Host Eric Dwinnells is back to finish telling you about
The Curse of the Pharaohs! The idea is that those
who enter a pharaoh's tomb are cursed and often die of mysterious
causes...but is there any truth to it? Tonight, he'll separate fact
from fiction and explain some of the odd things that really did
occur around the opening of King Tut's tomb and pointing out half
truths and outright lies that grew around the story.
Loyal listeners will probably guess that Eric doesn't put much
stock in the idea of a mummy actually getting up and murdering
people like in the movies. But does that mean there is no truth to
ancient Egyptian curses? What about the idea bacteria on mummies
and/or growing on tomb walls can lead to death (thus creating a
roundabout curse)? As recently as the 1990's there has been a death
attributed to just such a "curse".
We'll here what the medical establishment, Lord Carnarvon's
relatives, and noted skeptic Jams Randi have to say regarding all
this and more on tonight's Spooky A S!
