Now here is a headline that just shrieks Gothic pulps:
New Species of Life Resurrected from Ancient Andean Tomb
Doesn't it suggest a story about a rogue explorer invading a cursed temple? Alas, the article focuses on the resurrection of a pre-Incan alcoholic drink. Which might have its own terrors, true:
"The flavor was very good. The aroma was very good. The alcohol was relatively good, but the effect was horrible. Just two drinks of this chicha and I had this bad headache typical of aldehydes and esters."
