Explore Egyptian Gothic at this fascinating talk at Margate's Santa Carla bar...
6pm
Long before Brendan Fraser dealt with the fallout from an ancient scroll, Victorian society was both terrified and obsessed with ancient Egypt.
Discover a time when wealthy elites hosted exclusive “mummy unwrapping parties,” casual tourists brought stolen human heads back as souvenirs, and magical secret cults formed in the reading rooms of the British Museum.
Join Dr. Jay Sullivan, historian and author of Egyptian Gothic, for a captivating talk that guides you through an era where history, horror, and high society spectacularly collided. Expect curses, mummy eating, and a drawer filled with mummy penises. No, really...
