The Drag Queen's Mummy

from Autumn's Oddities Hosted by Autumn Grube

The story of Dorian Corey, who is featured prominently in Paris Is Burning, is an aspirational one, but she was hiding an incredibly dark secret. Beneath the sequins dresses and feather boas in her closet, a decades-long secret lay decomposing.
