Horror Series: The Headless Nun

I totally should have started this series off as "Horror Series" and not "Legendary Creature Series." Anyways...

Hailing from the great Canadian landscape, the Headless Nun is a ghost story from Miramachi, New Brunswick. According to legend, she was a nun in the area back in the 18th Century who was decapitated... Though it was not known who had done it. Accusations have been pointed towards sailors, a run-of-the-mill murderer or even a crazed woodsman, but there's no consensus exactly who was the responsible party. Nowadays, she is said to wander the area in search for her head.

Sadly, as she has been wandering the land for a couple centuries, we have disrespected her plight by playing a TV show that not only seemed to mock her, but mock her in the worst way. The Flying Nun (1967 - 1970) was a TV show that aired on ABC that starred Sally Field as a nun whose head wear (cornette) and light build would allow her to fly.

Seriously... The Headless Nun is spending an eternity looking for her head and we actually air that show? Seems like a complete dickhole move on our part. Sally Field can fly around because of something she wears on her head, the ultimate freedom... While the Headless Nun doesn't even have the luxury of having a head.

Seriously, we deserve to be haunted.

Then again, maybe our curse is to have this series as a part of our collective memory.
