On the evening of February 11, 1963, Sylvia Plath tucked her two children into bed before putting her head in the oven and taking her own life through the inhalation of natural gas.
The surname "Hughes" was repeatedly chiseled from Sylvia Plath's gravestone (as you look at the stone now, again the name Hughes has been scratched off) The stone was vandalized multiple times, and the replacement stone was also removed.
