RE: Did that actually happen?

I can certainly see people dying of fright, though I'm not sure whether that requires an existing condition to happen (blood clot ready to dislodge, artery about to bust, etc.).

I know too that laboratory animals can be given anaphylaxis by being exposed to a placebo that imitates something that had previously given them anaphylaxis. There's probably more to that than mere suggestion, though -- the nervous system seems in general to be able to trigger allergic responses (per the famous experiments on triggering asthma, etc.).
