Tower Of Silence

The tower of silence.

Indian officials investigating several missing persons reports from a nearby city.

What they found was a “Tower of Silence,” or dakhma.
Zoroastrians use these sites to dispose of bodies in the open air!
While sites like these are not uncommon in certain parts of India, several peculiarities hint at something more unusual…

None of the bodies depicted in the photograph were identified. Villagers from nearby, though initially surprised at the sheer number of corpses in the dakhma, proved unable to recognize the bodies. The corpses also do not match the descriptions of the missing people.

There were no animals around except for maggots and flies. Zoroastrians rely on birds (i.e. buzzards) to dispose of the bodies, in the belief they are contributing back to the Earth. Officials found the corpses relatively untouched by any sort of animal.

There is no official count of the bodies. In fact, little work was actually accomplished at the site and, perhaps, this is why only one photograph has emerged. Officials avoided the spot – not only because they felt uneasy looking at it, but for the following, as well:

The deep pit in the center of the photograph was filled with several feet of festering blood – far more than the bodies on the outside could ever supply. The stench was so unbearable that many of the officials began to get nauseous when they first approached the dakhma.

The expedition was ended when a villager accidentally kicked a small bone into the pit, penetrating the coagulated surface of the pool. A massive burst of gas from the decomposing blood erupted from the pit, splashing those looking into it, along with the photographer.
Those caught in the explosion were immediately sent to the hospital, where they were quarantined for possible infection. They became delirious with fever, shouting about “being tainted with the blood of Ahriman” (the personification of evil in Zoroastrianism), despite never having admitted having any familiarity with the religion.

In fact, many of them had no idea what the dakhma was when they had found it. Delirium turned to insanity as many began to attack hospital staff until they were sedated. The fever eventually killed all of them.
When officials returned with HAZMAT gear the following day, the site was empty. All the bodies had been removed and, astonishingly, the pool of blood in the pit had been drained. All that remained of the incident was this photograph.

What is a 'Tower of Silence', Dakhma?

These places are real!
The Dakhma is belief to be a circular raised structure used by Zoroastrians for exposure of the dead.
The common Dakhma originally denoted any place of the dead.
The term "Tower of Silence" is a neologism attributed to Robert Murphy, who, in 1832, was a translator of the British colonial government in India.

Zoroastrian tradition considers a dead body, in addition to cut hair and nail-parings, to be unclean. Specifically, the corpse demon was believed to rush into the body and contaminate everything it came into contact with, hence the Vendidad (an ecclesiastical code "given against the demons") has rules for disposing of the dead as "safely" as possible.

To preclude the pollution of earth or fire, the bodies of the dead are placed atop a tower and so exposed to the sun and to birds of prey. Thus, "putrefaction with all its concomitant evils... is most effectually prevented."

The towers, which are fairly uniform in their construction, have an almost flat roof, with the perimeter being slightly higher than the center.

The roof is divided into three concentric rings:
The bodies of men are arranged around the outer ring, women in the second circle, and children in the innermost ring. Once the bones have been bleached by the sun and wind, which can take as long as a year, they are collected in an ossuary pit at the center of the tower, where they gradually disintegrate and the remaining material, with run-off rainwater, runs through multiple coal and sand filters before being eventually washed out to sea.





The ritual precinct may be entered only by a special class of pallbearers, called nasellars, a contraction of nasa.salar, caretaker of potential pollutants.
The earliest reference to ritual exposure comes from Herodotus, where the historiographer describes the rites to have been secret, and "vaguely" that these first occurred after the body had been dragged around by a dog or bird. Further, the Magi (a term that eventually came to signify a Zoroastrian priest but may not have meant that in Herodotus' time) practiced this quite openly, before they finally embalmed the corpse with wax and laid it in a trench.

While the discovery of ossuaries (in both eastern and western Iran) dating to 5th and 4th centuries BCE indicates that bones were isolated, that this separation occurred through ritual exposure cannot be assumed: burial mounds, where the bodies were wrapped in wax, have also been discovered. The tombs of the Achaemenid emperors at Naqsh-e Rustam and Pasargadae likewise suggest non-exposure, at least until the bones could be collected. According to legend (incorporated by Ferdowsi into his Shahnameh), Zoroaster is himself interred in a tomb at Balkh (in present-day Afghanistan).

