Icon81 Bones in bedroom

It is a house stuck in time.

A calendar hanging on the kitchen wall open to July 1978. Shoes and clothes, long out of style, spilling from plastic bags.

And in one of four upstairs bedrooms: the skeletal remains of what could be a human body, on a grungy orange blanket, surrounded by adult magazines - one a Playboy, vintage 1982.

Renee Faulkner, who has lived next to the house for seven years, said it never appeared that anyone really lived there. She said a woman stopped by a couple of times a week to take out garbage. When the grass and weeds grew too high, she said, city crews would come and mow the lawn. A light could sometimes be seen in the kitchen.
Coincidence? I think not!

I just wanted to say that finding Bones in my bedroom is not an unpleasant thought ...

Watching the video, I really expected to see Big Edie. Or little Edie.
