The Huntarian

Anyone ever visited? I did years ago when i was at uni, but haven't been recently. Was having a discussion this morning about it and the pickled boaby scene from Chewin' The Fat, or one of those programmes, came up.

Can't recall seeing it when I was there

 

My eldest daughter went with her primary school a few years ago.

First thing she mentioned was the pickled boaby

 

I was there with a group of school kids if I remember right, some kind of display was on, I remember the kids could dress up.

Didn't see the pickled boaby but

Guess where I'm going during the October week?

Thats the best one this week!!

 

Wiz that zombies in your first pic, Bib?

 

I dunno - something properly macabre about them, though.

The Hunterian has a weird smell because of all the formaldehyde and the likes - the mutations bit is downright spooky.

But it's not all medical freakshows - they have Rembrandts and Whistlers and stuff in the Art Gallery bit.

But everyone seems to go for the pickled boabies and hands of lepers.

 

it aint called the HUNterian for nothin

 

Not bad, Bealy
