Gruesome but True

One of our favorite self guided tours at the museum is Gruesome But True. This is John Zimkus' brain child but Assistant Curator Lynley Dunham has really gotten into the spirit of the tour and is working up a special "gruesome but true" exhibit on the second floor gallery. She has some really fun things on display - like  a salesman's sample coffin complete with drain board, a death mask attributed to Napoleon and a piece of Major Andre's coffin. 

This is all in preparation for Assistant Curator Jessica Threes' exhibit of a newly donated Disney collection from The Nightmare Before Christmas movie.  We received a donation of a complete collection of Nightmare collectibles. It's very cool.

Watch for more information on this new exhibit at the Warren County History Center, 105 S. Broadway. Opens the second week in September.
