Also includes a curated collection of vintage short stories that showcase the savage specter of Man-Eating Plants!

Journalist & Author
I'm a journalist dedicated to preserving America's forgotten stories of the strange. My work isn't about debunking or blindly believing — it's about presenting the facts as I find them, with an objective eye and a whimsical nod to the magic that human nature craves. Every legend I uncover is tied to real people, real places, and real history.
