Just ask Leonard Shoulders, a 33-year old New Yorker who, in a freak accident, was swallowed by a sinkhole while waiting for a bus. Shoulders tumbled 15 feet and the pit of large, red-eyed rats he fell into did little to break his fall; he left the ordeal with broken bones and injuries to his face. The physical toll, however, is nothing compared to the mental one. Shoulders’ family says he’s been “deeply traumatized” by the incident, during which rats crawled over his face and body, their filthy, cheese-flecked noses in search of warm burrows. “He didn’t want to yell,” his brother told CBS New York, “because he was afraid there were going to be rats inside his mouth.”

The original letter, written in German, is up for auction at Nate D. Sanders Auctions in Los Angeles.

“TODAY IS THE FIRST SEANCE,” says a short-haired woman in a pink cocktail dress, seconds before blissful footage of fog flowing over a lake takes over the screen while acoustic guitar music plays.
