioning both its purpose and authenticity.

The challenge, which began circulating on Threads, invites participants to spend the night inside a grave, testing their mental, physical, and emotional endurance.

According to the post, contestants are required to remain in a grave from midnight until 7 am, with the last person to emerge declared the winner.

Cash prizes are reportedly being offered, including RM2,500 for first place, RM1,000 for second, and RM500 for third.

The event is said to take place at Jalan Pusara Cemetery in Kuala Terengganu, and participation is described as free of charge.

The bizarre nature of the challenge has sparked mixed reactions among users. Some expressed confusion over the need for such an activity, while others responded with humour, poking fun at the extreme premise.

Despite the detailed claims, doubts have emerged regarding the legitimacy of the event.

The organiser is vaguely identified as the “Kuala Terengganu gravediggers gang,” and attempts to reach the listed contact number have reportedly failed, as it appears to be inactive.

Given these inconsistencies, the post is widely believed to be a prank or fabricated content.

Members of the public are advised to approach such claims with caution and avoid participating in unverified events, particularly those that may pose potential risks. – April 17, 2026
