UCLA Librarian Megan Rosenbloom Is Hunting Down Books Bound in Human Skin
November 28, 2020
UCLA librarian Megan Rosenbloom has an interesting side gig: she hunts down books that have been bound with human skin. She helped create the Anthropodermic Book Project to find as many of the ghoulish texts as she can. So far, she’s identified 50 such books. “One of the things that is really creepy about actually holding a human skin book is that they look like any other antique book on the shelf,” she told Inside Edition Digital.
