Visit to the crypt of the Capuchins at Mala Convent
A first person account describes entering the decayed Capuchin convent at Mala with a monk guide. The narrator witnesses a darkness so heavy it chills the air and views a dim chapel where forty monks in full habit stand in arches. The scene evokes deathly calm and the eerie stillness of an ancient burial vault with the monks appearing as preserved, lifelike figures.
