Even though historians all agree that Maria Monk's claims are
false, the book is still interesting to read. Maria Monk may have
been a 19th century nun who had several sexual liaisons, while in
the convent. She or a ghostwriter wrote Awful Disclosures about
these experiences. Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk, or, The Hidden
Secrets of a Nun's Life in a Convent Exposed was published in 1836.
She claimed that Sisters of Charity of a Montreal convent were
forced to have sex with the priests from the seminary next door.
She said there was a secret tunnel connecting the two. If a baby
resulted, it was baptized and then strangled and put in a lime pit
in the basement.
