So, as I've been letting the BodyWorlds exhibit filter thru my subconscious, something finally dawned on me. I have such a vested interest in the forensic sciences, & usually when you see a dead person outside the context of say, a morgue or a funeral setting, it's an indicator that something is out of balance. Usually, it means the dead person was murdered or in a fatal accident - something wrong, in other words. So the BodyWorlds exhibit features a whole bunch of dead folk, & they're all out of context. And everyone alive who was wandering around seem to assume that these people must have met some horrible fate... no quiet, in-home or in-hospital deaths... everyone was speculating on what accident or intentional harm befell the plastinates to cause their deaths. I was even a little caught up in the mindset.

You are Vlad the Impaler. The man behind the legend
of Dracula. You hanged your victims, stretched
them on the rack, burned them at the stake,
boiled them alive, but mostly impaled them.
Most of your killings were politically targeted
but sometimes you killed just because you were
bored. Your "reign of terror" lasted
from 1456 to 1462. Estimated numbers of victims
vary between 30,000 and more than 100,000.
Evil Evil man. Fie on you!


Which Imfamous criminal are you?
