A middle-aged woman came unglued when a birthday cake, apparently from her dead husband, arrived at her door in Tongzhou, Beijing.

When she asked where the cake came from, the witty deliveryman replied, "It's from your husband," to which she fainted. Her son later explained that he bought it to surprise her.

The cake shop apologized for the deliveryman and compensated her 200 yuan ($29). Apparently, it was also a stormy night.
