Letters from the Inquisition

There are new stories and there are old stories. We gravitate to the new ones because we think they are fresh - we think we have not heard them before. They are not a re-make of a Hollywood film or a tired gag in a sit-com re-run . We are of the belief that if a story is old, it will not be interesting, because we have heard before. To be honest, this is an old story nearly 500 years but I assure you, you have never heard it before. It has been cloistered, locked away for centuries. Part of it was literally dug-up. If you think youve heard it all, seen it all, and read it all, you will be amazed at the story in these old letters. I am not a writer; I am a researcher a digger a finder of facts and of tales, many of which were lost years ago, and most of which are completely unrelated to each other. But I am also a collector of facts, of these old stories, and every once in a while, they all fit together. I present to you 5 items from my collection on the Spanish Inquisition.
