Fear of the Unknown

When Jason Cohen opened Forbidden Books and Video in Dallas, he knew he would meet some strange characters, but nothing prepared him for who actually showed up. Check out Jason’s current shop Curiosities.   

Laurie Hertzel, senior editor and books editor for the Star Tribune in Minneapolis, spent a summer living in the historic former home of author, humorist, and New Yorker cartoonist James Thurber in Columbus, Ohio. The ghost made its presence known just three days after her arrival. 

Performance anthropologist Thomas Riccio accepted a strange invitation to visit Siberia and meet a powerful shaman. Or, was he? Check out Riccio’s Dead White Zombies.
