- Artist, author, dancer Zelda Fitzgerald (1900-1948) recorded various interpretations and symbolism of fire in letters to her husband before her death in a fire at Highland Hospital. The fire at Highland Hospital was initially reported as an electrical fault, but as decades pass one nurse, Willie Mae Hall, arouses suspicion due to her admissions of arson at the hospital.

Your attention to detail is exceptional since most channels covering the same material either miss and/or omit the details you cover. That in itself makes your channel a rare gem. Keep up your unique coverage, attention to detail makes the story far more compelling than the rest.
Wow thank you so much! :) I appreciate it
The narrator was terrible---she sounds like a 10-year-old child who can barely read. Ruins the entire thing. I'm very interested in Zelda Fitzgerald's story, but I can't stand listening to this reader.
Thank you, lovely narration. Xxx
Thank you for this. Dying in a fire is such a harrowing way to go. Beyond haunting. It's also enraging that men got "the cowboy cure" while women got the yellow wallpaper punishment/treatment. Being locked up 2hile men got freedom. I used to research complex trauma and I always assumed that Zelda, like her childhood friend Tallulah, had a traumatic childhood and also likely suffered CSA.
You are so welcome
Amazing job on this video!
Her connection to fire was already intriguing to me and I did not know about the 🔥 references in her letters. Also have not seen photos of the hospital before. This was excellent.
So glad you enjoyed! Thank you.
Amazing. You narrate well, just imperfectly so I know it's not AI! Appreciate discussion of her artistic activities
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this. I thought I knew quite a bit about Zelda, but realize I had a gap of knowledge closer to the time of her tragic and horrifying death in Asheville in 1948. I also have never seen photos of the original HIghlands building nor the fire itself.
You are so welcome. Zelda is a fascinating subject.
amazing story. thanks. always loved Save Me The Waltz. It was an inspiration to go to france.
Wonderful. You are welcome.
I must have bee. 13 or 14 when I read Zelda, would you believe that I forgot the whole bio?!
I believe it! There's so much detail, it's hard to remember it all