While general exposure of the dead is attested from earliest accounts, the ritual customs surrounding that practice appear to first date to the Sassanid era (3rd -7th century CE). They are known in detail from the supplement to the Sayest ne Sayest, the two Rivayat collections, and the two Saddars. The use of towers is first attested in the 16th century.

What is the truth?

I am not so familiar with the Indian/ Iranian culture and beliefs.
But this is the first time I saw something like this.

It must be horrible to discover a place like this, but if this is what the Zoroastrians beliefs, so be it.

I do not know if they still perform this way of funeral. But they did it some years ago.
I wonder if it is legal? Such a place must be a health hazard!

But what about the story? Did it really happened?
The entire story is based on that first picture.
And with a little investigation, it was easy to see the pit was photoshopt!
And later on, I found the original picture.

The picture was the hard evidence of this story.
But the picture is fake, just like the story.

Still the picture is amazing!

The real deal about the Tower of Silence is really disturbing.

Robert The Doll

Have you played with dolls when you were young?

Did you talked to them? Shared your secrets with it?
Did they... talked back?


I want you to meet Robert, Robert the Doll!

Also known as Robert The Haunted Doll!



The legend

A wealthy family moved into Key West, Florida in 1896-1897.
Mr. and Mrs. Otto were well known to be cruel and abusive to there servants.
There youngest child, Robert Eugene (Also called Gene and born in 1900) was always watched by a certain older Behamian servant girl.

This girl was treated the worst of all servants, because Gene adored her and thought of her as a best friend.  Because of the abuse, the girl was planning revenge on the Otto family.

She stayed up late at night, secretly creating a special "present" for Gene for his 6th birthday.

The Otto family didn't know that this servant girl practised voodoo.
And this is were Robert the doll was born.

The servant girl sewed the doll by hand and adding a porciline head to it.
It was believed she has put a curse on the doll.
Filling the doll with evil relics and very tiny animal bones.

At the time, it was a very nice doll.
New, shiny, and sewn with a lot of craft work.

The next day, she gave Gene the doll with huggs and smiles, and Gene was very happy for the wonderful gift. He was after all, a playful little boy.

Gene decided to call the doll by his real name. Robert. And the name has stuck ever sense.
As time went on, the Otto's noticed something very strange and wrong with there son.

Gene was so fascinated with his new doll.
Gene would spend hours long in his room, all alone, talking to Robert.
What puzzled the Otto's even more, was that they could hear answers.
A voice that was completely different from there sons.

When Gene went to sleep in the evening, he would always awake the family with his screams of fright.
When Mr. and Mrs. Otto got to his room, they would find Gene's furniture overturned, and Gene in his bed, trembling in the center of it all. Robert, would be sitting upright at the end of Gene's bed, glaring at Gene's parents.

The little boy shouted:
"Robert did it! Robert did it! Robert did it!"

Then, things got worse.
As conflict became frequent in the house, or if Gene ever misbehaved, the little boy would always have the same person to blame.

"It was Robert," he sobbed. "Robert did it! Robert did it!"

When Gene's father died, Gene got the will of the house and he moved into his family home.
He got married and had a wife named Annette, otherwise known as Ann, and becoming a famous artist. Now just calling himself his middle name, Eugene Otto.

Eugene Otto always preferred to do his artwork alone, secluded, with Robert at his side.
Talking to it as if the doll could speak back.

Eugene's wife, Ann, never liked the doll from the first time Eugene introduced it to her.
It gave her the chills just to look at it, and she hated how obsessed her husband was with it.
It frightened her in some way.

Eventually, even though it deeply upset Eugene, Ann told her husband she was going to give Robert a room of his very own, in the attic.
Which is were he stayed for a few years.

Those years later, Eugene spoke up. He repeated over and over again. Warning his wife "how angry Robert was." Eugene even demanded that Robert have his own room. A proper room with a view. The guest room that looked out above the street. Ann disagreed greatly, but gave up the fight to please her husband.

Kids walking by Eugene's house to school always looked straight ahead.
For each day, they saw Robert leaning facedown up against the guest room window on the 3rd floor. Glowering at them, mocking them, and dancing around!

