Re: The Charred Corpse of Rev. Bill Larson

That's really interesting and I've never heard about it before. I've just read-up further, and there were all manner of alleged cover-ups regarding the event. The 70's were not a great time to be a gay person in. Some images to add to this thread -

1. Bill Larson - made a rev posthumously
2. The building today
3. After the fire
4. Interior and punters in colour
5. Interior after the fire
