About

Hey there, have a bit of a love for the more grotesque side of life...or death as it may be? We here at GWU love blood and gore and things of that nature too! We can only post so much though, and your submissions would be awesome additions to our blog. Hit counter

Eye care in the 1800s: Rodent Cancer
In the 19th Century, the cancer now called basal cell carcinoma was known as rodent cancer. That’s because patients with advanced cases, like this woman treated in London in the mid-1800s, looked as if their flesh had been gnawed away by rats. This photograph was published in 1867 in one of the first medical textbooks, “Rodent Cancer.” It was written by Dr. Charles Hewitt Moore (1821-1870).

Paging Doctor Frankenstein! A truly bizarre clip from a 1940 Russian film that purports to show how dead animals can be revived.  I suspect that at least part of it is faked - that dog’s head - eek!  More of this film here:
