'Death Dollhouse' that reproduces the actual murder scene in a terrifyingly clear manner
by
There is a 'dollhouse ' where many murder scenes are reproduced, such as a corpse thrown into a bathtub, a corpse with a knife stabbed in the chest, and a corpse with a neck hung from the ceiling. What is reproduced in the dollhouse that children would normally use for doll play is the actual murder case. The dollhouse, which is part of what is called 'Nutshell Research, ' is used to foster the eyes of criminal investigations.

A dollhouse with a high degree of reality.
Generally, dollhouses are used by children to play with dolls, but if you take a closer look inside this dollhouse, you can see that the neck of the doll is hung from the ceiling. Specifications that are clearly not for children.
In another dollhouse ...
A man is lying behind an open door.
It's only clear that 'something bad has happened' in these dollhouses. A woman who seems to have committed suicide ...
A woman who falls to the floor.
A woman with a knife stuck in her body. However, it is not clear why the doll is in this state.
These dollhouses are part of what is called the 'Unexplained Infernal Nutshell Study'. 19 dollhouses were created by a woman named Frances Glessner Lee.
Lee's dollhouse is on display at
In one bedroom ...
A doll with a black face is lying behind the bathtub and chair.
A devastated room ...
A bed for a burnt baby.
Lee's diorama has been used by law enforcement agencies for many years as one of the trainings to improve analytical skills.
The dollhouse, called a 'three-room dwelling,' reproduces the entire floor plan of the room.
There is a large porch in the garden ...
A milk courier has a bottle of milk in front of the front door.
In a dreamlike house that can be said to have realized the American dream ...
A bloody man was lying under the bed.
Nora Atkinson, a curator at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, said that when he first saw this diorama, he observed the diorama for hours and took many pictures. That's because the diorama was in a situation that didn't make sense.
There is a blood clot in the bedroom where the baby was sleeping, but this clot is concentrated on only one point, and the blood stains do not appear to continue anywhere else. In other words, it looks as if someone was killed while sitting in this place.
There are blood stains on the wall with the crib. If you look closely, you can see that the cartridge case has fallen on the floor.
On the other hand, blood stains continue in the master bedroom next to the baby room ...
At the destination of blood stains, a man is covered in blood and collapses. The man is lying on the bed cover and his whole body is covered with blood. And there is a lot of blood on the bed, but the blood stains between the man and the bed are cut off.
The woman lying in bed is also bloody and lying down. Such a bloodstain in the red nail polish
The kitchen whisk is made of bracelet decorations, and you can see that the diorama was made using familiar items.
The dollhouse is lit in a way that recreates that time, and a flashlight is essential for exploration. There is a mountain of evidence that cannot be found without a flashlight.
The diorama that was used for training of the American Scientific Investigation Team (CSI) seems to have not been answered because it is a 'training tool'.
'The point of studying nutshells is not to solve the case,' says Erin Bush, who studies history and art history. Nutshell research is about creating 'eyes' that notice seemingly insignificant, but in fact important evidence.
The kitchen diorama recreates what happened to Robin Burns in the spring of 1944.
When Robin's husband, Fred, came home and looked into the kitchen through the window, he found his wife lying on the floor.
Doors and windows are locked from the inside ...
When the arriving police kicked in the door, apparently Robin was in the process of preparing dinner. The pie is about to be taken out of the oven ...
Potatoes in the kitchen sink. Observers may think that there is no possibility of suicide because no one should try to commit suicide in the middle of cooking.
But if you look at the details, you can see that the stove made in the 1940s is open to gas.
Since it is a kitchen, there are many weapons. A club ...
iron
A knife is on the cloth folded on the chair. And if you look closer, you can see that newspapers are packed between the kitchen doors. At one point I thought that there was no possibility of suicide, but the fact that the gas valve is open and the door is sealed raises the possibility of suicide again. The training to create such 'eyes of investigation' was a big difference from the method of criminal investigation based on intuition.
Lee was born in a wealthy family who runs a company that manufactures farm equipment. His father was a furniture collector, installed furniture in his house, and even wrote a book about furniture.
As he grew up, he went on to forensic medicine at Harvard University and became the first female police chief in the United States. A talented artist, Lee used the dollhouse to pave the way for police officers to operate with evidence rather than intuition.
Lee had two sides: a philanthropic woman born to a wealthy family and a police chief. It can be said that the nutshell research was born by combining these two aspects.
Criminal investigations at dollhouses are possible from the following website.
