Season 1 Episode 12
In this episode we explore the gruesome ritual of body snatching. In the 1800's when medical colleges needed cadavers to dissect, they would frequently turn to clandestine groups of men and women, frequently called restrictionists, who would provide them with fresh bodies. Usually operating under the cover of darkness. they would often dig up graves to secure the bodies. Join us as we welcome our special guest, Doug Hullet, a local historian, to learn more about this frequently used practice. Also joining us is local historian Maria Dade.
