On the Scars and Guitars new music show for June 2024, we kick things off with Bruce Dickinson's "Resurrection Men" from The Mandrake Project and then move into Apocalyptica's rendition of "The Call Of Ktulu," featuring Cliff Burton from their album Apocalyptica Plays Metallica, Vol. 2. Ghost brings us "The Future is a Foreign Land" from the soundtrack RITE HERE RITE NOW: ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK, followed by Simone Simons with "In Love We Rust" from Vermillion. Michael Schenker's "Mother Mary," featuring Slash and Erik Grönwall, from My Years With UFO, provides a hard-hitting edge, while Cavalera's "From the Past Comes the Storms" from Schizophrenia takes us deeper into the realm of classic extreme metal. Skid Row's live performance of "Slave To The Grind" from Live In London and White Stones' "La Ira" from Memoria Viva, led by Opeth's Martín Méndez, continue to elevate the energy. Zeal & Ardor's "Fend You Off" from GREIF and Korpiklaani's "Harhainen Höyhen" from RANKARUMPU showcase unique and powerful sounds. Athena XIX reunites with front-man Fabio Lione for "The Conscience Of Everything," The Eternal delivers "Deathlike Silence" from Skinwalker, featuring Amorphis members Jan Rechberger and Niclas Etelävuori. We then feature tracks like 96 Bitter Beings' "Tripled Manic State" from "Return to Hellview" and Arka'n Asrafokor's "Walk With Us" from Dzikkuh, blending intense metal with African traditions. Higher Power collaborates with Never Ending Game on "Stillpoint," while Shun presents "Drawing Names" from Dismantle. Qaalm's "First Light of the Last Dawn" from their EP of the same name and another live track from Bruce Dickinson, "Afterglow Of Ragnarok," continue to diversify the playlist. Curse Upon A Prayer's "Black Venus Erotica" from The Worship: Orthoprax Satanism and Eternal Drak's "Haunting Place" from Imprisoned Souls add a darker tone. Nighthämmer's "Land Of Fear," Paradise In Flames' "I Feel The Plague" from Blindness, and Maudissez's "Fracture Par Fracture" maintain the intense atmosphere. Hässlig's "Apex Predator", Ancient Entities' "Pierced by Obsidian" from Echoes of Annihilation, and Bleed From Within's single "Hands of Sin" keep the momentum going. We also have Cabal's "Sort Sommer" featuring FABRÄK, Crypt Crawler's "The Immortal Realm," and Fleshgod Apocalypse's "Bloodclock" from Opera. Obscene's "The Reaper's Blessing" from Agony & Wounds, Octoploid's "Human Amoral" from Beyond The Aeons, and The Black Dahlia Murder's "Aftermath" from Servitude provide more brutal sounds. Morgue Meat's "Lesser Key Of Solomon" from Apocalyptic Visions, Traumatomy's "Womb Of The Desecrated" from Triumph of Enslavement, and Clan dos Mortos Cicatriz's "Flores cortadas, machado na pele" from Débil continue to push the envelope. Nails' "Imposing Will" from Every Bridge Burning, "Cavalera's "Nightmares Of Delirium" from "Schizophrenia," and from Saudi Arabia, Dune bring "Insidious" adding international flair. We wrap up with Exodus' live track "Piranha" from British Disaster: The Battle of '89, Blind Guardian's revisited "The Quest For Tanelorn," Orden Ogan's "The Order Of Fear," Chris Slade's "Back With A Vengeance" from Timescape, and another live performance by Bruce Dickinson with "Abduction" from The Mandrake Project. Enjoy the show!

As horrifying as the thought is, throughout history and up until very recent times, the risk of being buried alive was far greater than most would want to contemplate. So prevalent was the risk that in the 1800s, people would have themselves buried with all sorts of items, such as poison and handguns, and one even went so far as to install a telephone in the coffin. However, sometimes these tales of horror have serendipitous and positive outcomes. We will discuss historic stories of grave robbers saving lives, fate assisting during the darkest of times, and even electrocutions bringing people back from the dead. Then, for our Plus+ Members, we will travel into the depths of the Bridgewater Triangle and consider its association with the Dover Demon and modern reports of crawler and pale-skinned entities.