Inside the house, Eugene and Ann's marriage was slowly deteriorating. Eugene was screaming and lashing out at his wife. Smashing things and running around the house like a mad man.
And then...all of a sudden he was fine, back himself again. And he always apologized with the same statement.
"It was Robert, Ann. Robert did it!"
Ann had finally began to question her husbands sanity.

A plumber working on the house, who was allowed to take a rest in the upstairs guest room, ran screaming from the house.
He said he heard "the doll giggling and saw him scowling at him."

In the early 1970's, Eugene became ill. Instead of spending time with his wife and excepting her comfort, he locked himself all alone in the guest room.
With Robert by his side.

In 1972, Eugene died. In the guest room. Obviously, with Robert beside him.
Ann, relieved but heartbroken, quickly sold the house, and left. But not before leaving Robert behind stored buried under what seemed like a million boxes.

Several years later, another family bought the home. Shortly after moving in, the new family discovered Robert. Nearly squashed beneath the boxes. Which probably resulted in one of his broken off ears.
The couple of this new family took one look at Robert and knew that they didn't want something like this in there new lifestyle and home.
The 10 year old daughter of the family, surprisingly, liked the doll and added it to the collection of her china dolls and stuffed animals!
It didn't take long for the family to realize that was obviously something very wrong with the doll.
Like, Eugene, the little girl would wake up in the middle of night screaming a crying. She said she saw Robert running and jumping up and down around her room. Then climbing on her bed and attacking her.

To his day, after more than 30 years, this woman now in her 40's still claims "that the doll WAS alive and wanted to kill her."
Shortly after this occurrence, the family got rid of it for good and brought it to the Key West Florida Martello Museum. Now, Robert is displayed in a glass case for all visitors to see his scary face.



The museum.

Robert is still at the museum, in his little sailor suit, holding a little stuffed lion that he,  appears to be attached too. Employees always remember to introduce new recruits of the museum to Robert. Some visitors laugh at the stupidity of being afraid of a stupid doll, but many change there mind....when they see Robert's angry look starring back at them. 

Others try to take pictures of Robert in his case, and there cameras will not turn on. They replace the batteries thinking that was the solution, but the new batteries are not working either! When they leave the museum, there cameras turn on and the batteries fully charged. 

One male visitor, who didn't believe the curse was true, videotaped his entire day at the museum. When they got to the area were Robert was, the sound on the camera turned off and couldn`t be turned back on! He turned around to talk to a employee close by, and the sound on the camera was turned up all the way. Blaring in his ears.
Ann's ghost has been sighted in Eugene Otto's old house. Guarding the house in case of the return of Roberts evil spirit. A man who dose the tours of the house claims he has seen her. He says she frequently desends the staircase to the attic. Were Roberts evil form was stored for so long.

Other employees say that when they lock up for the night, they leave peppermint candy's in his case as if to bribe him to be good and not disturb anything during the night. They swear when the return in the morning the wrappers are left behind at Roberts feet.

The guest room where Eugene died is haunted too. A large bluish-green orb is seen floating throughout the room. The tour guide believes its Ann.

A pyhcic who visited the museum tells the employee's and manager that the energy of the spirit inhabiting Robert is slowly dying. Maybe she's right. Because Robert appearance is indeed becoming worn and old. As I said before, one of his ears is broken off, his face has chips and tiny holes from being moth bitten, the paint that was added to his lips and eyebrows has faded drastically, his hair is actually turning white!

What is the truth?

I had a rabbit when I was young. His name was "Arfke". His name had no meaning. But I lost my rabbit more then a hundred times. And I found the Rabbit more then a hundred times. People even called us to say they found my rabbit. So what ever happened to my rabbit he always returned. Is my doll haunted? Is there a special connection?
I left him in my parents house, and he still didn`t showed up in my house.
Was it luck I always found my rabbit back? Could be.
But I am sure YOU had a strange experience with your doll, something you couldn`t understand. Something you couldn`t explain when you were a kid.
But we were kids back then... with a loth of fantasy!

So what about Robert?

The story is so nice detailed and is amazing scary. Robert has his place in a museum and even an own website!

http://www.robertthedoll.org/

That`s not all! You can Email, Facebook and Twitter him! Isn`t that AMAZING!

