Dorian Corey was an icon in her own right. Star of Paris is Burning and house mother of the House of Corey. She embodied fierceness and she was a wise human being. She took care of the drag community, mentoring and taking in LGBTQ+ people if they needed a place to stay.By all accounts, she was never violent, mean-spirited and there were no signs that she could ever physically harm a soul...unless, her life was in danger.She passed away in 1993. Her good friend and fellow drag queen went to Dorian’s apartment with two guys, searching for costumes for the two. What they stumbled across was not what they expected.Podcast Promo:Lady JusticeSponsors for this episode:True Crime Indie Drop-In: https://indiedropin.com/upload-directory/Phix - Use the code REVERIE for a FREE gift with any purchase at www.letsphix.comInstagram: ReverieTrueCrimeFacebook Group: Reverie True Crime PodcastPatreon: www.patreon.com/reverietruecrimeTwitter: ReverieCrimePodSOURCES:https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/a-famous-drag-queen-a-mummy-in-the-closet-and-a-baffling-mystery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorian_Corey http://www.newnownext.com/who-is-dorian-corey-pose/06/2019/ corey-is-dead-a-drag-film-star-56.html">https://www.nytimes.com/1993/08/31/obituaries/dorian-corey-is-dead-a-drag-film-star-56.html https://www.investigationdiscovery.com/crimefeed/crime-history/the-story-of-dorian-corey-drag-queen-with-mummy-in-her-closet-from-pose https://timalderman.com/2019/08/30/gay-history-a-famous-drag-queen-a-mummy-in-the-closet-and-a-baffling-mystery/ https://medium.com/harsh-light-news/the-unsolved-mystery-of-the-closet-mummy-6cc09f071541 https://dangerousminds.net/comments/dorian_corey_the_drag_queen_had_a_mummy_in_her_closet
