Madame Librarian and the Disney Dead Guys
Trigger Warning: Tori says the name of Boehne Camp Hospital incorrectly throughout the story, her bad.
Tori starts off this episode with another sanatorium, this time in Evansville. Boehne Camp Hospital was a tuberculosis hospital that opened and had an open air TB camp. This hospital housed TB patients from 1908 to 1968, then still was open as an alcohol treatment facility until its’ close. Guess what is there at the present? Condos, because that’s how you get haunted condos… Moved to the Willard Library and the Gray Lady, with Tori’s inability to see anything but Ghostbusters in the story. Krysti covers some Disney dead guys in prep for her vacation to Disney World. Bill Shirley is first up and his history in Indiana. A local boy gone to Hollywood and the voice for Prince Phillip in Sleeping Beauty. Also played a part in My Fair Lady. Next up is James Baskett and his break onto the silver screen. He was involved in voicing Fats Crow in Dumbo but was front and center in Song of the South as Uncle Remus. Even as racist as it was it was the reason he earned the Honorary Academy Award. He was the first person of color that received an Oscar. Did we mention both of those actors are buried in Crown Hill?
