Join me at A Festival of Oddities!

I'll have all of my books and art and I'm debuting a line of stickers and prints created by my daughter Ariadne of Hallowed Hues Graphic Designs & Creations.  

She's created Monsters of Michigan- a series of cryptids and creatures from Michigan myth, legend, and lore. 

The first seven designs will be available as stickers and prints at A Festival of Oddities. 


A Festival of Oddities

Courthouse Square Museum
100 W. Lawrence Ave., Charlotte, MI

In the 1940s and 50s, there were so many Bigfoot sightings in the Charlotte area, a section of town became known as "Gorilla Swamp." Are there really sasquatch in Charlotte? And more importantly, if we throw them a party, will they come to it?

Come celebrate a very cryptidy YEAR SEVEN of The FOO with us! Presented by Scream Queen Productions and The Courthouse Square Association, admission to the grounds is free, and admission to the museum is just $5/person. Visit the Macabre Marketplace with over 100 peddlers of the peculiar, grab lunch on Food Truck Row, adopt a new familiar in our Creature Cavern, visit the Living Library to meet your favorite true crime and horror authors, climb inside a giant spaceship, tour the haunted Courthouse Square Museum and peruse exclusive exhibits, and so much more!
