Corrected entry: The girl dies from what is called skin suffocation. Skin suffocation is in reality a myth.
Correction: Technically, it's not. Toxins/bacteria, etc. can enter the body through the pores on the skin and be sufficient enough to cause death or serious injury. It's possible that this is what actually happened with the fabled gypsy dancer that this story refers to, and overtime, the "skin suffocation" term was coined.
