The Dress Form of Union Grove

from Heirloom — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo

In the autumn of 2019, I drove through Union Grove, Wisconsin, to settle my great-aunt Edie's estate. She was a recluse who made wedding dresses by hand, and her farmhouse attic held a single dress form — a black-lacquered, faceless mannequin with no maker's mark. I learned it was not a tool but a passenger that had followed her from a 1972 commission in a town called Stillwater. The dress form moved on its own at night. It bore the name of a bride who never married, and when I looked into its hollow chest, I saw something that should not have been there. This episode is about what we inherit when we touch the unfinished things of the dead — and what it means to carry a silence that fits you like a second skin. #DressForm #UnionGrove #Stillwater #GreatAuntEdie #WeddingDress #Mannequin #HauntedObject #SmallTownHorror #Wisconsin #Autumn #EstateSale #Attic #Silence #Unfinished #Bride #1972 #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #HeirloomHorror #FamilySecrets Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
