Reply to comment by rudithpooh in I once tried to create a comedy routine based on the myth of Orpheus. by pnylvr

Orpheus went to the underworld to rescue his wife from death. He was allowed to take her back to the living, on the condition that he not look back at her until they were out. He worried that she wasn't following, looked back to check on her, and she disappeared back into the land of the dead.
