Welcome heathens welcome to the world of the weird and unexplained. I’m your host, Nicole Delacroix and together, we will be investigating stories about the weird, wonderful, unexplained, eerie, scary and down-right unbelievable. There will be tales of ghosts, murder, supernatural beings and unexplained mysteries. So, sit back, grab your favorite drink, relax and prepare to be transported to today's dark Enigma....
And on today’s Dark enigma with Halloween on the horizon and us being stuck at home, I thought we would look into some creep factor places to help bring the holiday spirit. So, with that said, we will still be playing our drinking game and as you know, the drinking game is only for those of us that are at home and have nowhere else to go tonight. The choice of libation is yours, so choose your poison accordingly… Alright, now for the game part how about every time I say museum that will be a single shot and every time I say death, that will be a double shot. Now that the business end is out of the way we can jump headfirst into today’s dark enigma… and in celebration of Halloween, my favorite holiday of all, we’re looking for some Deeply Creepy and Down Right Scary Museums of the World.
Throughout history we have sought to preserve pieces of history and the world around us through the use of museums. Here both the history of our civilization and of our natural or even unnatural world can be protected from being lost to the tides of time and studied by all who care to look at them, and museums can cover quite a wide range of fascinating wonders. It also appears that they can house their share of horrors as well, and while equally important in their own way, they manage to crawl under our skin to unsettle and disturb. Here are some of the creepiest, even sinister museums in the world, where one can be just as shocked and horrified as they are educated.
Many of the creepiest and scariest museums out there have to do with medical research, anomalies, and flat out body horror. One such place is the so-called Plastinarium, in the town of Guben, Germany. In 1977, the anatomist Gunther von Hagens developed a way to use polymers to preserve human tissue, in essence injecting them with plastic in a process he called “plastination.” To achieve this, almost all of the water is extracted from dead tissue, and the bodies, both human and animal, are submerged in acetone to remove any extraneous fatty tissue, after which they are placed in vacuum sealed vats of synthetic polymer to infuse the tissue with plastic and perpetually freeze the bodies into whatever pose or state is desired. This rather gruesome embalming process proved to be quite controversial at the time, but von Hagens spent many years perfecting the process to the point that he could immortalize the dead in all manner of incredible states.
