Fascinating! I would have had to visit. But, I agree, she’s awful serene and peaceful and tight for a drowned woman. Thanks for this. I love this column. ❤️☠️.
Haaa!! Food court. I don’t know that podcast but it felt a little different than my usual writing. It’s fun to experiment here though and just do what you feel. Thanks for reading and for posting that little quoted bit on Notes!! How do you get that little box to put a quote in? I have tried once and I failed.
Well that's wild! I had no idea. When I was a kid in Alaska we used to go to the town dump and watch the bears. All kinds of bears pawing through the garbage, it was kind of sad and strange to me, because the dump was gross and smelled bad, but the bears were blissed out, curious, content. We didn't have anything else to watch tho, no TV and it was before the Internet. Imagine a hundred years earlier and my Grandma might have taken me to the morgue instead.
I’m a total history nerd, especially when it’s dark and morbid like this. That morgue…what a source for writing inspiration. A story in every corpse.
Thanks for reading! Glad you liked it. There were some writers of the time who used the morgue in their stories. This one popped up in my research a few times. https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/110871.Th_r_se_Raquin
Love this piece and the morbid curiosity we seldom admit to. Today, in most modern lives death is removed and sanitized.
Thank you! And thanks for taking the time to read and comment. ❤️
Please, look forward to more strange but true stories 😁

Thanks so much!
I love this piece! It’s very Grim and Mild, which is a podcast I loved. What is the modern equivalent? The food court at the mall?
If you highlight a section of text, an option to “restack with a note” automatically pops up. ♥️

I bet we would have all went. If nothing else, it was free and something to do that would make you feel something.
