If you’ve unintentionally buried a bad body in Graveyard Keeper 2, you can still undo your mistake by exhuming the recently-laid dead. To do this, you first need to get an Exhumation Certificate from Januarius, the village chief and tavern keeper, for 5 Silver and 50 Copper. Once that’s done, go back to graveyard, dismantle any decorations built over the grave you’ve dug, then exhume the body from the menu that appears.
Exhuming corpses in Graveyard Keeper 2 lets you maintain your graveyard’s quality. Doing this also lets you gather up any useful materials from bodies you buried earlier in the game.
How to Dig Up Corpses in Graveyard Keeper 2
Exhumation Certificates are all you really need before you can dig up bodies in your graveyard. To get one, go to the tavern in the middle of town, then trade with Januarius. In my experience, he sells only 1 Exhumation Certificate per day, and his stock refreshes every day, so think carefully before you use one.
After you get a certificate, all that’s left to do is go to the grave of the body you want to remove, get rid of any decorations (crosses and fences) on it, then exhume the corpse. You need 1 Exhumation Certificate for every corpse you dig up — if you want to remove more, you’ll need to buy another one.
Why Exhume Corpses in Graveyard Keeper?
Apart from redoing your graveyard’s layout, exhuming corpses has the following benefits:
- You can conduct autopsies on corpses again after you dig them up
- Removing a bad corpse can significantly increase the quality of your graveyard
Conducting Autopsies in Graveyard Keeper 2 lets you gather materials that are useful for crafting, such as Blood, Fat, and Bones. Later, you’ll be able to extract more complex organs like hearts and brains for totally ethical necromancy.
Your graveyard’s quality dictates how much money you get for every sermon you perform every week on Wrath day. This is also affected by the number of sermon attendees and the total Town Gratitude you have upon starting your sermon. As you progress through the tech tree, you’ll be able to unlock better headstones, fences, and other cemetery decorations, all of which will further improve your graveyard’s quality.
You can remove headstones and fences at any time without needing an Exhumation Certificate.
As a rule of thumb, you should only bury corpses if the number of red skulls they have is fewer than the number of white skulls. Removing unnecessary body parts and viscera from a corpse during autopsies will let you balance these values out. If a corpse has too many red skulls, it’s often better to just cremate them in your Morgue, assuming you’ve built a Cremator. By doing this, you’ll get Ash (and potentially, Salt) and a Burial Certificate, which you can sell for money.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
