Ghost children. No other paranormal entity is more desperately tragic and heart-rending to our emotions—or more capable of freezing the blood in our veins—than that of a child haunting the site of their death. Saddest of all are the ghosts of children who had been abandoned by their parents and society, left into the cold, indifferent care of orphanages and foundling hospitals from ages past. At their best, such places throughout history were comfortable and clean, where the children were given simple education, trained for future work, and properly fed. At their worst, orphanages were their own circle of Hell. This episode of Hist-eerie—the second in a three-part series—explores the innocent children who were condemned in life by society's most callous doctrines...and whose ghosts condemn us after their deaths.
