Summary

We're on our way to opening night for our live fall tour. It all kicks off in Seattle on Wednesday Night at Emerald City Comedy Club. Tickets and all location info available here! Step into the strange corridors of history, science, and the downright unsettling in this episode of The Box of Oddities. We begin with chilling first-hand accounts of modern-day psych wards—stories so bizarre you’ll wonder if they belong in a horror film rather than medical records. Then, travel to Japan, where researchers once tried to create a mouse-human hybrid (spoiler: nature was not impressed). Finally, dig into the dirt—literally—as we uncover the weird and unsettling artifacts unearthed beside the old London Hospital, where history refuses to stay buried. Equal parts creepy, hilarious, and fascinating, this episode is a perfect storm of the macabre, the curious, and the completely inexplicable. Buckle up—because reality is much stranger than fiction, and we’re handing you the shovel. #WeirdHistory #StrangeScience #OdditiesPodcast #MouseHumanHybrid #CreepyDiscoveries #PsychWardHorrors #TheBoxOfOddities Learn more about your ad choices.
