"What I have heard from over 20 years ago is that yes the tomb has a curse and a treasure. Now if you stick an arm in a window when you pull it back out it won't be there anymore.
Now as for the treasure, well I don't remember how far out, but it is walkable or it was at the time, there is a rock, directly straight out from the front door of the tomb, under that rock is a special key for the front door of the tomb. If you can retrieve this key, it will alow you to open the front door and retireive the treasure."
Here is some of the information about the tomb that has been posted on a website called www.hamiltonparanormal.com
