Dr. Carl Tanzler - Deadly Obsession
Romancing the Dead
Tanzler was employed in the hospital’s tuberculosis ward, a gruesome affair at the time. Despite the best efforts of doctors, tuberculosis was far more deadly in the 1930s than it is today. Most of Tanzler’s acquaintances were patients, and most of them eventually succumbed to the disease. The mental and emotional toll this takes on one is hard to understand for those of...
Moving day is a very dangerous day
Sorry guys, but I’m going to have to take a couple of days off from updating this tumblr to move over to my new apartment. Hopefully I will have internet by tomorrow (Saturday), but it could be as late as Monday :/

Russian Sleep Experiment
Russian researchers in the late 1940’s kept five people awake for fifteen days using an experimental gas based stimulant. They were kept in a sealed environment to carefully monitor their oxygen intake so the gas didn’t kill them, since it was toxic in high concentrations. This was before closed circuit cameras so they had only microphones and 5 inch thick glass porthole sized...

L'Inconnue
In the late 1880s, the body of a 16-year-old girl was pulled from the Seine. She was apparently a suicide, as her body showed no marks of violence, but her beauty and her enigmatic smile led a Paris pathologist to order a plaster death mask of her face. In the romantic atmosphere of fin de siècle Europe the girl’s face became an ideal of feminine beauty. The protagonist of Rainer Maria...

The BC Feet Mystery
Feet, severed feet, usually lodged in shoes, are washing up on beaches in British Columbia.
For those of you who aren’t familiar, that’s a province in western Canada, north of Washington state. Now, all sorts of things wash up on shore, and it’s not news that people drown or fall off of fishing boats. But how many severed feet would you have to find before you started to ...

College Days
I got home from my last class at about 11pm, and all I wanted to do was sleep. The dorm was dark, so I crept quietly to my room, and peeked in on my roommate through his open door. He was asleep in the glow of his computer. I continued on to my room, and closed the door behind me. I stripped down to my boxers, and climbed into bed. I turned onto my side, pulled the covers up to my chin, and...

Dark Corners
In almost every building, there is one corner, one small enclosure that no one ever looks at. It’s the corner in the basement that has been blocked by a disused sofa for years; the thin space in the attic between the wall and the stacks and stacks of crates full of junk you never use, but could never throw away. The space that never sees the light of day, or any other kind of light at...

Since the 1980s, several hundred tiles have been discovered. They are generally about the size of an American license plate, but sometimes considerably larger. They contain some variation on the...

The Hands Resist Him
The painting was first displayed in a Los Angeles gallery during the early 1970s, at which point it was reviewed by the art critic at the Los Angeles Times. It was then purchased by actor John Marley, notable for his role as Jack Woltz in The Godfather.
At some point in time after Marley’s death, the painting was said to have come into the possession of a California couple, after being...

Under The Bed
I’ve been lying down for hours now. It’s 5:35AM and there’s not much I can do. You know what the worst part about my situation is? I’m in the same room as my parents. They keep looking at me, and I can’t help but look back and try not to cry or scream. Their eyes are focused on me and their mouths are wide open. There’s a strong scent of blood and I feel ...

In fact there are parents’ that will claim a good imagination is healthy,
