Location: Perkins Library Rare Book Room
Celebrate Halloween with the staff of the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library. We'll be dragging out some of the creepiest and most macabre items from the shadowy depths of the library's vaults. Among the many strange and gruesome items on display will be cases of glass eyeballs from our History of Medicine Collections, Renaissance-era amputating saws, horror comics from the 1950s and 1960s, centuries-old treatises on witchcraft, apparitions, the supernatural, and much, much more. This event is free and open to the living and the dead. There will be candy.
