Just have it drill downward, put some more dirt on the coffins, add another layer of coffins, and repeat!

What do they do with it now? OP's death tunnel is being filled back in with dirt and coffins, so there should be 1 coffin's worth of displaced dirt per body, the same as with current burial practices.