No.. not really...
This is what BUST the legend.
They commercialize the hole thing! "Robert want you to come back soon!"
It is like 'the monster of Loch Ness'.
They have a legend and they make money out of it. And they milk it out till the last drip.

I don`t think if it was real, the doll would be nicely sitting in his glass cage.
Many people investigated the doll. But no one turned up with hard evidence.
So the doll is freaky as hell, and the legend is very nice. But if this thing was real, they would burn and destroy it.

Still it is possible to see Robert for yourself!

Or you can sleep in the house of Eugene, the Artist House!

Like i said, they milked it out till the last drip...

Bloody Mary

Bloody Mary...Bloody Mary...Bloody Mary...

Did you ever played the Bloody Mary game?
You go in front of the mirror, turn out all the lights and say three times... Bloody Mary. When you do it correct, she will appear in the mirror and reveals the future.

It is a very popular game played by American teenage groups for fun or a truth or dare.

Trying to reveal the truth will be hard, because there are so many versions of the story!


Version one

A Historical ritual encourage a young woman to walk up the stairs backwards while holding a candle and a hand mirror, in a complete dark house.
When they look in the mirror, they were supposed to be able to see the face of there future husband. But there was a chance that they would see a skull, or the face of the Grim Reaper, instead.
That would indicate them that they were destined to die before they got married.




Version two

In the recent "summoning" ritual, you must not look directly for Bloody Mary, but you must look at your own image in the mirror. The room must be completely dark, but you can have a candle. Say three times Bloody Mary. Then say: "I`ve got your baby!"

This modern ritual of taunting Bloody Mary regarding her baby indicates to Queen Mary I, also know as Bloody Mary, whose life was marked by a number of miscarriages or false pregnancies.

When she is summoned properly she will appears as a corpse, a witch or a ghost. She will scream at you, cursing you, strangle you. She also can steal your body or soul or drink your blood.

Version Three

In the 1600's, in a small village in England, there lived a healer in a house in the woods named Mary.

The villagers called her Bloody Mary because of her unorthodox healing methods.

But then a young girl disappeared around Mary`s house. And other children started to disappear.

All of the villagers assumed that Mary was responsible. So the villagers decide to act!

All of the villagers came up to Bloody Mary`s house.

They saw that Mary was getting younger and more beautiful.

So they thought she used the children to make her younger with witchery.

So they killed her by bleeding her to death and burning her.

In her last words, she screamed that all who say her name will be damned.

A few days later, strange things started to happen around the village.

People were found dead with pools of blood around there corpses.

The villagers believed they said her name and got killed by the ghost of Bloody Mary.

Mirrors

A particular form of divination associated with Halloween in the British Isles entailed gazing into a mirror and performing a nonverbal ritual to summon a vision of one's future betrothed. This example is from the Poems of Robert Burns, published in 1787:

Take a candle, and go alone to a looking glass; eat an apple before it, and some traditions say, you should comb your hair all the time; the face of your conjugal companion, to be, will be seen in the glass, as if peeping over your shoulder.

Another example of mirror divination, in this case accompanied by ritual chanting, appears in the fairy tale "Snow White," as told by the Brothers Grimm in 1857 (trans. by D.L. Ashliman):

She was a beautiful woman, but she was proud and arrogant, and she could not stand it if anyone might surpass her in beauty. She had a magic mirror. Every morning she stood before it, looked at herself, and said: Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?
To this the mirror answered:
You, my queen, are fairest of all.

As everyone who grew up reading "Snow White" (or watching the animated Disney version) knows, the mirror-obsessed queen was ultimately destroyed by her own vanity, and it is in this and similar cautionary tales that we see basic elements of the Bloody Mary ritual emerge.

What is the truth?

There are so many versions, so many variations!

But the important thing is, can you summon something or someone with a mirror?

Can you see another world in a mirror?

It looks more like a fairly tale... It is been used in hundreds of fantasy stories. And is so over used. Even today with horror movies like "Mirrors". Or the Bloody Mary scene in"Paranormal activity 3".

The ritual is so easy to preform... and it takes nothing to do.
Okey, it is scary when you are in complete dark, trying to summon a dead woman. And with the candle light blurring your vision. Your mind must go crazy. But the change to see the evil Bloody Mary, or your future husband is little.


Let's keep it to a fun game too scare your friends in a truth or dare game.
