Forget creaky floorboards and corners filled with cobwebs , thisis the material of real unnerving , creepy haunted home .
A squad of structure workers found an estimated 1,000 teeth – yep , human tooth – in the wall pit of a commercial building in Valdosta , Georgia in the US , as reported by local newspaperThe Valdosta Daily Times . They evenposted a photographof the pillage on their Facebook page for your viewing delight .
“ Somebody found the tooth fairy ’s hoard , ” one commenter joked .
Unfortunately , it look improbable that this is the tooth fairy ’s secret hideout . It ’s still unclear how or why so many teeth were place inside the wall ’s bodily cavity , but there are some big clues place around that could aid crack the case .
A phallus of the local Historical Society told theValdosta Daily Timesthat the first tenant in this hundred - older edifice was a tooth doctor by the name of Dr Clarence Whittington . An old reception from 1928 also shows that the construction was home to another dentist , Dr LG Youmans , who practise tooth descent . It also seems like no conjunction that standardised discoveries have been made at other former dentist offices in towns in the southern US , such as Greensboro and Carrolton .
In fact , just a few month ago , grand of teeth were discovered while doer were constructing a tube burrow Australia , which is now believed to haveonce been the site of a dentist .
“ We ’re trying to put teaser pieces together , so what we ’re conceive is that the dentist that was above the drug store was the Dr Youmans that we have the reception from , ” Valdosta Main Street director Ellen Hill state the Valdosta Times .
Nevertheless , the question persist , why the Scheol were medical professionals sticking dentition into rampart cavities ? It must be said that sticking teeth in gaps between wall is not currently considered standard practice for dental practitioner . Extracted dentition are considered a potentially infectious textile and are ordinarily toss away of in medical waste container .
However , in the day before biohazardous trash , it ’s likely that the dentist slipped the tooth in the wall cavity as a cheap and easy means of disposal . As freakish as it might sound , people often describe finding piles of rust razor blades in between paries cavities when they ’re doing some restoration workplace . This is because old schoolmedicine cabinet used to boast a small slotwhere people could chuck out of their old sliver vane . For some silly reason , these slots never in reality led anywhere and often used to just lead to the wall cavity behind the cabinet .
It ’s perfectly reasonable to assume that these dentists might have been teach a similar method acting of “ disposal ” for their extracted teeth – or let ’s trust so at least …
