Mystery- The Haunted Town Of St. Nazianz, WI St. Nazians was founded by a priest who wholeheartedly believed to helped cursed the town. Over the years, the town has been hit with natural disasters and unexplained phenomena. Father Ambrose Oschwald was fled to Wisconsin in 1854 from religious persecution. The Roman Catholic Church had suspended him from his duties due to “mystical, prophetic, and heretical works.” Already, the scary history of the town is starting to make sense! Oddly enough, the congregation followed him. Once they got to Wisconsin, a “divine white heifer” lead them to the site of his new home which would become St. Nazianz. The community actually thrived. They titled themselves “The Association” and created an entirely functional society. Tragically, Father Oschwald became sick in 1873. Anton Still, a loyal follower, stayed with Father Osc...

Today 106 years ago, on October 12, 1915, British nurse Edith Cavell was executed in Brussels by German authorities for helping some 200 Allied POWs escape to the Netherlands, sparking international outcry.

Edith Louisa Cavell was born on December 4, 1865 into a religious and affluent English family near Norwich. When her father contracted a serious illness she cared for him, leading her to become a nurse after his recovery. Cavell worked all over England before being recruited to train other nurses in Brussels, Belgium, in 1907.

In August 1914, Belgium was invaded by Germany, who occupied their capital Brussels on August 20, and Cavell's hospital was taken over by the Red Cross. Beginning in November 1914, while tending to wounded soldiers of all nationalities, Cavell began assisting British, French and Belgian POWs with escaping to the neutral Netherlands.

As a British nurse in Brussels, some believe Cavell became a British Secret Intelligence Service agent, and was part of a network of people with the goal of helping Allied POWs escape the occupied Belgium. Apart from overhearing and reporting German conversations at the hospital, Cavell sheltered Allied POWs and others and gave them money so they could reach the Dutch border.

In June 1915, a German agent infiltrated the network, leading to the arrest of Edith Cavell on August 3, 1915. Cavell admitted to helping 60 British, 15 French and over 100 French and Belgian men of military age to escape Belgium.

Cavell was put in prison for 10 weeks before being sentenced to death for war treason. The British government protested the sentence but could do nothing to save her.

At 7 AM on October 12, 1915, Edith Cavell was executed by a German firing squad and her body was buried next to her prison.
