Coal Region Hoodoo

Paranormal Tales from Inside the Pit

With Coal Region Hoodoo, Maxim W. Furek continues his exploration of high strangeness inside the Pennsylvania wormhole that gave birth to The Night of the Living Dead, The Blob, and The Philadelphia Experiment.
His journey takes us beyond the netherworlds of Centralia, Sheppton, Chestnut Ridge, and The Pennhurst Asylum. It looks into the eyes of demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren and the twisted souls of serial killer Gary Heidnik and con artist Richard Sharpe Shaver while exploring the preternatural secrets of Bigfoot, cryptids, Kecksburg, The Smurl Haunting, Pennsylvania Dutch Powwowing, and Roman Catholic Mysticism.
Miners claim that being trapped in the bottom of a coal mine is as close as one can ever get to being in Hell. Coal Region Hoodoo takes us even closer inside that forbidden, paranormal pit.

Entrainment

Liked the local history but could have done with less movie history, I understand it could be linked locally but at some points, a little dry.

Boring

Reads like a series of essays written by a bright but gullible middle schoolers. A lot of the tales have a very tenuous connection to the coal region and no connection to hoodoo. Pleasant narrator.
