Bockstensmanen, a medieval person who happened to die in a bog which preserved his clothes (and more), clothes like hella comfy??

Like seriously. Comfy and warm wool clothes!

(yes this are pictures of his actual outfit, not reconstructed clothing. They were very well preserved in all except colour. The bog gave everything that yellow shade, i suspect)

His kjortel (the clothing for his upper body)

He got a mantel that resemble a poncho

It goes around the entire body! So perhaps not quite a mantel but.

A got a little hood with a fashionedble long thingy at the end

Warm that too! There is no openings for wind or anything, so like. Just pull hood over head, get warm!

Warm socks! Gotta keep em feets warm (and just like in english, the swedish words for trousers, byxor, is in plural in its normal form, just because the medieval version of trousers consisted of two separate peices like here.

Somewhere, there should be something for hos upper legs but idk were that one is)

Anyway! I do think one can tell that keeping warm was an important part of the logic behind bockstensmannens clothing. Not odd that, when he lived in Scandinavia and all…

Reconstruction in how he might have looked like in life. The musuem points out, that his skull was very smashed when found, werehas it might be a bit so so with this dolls facial similiarity with bockstensmannen in life. And his hair colour we know not, the bog will colour most hair red with enough time.

But that hairstyle! That he really had! Bockstensmannen wore like Peak Fluffy Medieval Hair Fashion in life

The entire doll wearing bockstensmannens reconstructed clothing

Bring a flashlight.
Bring an extra flashlight.
Walk the perimeter. Locate all possible exits.
Do not be deterred by barbed-wire, high walls, and locked doors. But be on the lookout for holes and tunnels leading to the building.
Wear a mask, gloves, and ideally, a complete protection suit.
Test your steps.
Have a fully charged cellphone with you in case you get trapped.
If the water is still working, leave immediately.
Never shut the doors behind you.
The old man sitting by the campfire is not real. The campfire is.
Check if the campfire is built on concrete. If not, leave.
Talk to the man if you want to find yourself.
It is advised to bring a bottle of whiskey.
Be careful not to break anything.
If you hear a woman yell ’Don’t wake the baby!’, yell back ’You don’t wake the baby!’
Avoid the man sitting in front of a trash can fire. He is real, the fire is not. It burns souls.
Do not sit in the armchair.
If a door you had opened is now closed, pray it was the wind.
Some rooms might be more chilly than others. It is normal.
If you get a message from a friend asking to hang out, do not reply.
They are always watching.
A creaking floor is a bad omen.
The sudden breaking of windows is to be ignored.
The building might not want you to leave.
If there is music playing, it’s probably the wind carrying it from someplace else.
There are cats. Many cats.
The cats can protect you.
Do not look through the windows.
Do not take any pictures with flash. Some things are better left unseen.
Leave some food for the cats.
