The Death Chair


In my travels I've sat in many a chair, but this one was by far the most interesting, and at the same time, the most ghasty. Located deep within the Aragonese Castle on the Italian island of Ischia is a Nun's Cemetery. It was once part of a local convent, now long abandoned. When one of its cloistered nuns would die, her lifeless body was placed on this chair, and then, well, the rest of this macabre story is here!
