Description
They're lurking in museums, graveyards, and private homes. Their often tragic and always bizarre stories have inspired countless horror movies, reality TV shows, novels, and campfire tales. They're cursed objects, and all they need to unleash a wave of misfortune is . . . you.
Many of these unfortunate items have intersected with some of the most notable events and people in history, leaving death and destruction in their wake. But never before have the true stories of these eerie oddities been compiled into a fascinating and chilling volume.

Meredith R, Reviewer
**I received and voluntarily listened to an audiobook ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.**
A quick, enjoyable read (or listen) with lots of information.
Most of what is within is fairly tame and on the surface, so if you like dark information without being creeped out, this is a good choice. Based off of the summary of this book, specifically the phrase "anyone who loves a good spine- tingling tale", I had expected there to be a little more suspense or horror to this book. Rather, it's mostly a list of objects and the curses that have supposedly befallen those who owned and/or interacted with the objects.
Even though I knew of most of the objects and information within, it's still a decent book.
Overall, it's a nice collection with some interesting tidbits in it, but it's nothing that I would classify as amazing or a must have. If you don't really know a lot about cursed objects, this might be a book for you.
