The Siblings of Saint Rupert Collection (Occult Artwork Edition) #9
Today it’s business as usual. Since the last Siblings collection, we have only discovered a small but important piece of information on these paintings and their esoteric symbolism. Yet, given the time of year, we thought it would be a good opportunity to archive them. Plus we’re bored of Christmas already. We have combed over…

The Convent Collection #3
Apologies for not returning to this collection sooner which we had promised. While we don’t have any further information about the Abbess, we have still been researching this tragic convent almost obsessively. After further analysis we are positively sure that the Abbess infiltrated this once traditional and peaceful convent. Furthermore we believe that the person…

The Siblings of Saint Rupert Collection (Occult Artwork Edition) #8
Today we continue to archive these gloomy paintings. As mentioned in the last collection, they were predominantly found in various buildings where the Siblings congregated. We believe that many more are in private circulation. As the research into these paintings is still in its infancy, we don’t have any more watertight information. However, as soon…

The Siblings of Saint Rupert Collection (Occult Artwork Edition) #7
These paintings are clear examples of the Siblings’ heretical nature. Using eastern orthodox symbolism, they appear to mock Jesus and his apostles. We can see deformed birds and animals, insects, goat skulls, people suffering; all symbolic of a wretched world. A world that nobody would ever want to live in. We know from previous collections…

The Siblings of Saint Rupert Collection (Occult Artwork Edition) #6
We have explored a great deal of photographs regarding this esoteric cult, yet we’re still none the wiser as to what the Siblings actually believed and what it is they wanted. In many ways we enjoy the mystery surrounding them, but our curiosity will ultimately need satisfying. Today we are going to begin looking at…

The Siblings of Saint Rupert Collection #5
Today we revisit the Siblings of Saint Rupert. We have a mixture of photographs depicting different ranks as well as some focusing on altars and ritual artefacts. You may recall that we have begun to archive these in earlier collections if you wish to seek them out. Our researchers have discovered that one of the…

Victorian Hoax Photography Collection #5 (Flying Monsters Edition Part #2)
Here is a journal account written by a landlord living in London: “The giant ghouls and monsters hung in the sky, staring down at us as if we were prey. Is this how the apocalypse begins and ends? I have seen people all over London down on their knees, reaching to the heavens and praying…

Domingo’s Haunted Puppet Show Collection #3
This is going to be the last puppet collection for a short while. We are presently sitting on top of a pile of new collections which we are hoping to put out over the next couple of weeks so you might see a slight increase in our output. We would like to say thank you…

Domingo’s Haunted Puppet Show Collection #1
Alfred Byrne’s entertainment name was Domingo. We can see him in photograph #10 with some of his creations. He performed his shows in underground theatres across the country and was popular among bohemian circles. The stories he told tended to be a mix of nihilism, gallows humour and scathing social commentary. He attacked royalty, parliament,…

The Importance of Cards During the Victorian Era Collection #8
Since starting this project, we’ve found ourselves inundated with private collectors asking for our opinion on certain objects, collectables and photographs. We are extremely grateful to those people and, resources permitting, we will try to help any which way we can. These card illustrations were sent to us after the collector noticed a likeness to…
