@YorkshireMuseum We love this idea. Our creepiest museum artifact is an early 20th century wicker coffin. When a recently deceased body was found, these coffins would be used to move it. Plus if the person wasn't quite deceased, they could still get air through the wicker. #Creepiestobject

For today’s “Curiosities with the Curator”

We thought we’d celebrate Holy Week by showcasing this brochure from the Lake Wales Passion Play. The Passion Play depicted they last day’s of Jesus’ life. Many residents remember the play passionately.
