EXORCISTA: Horror & True Crime with Victoria UnikelThe Mercy Brown Vampire Panic – When New England Burned Hearts for Medicine (EXORCISTA)In 1892, Rhode Island townspeople opened Mercy Brown's grave, found fresh blood in her corpse, and performed a ritual straight from medieval folklore. They burned her heart and made her tuberculosis-stricken brother drink the ashes. This wasn't superstition—it was their only hope against a disease killing entire families.Victoria Unikel examines the desperation that drove educated Americans to vampire remedies, the science that explains preserved winter corpses, and why Mercy became "New England's Last Vampire."

These 5 chapters are individual eulogies which serve as a funeral for a dead city (Jerusalem) and a dead nation (Israel). This week, we read about the suffering depicted in chapter 1 which was a result of Israel's habitual sin and the threads of mercy which are spread throughout the book. 2025-05-1326 min
