Today we dive into the tale of a supposedly cursed angel statue that stands watch over a family grave in Oakland Cemetery in Iowa. Years of oxidation caused this loving bronze tribute to first cry black tears, then gradually darken to a pitch darkness, inspiring rumours of evil among locals.
We explore a tale of tragedy, roadside horror, and injustice. What are the true evils of this imposing monument?
Let's get this show on the road!
