Brooch, gold plaques decorated with composition of a bird, a nest with eggs ( pearls), and forget-me-nots ( enamelled in blue). Fitted with a locket back which contains a lock of hair, possibly made by Harry Emanuel of London, 1855-73. Victoria & Albert

Caught The Last Voyage of the Demeter at FrightFest. I'd heard mixed things, but it's a solid horror movie (a bit meandering in the middle). It looks beautiful, and the monstrous version of Dracula is scary. Strays from the source material, but pretty much all Dracula movies do.

Christopher Lee and Jenny Hanley. Plus big rubber bat.. Scars Of Dracula 1970

@Erin_bee @CeriHoulbrook It's still a really cool find 😄 and at least there was no nightmare fuel.

[Mirry Spraggs @MirrySpraggs]

@CeriHoulbrook @Erin_bee That's a fascinating find! Was the hair connected to anything?
