The Colorado Cannibal
The Wax Museum
~ Denver, Colorado ~
The Colorado Maneater.
"A bizarre episode in Colorado history was the cannibalism of Alfred Packer. Heavy snows immobilized a gold prospecting party in the high country. Packer, with five others, set out for a nearby Indian agency, but Packer arrived alone. Although evidence was conflicting, he was convicted of killing all five victims and eating their flesh."
Dedicated to preserving the history of Wax Arts, and the unique stories of all those involved in its development, WAXIPEDIA strives to be the number one source of information on the subject of Wax Museums and their role in the attractions and entertainment industries. Through the sharing of photographs, brochures, movies and stories we hope to enlighten, engage and entertain all who discover us.
As a resource, the WAXIPEDIA ARCHIVES was established in 2014 as a repository for physical examples and information pertaining to these educational goals. Consisting of thousands of items (ranging from century-and-a-half year old guidebooks to life-sized wax figures) the ARCHIVES are the backbone of WAXIPEDIA's mission and we hope to inspire future generations of artists, designers, historians and fans.
Anyone interested in donating items to the WAXIPEDIA ARCHIVES is encouraged to reach out to me directly at timothywrandall@gmail.com
