creepy facts; albinos are a result of the lack of pigment in the body. a pig was once hanged for killing a baby. the salem witch trials are mostly due to some political disputes about the puritan church. a woman accused of being a witch was dragged out by some local men and heavily abused and then hanged. she somehow survived, and it is rumored that she actually became a witch because of that; there was a massive witch burning long ago, where ~71 victims were thrown into a pit of fire; there was an old tradition where, if your husband was being burned, you'd throw yourself into the fire as well. it was made illegal in most places, but on a small island it is still legal and practiced; king tut's parents were most likely siblings; In 1494, Europe experienced the closest thing to a real-life zombie outbreak; if you google "1444", and go to images, you'll find out about a video that was apparently viral and taken down. worst thing is, it's a video of a girl about to shoot herself in the head with a shotgun. once, on a remote island, a group of settlers settled down there. they stayed for a while, and during WW2, some people came to deliver supplies and asked if the people on the island wanted to help assist in the war. the people there declined. soon enough, the men there died until there were only 1 man and many children and women. the man, turns out, was abusive and quite a terrible person. the women on the island killed him and barely managed to escape with most of the children; a real-life cult that was influenced in the dark arts existed and probably still does. one of the horrible things it did was disfigure newborns in a very horrible way; a kid that was once thought to be a changeling was tortured and had red-hot pokers held in his face. the kid died, but the parents never got their kid back. he never was replaced with a changeling after all. In 1929, a pair of scientists at Princeton University wanted to test how the auditory nerve perceives sound. Their test subject was a heavily sedated, but alive, cat. The scientists, Ernest Wever and Charles Bray, cut out part of its brain and attached one end of a telephone wire to its auditory nerve and the other end to a receiver. A king made his subjects worship the corpse of his beloved; there's a doll that actually grows human hair and seems to be growing teeth and opening its mouth; once, in japan, a girl's torso got severed from her legs by a train. she survived and "walked" around without her legs using her arms to push herself forward. she did this for ten minutes before eventually dying. this event gave birth to the urban legend Kashima Reiko (affectionately name Teke Teke); Isla de las Muñecas or the “Island of the Dolls” is one of the most haunted places in the world. “The Devil’s Bible” exists, and it’s a contract between a monk and Satan. A "witch hunter" used a method to find witches that was quite cruel. he tortured the supposed witch until they cracked and "confessed" (although they did it to escape the torture). the "witch" would then name other "witches" and then the same process would repeat. in the end, over 300 witches were "discovered", a much bigger crowd than the original 9 witches; The Mutter Museum displays various mutations, tumors, and anomalies of human anatomy. The Vent Haven Museum houses vintage ventriloquist dummies. Museo delle Anime del Purgatorio displays documents signed by haunted souls in purgatory. 18th century doctors believed that bloodletting was necessary to “balance” one’s health.
