*phew* We've been rushed off our feet this July and early August - you've kept us so busy with tour bookings, even social media has been as quiet as the grave! We've now got some more availability into late August and September, so let us know if you want to book. As a welcome treat - we got to see one of our fave Dark Lords play in the UK. Who loves horror stuff more than us and good old Glenn Danzig? The eternal question - Is he Demon?

We often refer to this film on our Witch tour, it's often the first way many of us came to hear the name 'Witch Finder General'. A must see for anyone living in this Eastern Area or England.

Made just before his tragic death at 25, Michael Reeves' horror masterpiece Witchfinder General exposed an English countryside rife with superstition and savagery.

We've been busy writing about Black Shuck this morning (yes, yes, new tour info and brochure still coming very soon!) and came across this film! Anyone seen it?! Patrick Swayze - Black Dog? We missed this in the 90s, it's based on the British Black Dog myths apparently (with some arms dealing and American gangsters thrown in...!)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dog_(film)

Black Dog is a 1998 American action thriller film directed by Kevin Hooks and starring Patrick Swayze. The film tells the story of a trucker and ex-con who is manipulated into transporting illegal arms. The film co-stars musicians Randy Travis and Meat Loaf.

This fab exhibition has been extended - all our followers need to pop along!

We have extended Safeguards Against Witchcraft until Sunday 25 March 2018, to take account of our temporary closure for spring cleaning during the month of January.

For centuries, builders and homeowners secreted spiritual middens, such as shoes, bones and witch bottles, in walls, fireplaces and under floors in order to protect their property, their kin and themselves from the forces of witchcraft. Using some rarely displayed objects from our own collection, we are exploring the customs and traditions that guarded Cambridgeshire homes against evil intent.

This is one of 54 infant skulls which were stashed away in the former dissection room at the University of Cambridge. The earliest specimen dates from 1768. For much of the 18th and 19th centuries, executed criminals provided the main legal access to cadavers. The gallows did not produce enough bodies to meet the demands of the medical schools, however, and so anatomists enlisted the aid of body-snatchers. Because corpses were sold by the inch, infants were not very profitable. Consequently, scholars previously thought that dissection of young children was relatively uncommon. This discovery suggests otherwise. Many of the bodies pictured here were sold to anatomists by poor and desperate mothers who could not afford burial. Unlike adult cadavers which often exhibit huge incisions, all but one of these skulls show tiny cuts from knives that were used to delicately divide the skin. “We found that the anatomists were dissecting them in a completely different way because they are so special,” said Dr. Piers Mitchell, a biological anthropologist at Cambridge, who coauthored a recent study of the remains. From cradle to grave, these tiny skulls remind us that medical science owes a great debt to the poor whose bodies most often fell into the hands of anatomists in earlier periods. If you’re interested in this subject, I’ll be returning to it in future posts. You can also check out my book , which is about Victorian surgery (link below). You can find out more in the Journal of Anatomy. Photo Credit: Nick Saffell.

Happy ! Remember the genre was invented by a teenage girl — Mary Shelley, who began Frankenstein in 1816 when she was 18 years old.
