guess it must be a theatre trope, but in fact, most of the time dead people have closed eyes.

63% of the 100 studied died with eyes fully closed. There was some correlation with the anxiety levels of the dying person, especially related to guilt. I also learned that in Taoist folklore, it is said that eye open relates to a sense of guilt and 'going to hell'.

Now you know something new!