Sometimes referred to as body snatchers, resurrection men stole corpses from their graves and then sold them to physicians, universities, and scientists in an effort to advance medicine in the 19th century, but mostly for financial gain.

Resurrectionist William Cunningham was actively stealing bodies from grave sites around Cincinnati from 1855 to 1871. He was well known, and he was something of a legend. He once returned to the same gravesite at which he had earlier been caught digging – after he'd bought those who had detained him a drink. He dressed the bodies he stole. And, he had a “villainous bald head.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Jess is covering the case of 1800's Scotland's BODYSNATCHERS, aka Resurrection Men. When medical schools are low on cadavers for their anatomy and dissection labs, our story's two villains - Burke and Hare take grave-robbing to the next level and begin murdering Scottish townspeople to fill the doctors' needs.

In this episode I'm joined by Suzie Lennox, where we discuss her extensive research into the practice of body snatching. She'll tell us about prevention methods, some intriguing tales and escapades of the 'resurrection men', and why she continues to be fascinated by this 'taboo' subject. TRIGGER WARNING: this episode deals with issues around death, graveyards and exhumation so be prepared!About my guest: Suzie studied History at Teesside University and completed her Master's degree in Archive Administration in 2011 before leaving the sector in 2015. She has been researching all aspects of body snatching for over fifteen years, after writing about the legal implications of the trade for her dissertation at university. Her book ‘Bodysnatchers: Digging Up The Untold Story of Britain's Resurrection Men' was published by Pen & Sword in 2016.

This episode is another Billy-sode, and it is sort of a follow up to New World Cannibalism. Join us this week as we discuss the Resurrection Men and the taboo world of body snatching. 

In this episode Jennie and Dianne are joined by special guest Suzie Lennox, an expert in the history of body snatching especially in England, Ireland, and Scotland. Suzie shares the stories of successful and unsuccessful body snatchers, why they wanted to dig up the Dead in the first place, and how cemeteries and families tried to prevent the snatching of the Dead. Take a walk with us through the ordinary extraordinary cemeteries where those who were laid to rest did not always remain in their graves.Books & other resources recommended in this episode:TheThe Diary of a Resurrectionist – This is a free book online https://t.co/XqKYAZUf7k Report on the Select Committee on Anatomy – Free online publication https://t.co/L3Dso2vS8j                                  Suzie Lennox: Bodysnatchers: Digging up the Untold Stories of Britain's Resurrection Men  https://t.co/zsOeKh1KdM WendyWendyWendy Moore: The Knife Man https://t.co/nKfQ5gUDruinjDruin1O DruinDruin Burch: Digging up the Dead https://t.co/H9lQMFW9aKLinks for Suzie Lennox:websitewebsite https://t.co/MhF4YTwitterVSpKT Twitter https://t.coInstagram/QZZ5SB730t Instagram httpFacebooks://t.co/AWIz95UcNx Facebook https://t.co/mWhZw8654b

But is he going as a father or a detective?As he leaves at dawn to drive to the windswept coast – and a small town with big secrets – he wonders whether this might be the first time in his life where the truth is the one thing he doesn’t want to find...Ian Rankin has been elected a Hawthornden Fellow, and is also a past winner of the Chandler-Fulbright Award.

It’s Episode Twenty-Five of Not for the Dinner Table!! And we’re talking all about Body Snatchers. Not the movie though. We’ve got some NFTDT news all about pilots spotting UFO’s and Sophie’s trip to the Littledean Jail, which holds a huge collection of occult and true crime memorabilia and an array of oddities. Not to be confused with Grave Robbers, Body Snatchers were all together much more macabre and in NFTDT fashion we’re scratching the surface into this creepy practice. Sophie is exploring the strange custom of Ghost brides and ghost weddings in China. Whilst Dave is looking into one of the most famous “Resurrection Men” Grandison Harris and a few facts about the Mortesafe. To finish off we have a fantastic listener’s leftovers about an abandoned hospital and a murder that took place there. If you want to send in your story email notforthedinnertable@gmail.com you can send us your weird sightings, spooky encounters or general strangeness.

