Yea I Think I Have A Thing For Bones - Blog Posts

Gotta love churches made of human remains. Capela Dos Ossos is also beautiful, I came across it when researching different ‘bone-churches’ for a novel I was writing. They’re rather morbid but they're also incredibly fascinating.

Modern Christians are so weak. Earlier this afternoon I mentioned to my mom that I was wanting a skull tattoo and she said "oh that's disgusting and satanic. Christians don't associate with skulls."

Ok besides the fact that half of Christians wear metal depictions of a man being executed, Christians historically have always been strange and macabre. It's sort of what comes out of a religion that claims to eat the flesh and drink the blood of a God who was dead for three days.

Look at this church. Normal, right?

No. This is a church literally decorated entirely with human bones. Here's the chandelier:

It's called the Sedlec Ossuary, located in Kutna Hora, Czechia and is adorned with the bones of an estimated 40,000-70,000 people. (They weren't killed for this purpose, but were dug up from their Graves.)

Imagine taking the Eucharist here, eating Christ's body and drinking Christ's blood, while staring eye-to-empty-eye-socket at a real human skull. Horrifying.

That cross on the wall has 17 skulls. Seventeen human heads. That's metal as fuck.
