Whose Kids are These? Green Children of Woolpit!
Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale. This week, your curator Kara, has a tale about some oddball green kids!
Join us as we unravel the enigmatic tale of the Green Children of Woolpit from 1150 England. Picture this: two green-skinned children emerge from a wolf pit, wearing strange garments and speaking an unknown language. We explore their mysterious origins, unique dietary habits, and gradual assimilation into society. Agnes, the girl, offers an eerie account of a twilight-lit land, adding layers of intrigue to this historical curiosity. From theories of malnutrition and trauma to fantastical ideas like aliens and inner earth kingdoms, we weigh each possibility and share our thoughts on this bizarre case.
