#ForteanFriday Damned Desks
In this, another in our series of Objects of the Damned, we poke around in the pigeon-holes of haunted, hoodoo, and deadly desks. You know the drill: found dead at his desk with a look of stark, staring horror.

#ForteanFriday The first chapter in #TheVictorianBookoftheDead is on personifications of Death. Here we meet a Reaper-like Death Angel, who discusses, in a weirdly bureaucratic way, the persons who are to be taken.
