"not just a hugely entertaining travel memoir or a delightfully
dire catalogue of horrors; it's first and foremost an insightful,
personal exploration of humankind's global fascination with the
monstrous." -Lisa Morton, author of Trick or Treat: A History of
Halloween Inspired by a fascination with fear culture, writer Chris
Kullstroem left her job and home to experience firsthand some of
the world's most legendary scare shows. Under the guidance of
locals, she saw it all: attractions like the Day of the Dead, the
haunts of New Zealand, and even the mythical Krampus brought to
life in the streets of Austria. Each eerie enactment evokes a sense
of wonder, demonstrating powerful emotions that transcend language
and culture to reveal a connection we all share. Chris Kullstroem
is a lifelong Halloween, horror, and dark tourism enthusiast. She
holds seminars on how scare venues blend history, theater, and
social interaction, and she enjoys exploring what these shows can
teach us about our society and the people around us. Kullstroem
worked as a traveling correspondent on the radio show Paranormal
Talk and received her master's degree in philosophy from the
University of Illinois at Springfield. She is also a
Couchsurfing.com enthusiast!
