Po svete existujú tisícky múzeí, ktoré majú vo svojich expozíciách či v depozitároch milióny predmetov. Je jasné, že drvivá väčšina z nich je fascinujúcich či zaujímavých. No nájdu sa medzi nimi aj také, ktoré by sme neoznačili nijak inak ako prívlastkom bizarné či dokonca strašidelné.
Ako informuje portál Mashable, Yorkshirské múzeum odštartovalo na Twitteri kurátorskú výzvu a nabáda aj ďalšie múzeá, aby pridávali fotografie predmetov vo svojich zbierkach, ktoré sú strašidelné, zvláštne, bizarné či divné a označili ich hashatgom #CreepiestObject. Aby sa na výzve podieľalo aj samotné múzeum, ako prvé uverejnili vlasy z hrobu rímskej ženy z približne z 3. až 4. storočia.
Nechutná guča vlasov

Najdivnejšia hračka
Bringin’ our A-game for this #CURATORBATTLE! What is it? Just a CURSED CHILDREN’S TOY that we found inside the walls of a 155-year-old mansion. We call it “Wheelie” – and it MOVES ON ITS OWN: Staff put it in one place and find it in another spot later on…. #Creepiestobject pic.twitter.com/FQzMzacr8a

Live from the Toy Museum of Penshurst Place, we present the Drinking Bear. Feed it a 2 pence piece and it’ll pretend to drink from its cup as it stares into your soul. #CuratorBattle #CreepiestObject pic.twitter.com/ohNl2974UJ

Just had a thought. Not our object but we did once borrow a silver snuffbox from @MuseumsUniStA that is said to contain the pubic hair of one of George IV’s mistresses.
Yes that’s right a pubic hair snuffbox.#CURATORBATTLE #creepiestobject pic.twitter.com/ePGY8eJ22R
