Description
We have heard of people cursing and casting spells in fits of anger or distress. But do these utterings really come to pass? And what would you call the song that prompts over 200 people to commit suicide? Jinxed or merely a coincidence?
Legends and out of this world incidents have proved that such unnerving and bone-chilling phenomena do exist in this very scientifically evolved world of ours, whether we like it or not, whether we believe it or not!
This book is a compilation of some of the incredibly creepy stories that have surfaced over the centuries. Tutankhamun's curse, Rasputin's utterings and stories of jinxed ships are twisted, enjoyable fast reads that will engross you from the first to the last page and leave you asking for more.
