A grave robber, sometimes spelled as graverobber, is an individual who robs graves for a living. A rather ghoulish profession, these unscrupulous cads, dig up graves and break into tombs to steal any valuables that may have been buried with the deceased. The profession of grave robbing dates all the way back to the time of the pyramids of Egypt and is still employed today.

A couple of Welsh grave robbers broke into the Talbot Family Crypt in Llanwelly, Wales to steal from the coffin of one Lawrence Stewart Talbot.
