..wow, thanks for that..I imagine that cruelty an inhumane treatment was very common and everyday.. and probably practised by most or a lot of slave owners and sometimes incidents like the one described when the 'slave girl' was brushing her hair and hit a knot or something so she threw her out of the window and to her death because she gave her the small discomfort of pulling on her hair...I think the extreme of the torture and how much she enjoys it in AHS is (hopefully...) an extreme that never happened but maybe the truth is that similar things actually did....


..I've always been fascinated with 'voodoo' as well....

Well that's not concerning in the slightest.

Oh this link is good too :

http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/n...illers2/1.html

Ew this bit :

Most of the victims had been severely maimed by medical experiments. Some were even strapped to tables. One man had been surgically transformed into a woman, and a woman looked like a human crab. Her arm and leg bones had been broken and reset into odd angles, and she was kept in a small cage. Another woman's arms had been amputated and her skin was peeled off in an odd sort of spiral pattern. Author Victor Klein, also a New Orleans native, indicates that scattered around the room were pails full of body parts, organs, and severed heads. Among those who had died were males whose faces had been grotesquely disfigured.

That's a load of Bull Jesus

I thought it was quite a moooooving explanation.

[Niamh.]

Pull the udder one

I think you're steaking this too far.

[Niamh.]

I think I'm making mince meat of you

I think you're just refusing to see what's veal.

[Niamh.]

Ok we better stop now before we over run the thread with cow puns

Fair enough. That's a cud idea.

[Niamh.]

Stop it, grasshole

I thought we'd agreed to stop? But you just keep milking it.

Marie Laveau was a real person too although I don't think she had anything to do with LaLaurie in real life.

Anyone seen last nights yet?
I've got the 1080p downloaded for when I get back from uni.
Excited!

[james130]

Just started and they're using Stevie Nicks' 'Edge Of Seventeen'.
I already love this episode.

[Me. I Am Salman]

Omg I completely forgot

[james130]

Love, love, loved it! Better than the first episode.
Love that Lily Rabe's getting a meatier role.
Thought we'd seen the last of her.

I thought it was really good as well. It's always a bonus when sister Mary makes an appearance. I'd forgotten about her being in it.
