Haunted Memento Mori and Mourning Objects

Long before Victorian mourning jewelry, monks kept skulls on their desks and called it meditatio mortis, a discipline meant to sharpen life rather than darken it. Let's trace that tradition from medieval rings to Queen Victoria's grief, then sit with three first person accounts of haunted memento mori objects that seem to be doing their job a little too well. Light a few candles and let's listen to some ghost stories. Afterward, hold space for those who have passed in your life and see if tonight's Message from the Spirits is for you.
