The Head
The Museum of Witchcraft in Boscastle, Cornwall, houses the world's largest collection of witchcraft-related artefacts and regalia. The museum has been located in Boscastle for over forty years. A fitting location for a museum of witchcraft, being very near the Minster church, spooky little church in a small valley, with a witch's grave just outside the graveyard.
Inside the museum is the skull of a man. You are asked to smile and think kind thoughts of him.
The notice with The Head reads...
Please do not dislike this Skull. Once it could laugh and cry like you.
Those in authority decided to chop his head off and dump it in hot tar.
Someone placed the head in this bible box which was recovered from the rubble of a London church during the war.
The head responds to kindness and affection so spare him a kind thought or smile. You may be surprised at what a little affection can do!
So please take some time to look at The Head and smile and think him warm wishes. Click the image to enlarge.
