this is my grave robber’s guide to success if I was a body snatcher in the 19th century where would I go the city of Colchester is only 1 hour from London and it is the oldest city in the UK with a dark history of sieges and massacres plus it is a healthy population of successful silk Merchants ripe for the picking so we’ basically hit the jackpot and we’re here to scope at the graveyards before nightfall but keep quiet okay we don’t want to raise suspicion first on the list is St Helens this Chapel has been here since the 3rd century and where 30,000 ancient Roman citizens were massacred however they’re probably pass their cell by date now unfortunately but St Mary’s is perfect it’s very popular with a Victorian bereaved and the folks around here aren’t suspicious at all in London MERS hang around for at least 3 days waiting for decomposition to Ward me off St Martin’s Church yard is another Victorian Hots spot for the wealthier residents and their large tombs are just waiting to be robbed but St runald’s is our jackpot it’s tucked away on a quiet street so no one will hear us digging the reason it’s so high above street level is because burials are stacked on top of each other meaning we could be looking at some two for one deals listen the life of a 19th century grave robber is not a pretty business but doctors desperately need bodies to autopsy so don’t hate the player hate the game

Ha ha ha!! i laughed so loud on this. Thank you.
Thanks for the pointers 😂jk
St Helen's has been here from the 3rd century….say what 😳!! Holy crap that's old even by British standards.
So. Why would a modern doctor need a Victorian corpse? Or is this a parody of 19th century grave robbers? Thanks!
