I'm not sure specifically as there could be many 'night burial' short stories. It might be about a burial that takes place at night, perhaps with some mystery, sorrow, or cultural elements related to the time of burial.

In a 'night burial short story', the main characters could include the person who has passed away, even if not actively present in a traditional sense.
