Gloryhole Archives

Welcome to the Gloryhole Archives

Gloryhole archives is where history gets hands-on, and anonymity is king.

What is a GloryHole?

A gloryhole is where anonymous desire meets a hole in the wall. Literally. It’s sex without names, faces or strings. Just impulse and curiosity. A mouth or a mystery. Whether you’re into the thrill of not knowing or just here to research society’s stickiest taboo, this archive has you covered.

This gloryhole category is where anonymous desire meets historical curiosity. Explore the surprisingly rich (and occasionally sticky) world of glory holes across time and culture.

I even wrote the book on the subject of Glory holes with The Hole in the Door.
