Background

Gravedigger is a gravedigger in England.

During the events of The Vault of Horror (1973) played by Arthur Mullard

Tom and Jerry go to the cemetery and meet up with the Gravedigger and they agree to pay him after he digs up Maitland's body. As the Gravedigger continues to dig, Tom thinks he hears a cough. The Gravedigger finishes digging and as he opens the coffin door, Maitland jumps up and screams Alex causing Tom and Jerry to run away out of the cemetery and into the street. The Gravedigger calls to Tom and Jerry and tells them he is sorry about the head as he shows them the body of the now really dead Maitland which has a shovel wound in the forehead.
