Welcome to this week's Link Dump!
And afterwards, join us for afternoon tea on the Strange Company HQ grounds.
The adventures of a corpse.
A particularly clumsy fraud.
A doctor murders his wife. (Personally, I doubt this case inspired "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Chantrelle was no split personality--he was just an amoral bastard.)
Images of late 19th century London.
When death appears as a dog.
When death appears as a pigeon.
In case you were wondering, people are still wasting their time trying to identify Jack the Ripper.
UFOs and a musician's disappearance.
So, who's in the market for some morbid real estate?
Some superstitions from Britain and Ireland.
A look at "Wuthering Heights," one of the worst novels ever written. (The author of this piece doesn't say that; I do.)
A look at mourning rings.
The hatter and the harpist.
Solving the mystery of the sculpture intended for JFK's grave.
The papers of two British families in India.
Night in ancient times.
The site that may be the world's oldest observatory.
The various meanings of the word "pecker."
A New England ghost hunter.
An ancient Egyptian tomb has just been discovered.
The dangers of bedsheet ghosts.
People have been worried about fake photos for quite a long time.
People have been taking cocaine for quite a long time.
Psychedelics and medieval witchcraft.
An unsolved Tennessee murder.
The monsters of Indigenous folklore.
Murder at The Swamp.
That's all for this week! See you on Monday, when we'll look at a prophetic dream story with a couple of odd twists. In the meantime, RIP John David Souther.
Completely agree about Wuthering Heights. Such an annoying novel.
ReplyDeleteSomething that struck me about the pictures of old London were the images of the manor houses, by then stuck in an urban sprawl, but at one time, in the countryside, and reduced to being shops.
