14 Most Haunted Objects From Around The World

4. The Women From Lemb Statue

This item dates back thousands of years and has been nicknamed the 'Goddess of Death'. It is a statue carved out of limestone and it was discovered in 1878 in Cyprus. It isn't known how it is cursed or why, but it isn't a statue that you'd want in your house because it's been known to wipe out entire families. Every family who have owned it since it's discovery have all died. The whole family, gone. The final family, the Beaverbrooks, lost the majority of their family and when the two brothers were all that remained, they decided to get rid of it. They donated it to the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh and the person who received it into the museum also died shortly after. It is hidden away, encased in glass, so that no one else can touch it and be subjected to whatever curse it possesses, however, no one at the museum will admit to it having supernatural qualities. The glass is just for its protection, you're sure...
