Sedlec Ossuary

Thought this was pretty interesting! I'd have visited it when I was in the Czech Republic a couple years ago had I know about the place...

It was a focal point in an excellent book (fiction) called The Dark Angel by John Connolly. It is the latest in the Charlie Parker series and is outstanding if you like suspense, shooting, blowing shit up, kind of books. The entire series is really outstanding for the suspense/mystery type if you're interested. I remember googling the Sedlec Assuary after reading this.

something i guess you kinda gotta see

Mostly from the monks and priests. Personally, I think I'll stick w/dirt nap or sprinkled ashes. Maybe a tasteful Candelabra in humerus or perhaps a cranium sconce (I don't think so). Still not as creepy as Shawn's rusty spoon.

There's something you don't see everyday.
