Haunted, cursed, and possessed objects worldwide

Some objects should never have been picked up. Annabelle. The Hope Diamond. The Spear of Destiny. A Stradivarius that vanished for two hundred years and came back haunted. Haunted, Cursed, and Possessed Objects Worldwide takes you through more than sixty cursed, possessed, and haunted artifacts from around the world, and the museums, ships, and families that held them.
Inside you'll find: Robert the Doll, Annabelle, and the dolls that are never left alone.
- The Red Mendelssohn, the crimson Stradivarius that disappeared for two centuries and is still played today
- The Hope Diamond, the Koh-i-Noor, and the jewelry that carries a curse with it
- James Dean's Little Bastard and the vehicles that seemed to collect death
- The Devil's Chair, the Hand of Glory, the Terracotta Army, and the world's most unsettling objects
- Hoaxes built on real facts, Polybius and the SS Ourang Medan, and the truth behind them

Sixty-four objects in fourteen categories: dolls, jewelry, weapons, mummies, paintings, bells, ships, and more. Each chapter tells you the object, the story, and where you can see it yourself, if you dare.
Perfect for collectors of the strange, museum-goers, and anyone who has ever wondered if the thing on the shelf is watching back.
