Victorian nightmare

Alejandro Legarda was an Obstetrician & Gynecologist and had a clinic in his house. In fact, one of his sons was born in this very clinic. Yes, the skeleton is real; Alejandro used it when he was in medical school. Pardon the title, but I couldn't help it; this clinic just reminds me of Victorian sanatoriums and asylums I see in movies • LEGARDA ANCESTRAL HOUSE #3

clinic of Dr. Alejandro Legarda at La Cocina de Tita Moning, the ancestral home of the Legarda clan

    It will be quite an eerie feeling working late into the night or wee hours of the morning with this skeleton as a companion.

    I can understand why you gave the this post the title you did. The picture is interesting, but somewhat creepy.

    This clinic seems to be a true time capsule of the era. These kinds of museums are the only certain way of time travel. So far.

    I'm glad I didn't live in those days. For many reasons!

    That is a little scary and I'm glad I didn't have to live through that era!
