Cursed: An Explanation of the Unknown
The ""CURSED"" book series is an investigation into the paranormal, the unexplained, local lore and upholds the preservation of history, culture and architectural landmarks. Many of the popular Non-Fictional Ghost/Paranormal TV shows (for entertainment purposes) have been glamorized and have producers on board that feel they ''have to"" present something paranormal to the audience and have a tenancy to add in false items to spice the story up and to mislead the viewers. The reality of the situation is 90% of the time when a ""haunted"" location is investigated nothing happens. When we visit a location we educate ourselves prior to the visit concerning the story behind the lore and take it into account and attempt to either confirm or disprove the different stories, and usually there are several different versions of the same legend.

About the author
Chris Chaos
12 books5 followersThe founder of Axis Video and Pine Barren Films. He is a filmmaker, writer, business owner, urban explorer, investigator of the odd and a connoisseur of hot wings. As the owner of Axis Video/Pine Barren Films he has produced and has been involved with some ground breaking projects in the world of music and documentaries on the east coast. Gradually he switched his focus from making films to authoring books on various hot button topics.
In the vein of paranormal and the preservation of history and lore he has created the series "Cursed: An Explanation of the Unknown" and the documentary "The Search for the Jersey Devil" along with its companion book of the same title.
For his contribution to music he produced countless music videos for many international, national and even local bands. Some can be viewed on his "Dynasty of Darkness" compilations.
Currently he is producing a humanitarian documentary on the topics of vision loss and blindness.
Concerning his horror writings many wondered what inspired him to pen the stories that he did and here is an excerpt of what he had to say: "Horror is all around us, just turn on the news or look out your window. The demons and monsters are inside of your fellow man. From the meth mom that sells her infant to a film producer of stomping videos in exchange for drugs to the parent that kills her child so they can have more time to play Farmville. Inspiration comes from those around you, turn the bad, the horrible into something good." "When I was a child I would borrow my father's movies..he thought I was watching child friendly movies but I was taking his Faces of Death video tapes and going into my room to take it all in."
For future books in the social and psychological fields he is penning, "The Decline of American Society" which deals with societal issues and will also include "THE SATANIC SELF: An Exploration into Satanism and the Power of Self" which goes into details of the various Satanic groups, Separation of Church of State, Religion and quite a few other related topics.

I found this book to be out of the normal! It was very well written and even had the pictures to go along with the story! It was very interesting as far as the findings and the locations. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the strange!
