Summary

We've Been Nominated for a Signal Award! Would you please take a moment to vote for us? Thanks! Join us in this episode of The Box of Oddities, where we explore the peculiar and the paranormal! First, we explore the chilling tale of the Bermondsey Horror, a dark chapter in London's history that left the community trembling. What happened in the shadows of this infamous location? Next, we venture into the bizarre realm of a scientific study that sounds too strange to be true—severed arms and fishing lines take center stage. What drove researchers to undertake such an unsettling experiment, and what were they hoping to discover? As we shift gears, we uncover the ghostly presence of a 12-year-old tuberculosis victim whose spirit continues to roam the halls of an old hospital-turned-college dorm. What stories linger in the walls of this building, and why does the ghostly child refuse to rest? Finally, we delve into the lore surrounding the Amityville Horror—examining its history and the latest findings from this notorious case. What secrets lie within the walls of the Amityville house, and how have perceptions of this chilling story evolved? Prepare for a rollercoaster of oddities, spine-tingling tales, and a dash of humor as we unravel these mysteries. Tune in for a journey into the bizarre that you won't want to miss!