RKO's latest horror movie, 'The Body Snatcher', based upon a dark legacy of crimes from another time, is proving to be Val Lewton's most challenging project yet. Seemingly determined to have his way, Lewton's boss, Jack Gross has agreed to finally give Lewton and his team an "A-List" budget. But this promise comes with a set of conditions... It isn't long before Gross's demands are dragging Lewton's possible masterpiece into exploitation territory. With the budget as a bargaining chip, will Lewton be forced to ruin his own reputation in order to get the film made? Or will a solution present itself from the most unlikely of places? To become a Co-Producer of The Secret History of Hollywood CLICK HERE CONTENT WARNING BELOW A significant part of the episode deals with the story of Burke and Hare. This was necessary to the overall story, as the film this episode deals with, 'The Body Snatcher', was based heavily upon their crimes. It was very important to me to tell their story honestly, as there has been an unfortunate tendency in recent years to paint Burke and Hare as a pair of somewhat goofy miscreants, instead of the abominable creatures they were in reality. As such, there are certain details that some may find upsetting or disturbing. Burke and Hare murdered many people of all ages. The details of these crimes are more than likely unsuitable for younger ears, and may also cause distress to you, the listener. If you feel that you would like to skip over this section, then it begins at 52:12 and runs through to 1:36:00. The episode also contains a brief history of the science of anatomy, which is not particularly graphic, but it still might not be something you feel easy listening to. It begins at 29:51, and runs to the end of the Burke and Hare section at 1:36:00

Two stories: one that ends, and one that starts, in a grave. In the first, “Resurrection Men,” a pair of body snatchers dig up a corpse. In the second, “The Spiraling Grave,” a woman wakes up in a coffin.

Boston, today a city rich with world-class hospitals and medical schools, has a long history of medical innovation. This week, we take a look at the characters who laid the foundation for these advancements - Resurrection Men. What founding father was a member of a secret grave robbing club? What were the steps to pulling off the perfect heist? Tune in this week to find out! Show notes: http://HUBhistory.com/030

In this episode of Songs From The Howling Sea, we hear the story of the Resurrection Men. By the 1800's the medical world was in crisis. A reduction in executions meant a reduction in cadavers on which to expand their knowledge. But when there is a need there is always someone willing to meet it. Enter the Resurrection Men. The song 'Resurrection Man' inspired by this tale and included in this episode, is available for free download at www.songsfromthehowlingsea.com.     

Listen to this article: There have been many points in history in which it was difficult, if not impossible, for a doctor to study human anatomy. During the 18th and 19th centuries, it became common for bodies to be stolen from their graves. In 1752, the Murder Act was passed in the UK allowing for […]

Doctors and medical students have not always been respected, rigorously- trained, caring professionals.  In fact, around the time of the Revolutionary War and thereafter, they were regarded with suspicion and even horror.  Not only was the job itself grisly and failure- prone, but for students, dissection was nearly impossible due to strong cultural biases against desecrating bodies.  Forced to find a way to learn about the human body, medical students hired-- or become-- Resurrection Men, or grave robbers.  Their callous indifference to mourning families offended the sensibilities of the citizens of New York City. Finally, after a particularly gruesome encounter in April 1788, New Yorkers decided they would no longer stand for constant grave- robbing. A two- day riot ensued, in which both medical schools in New York City were attacked, anatomical models were destroyed, and an estimated 20 people were killed.How has medical education changed over time?  This episode of Sawbones, Kathleen's favorite medical history podcast, tells you everything you need to know.Check out the Facebook page for lots of good images!

Before being a doctor or surgeon was a respected trade, the need for cadavers for study created The Resurrection Men.

Today’s Chronicle is the story of a young man with a particular talent for hacking high security systems… and a pair of shadowy men who wish to acquire his services. Here is a link to Episode 42. If you would like to reach me, my email is zendane [at] evereader [dot] org.

For centuries, students of medicine have dissected the dead. But the idea of wilfully donating one's body to medicine is somewhat new. People donating their bodies to science has sufficed the medical demand for cadavers until recently. Now the burgeoning demand for bodies and body parts has created a strange new industry in America.
