The instructions for breaking the hex were rather simple - all the group had to do was get Rehmeyer’s “Long Lost Friend” witchbook and burn it or get a lock of his hair and bury it six feet underground. So they killed him and tried to burn the house down…

Happy Hex Hollow Day

Ninety-seven years ago tonight, on November 27, 1928, a troubled trio set out for the home of Pennsylvania powwow doctor Nelson Rehmeyer - a folk magic healer who the boys believed had placed a curse upon them.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the Beach Creeper record release/Hulaween party with Panic Problem and The Lushpockets last night at Ottobar upstairs.

If you missed it and are interested in the new record, it should be available online within a week or so.

Opening night at the new-look The State Havre de Grace to see The Lost Boys on the big screen!

Missing some old friends here, but happy to see it back open again and still offering things that appeal to local weirdos.

Monster friends - is there a DIFFERENT Goatman, born from a DIFFERENT scientific experiment gone awry, from a DIFFERENT town of Bowie, in a DIFFERENT state beginning with the letter “M?”

Or did the author of this book just royally screw up by assigning our beloved Maryland monster to Maine??

Ottobar live at the Baltimore By Baltimore waterfront music and market festival was outstanding - great music, cool vendors, perfect weather! I was busy running the PLRLS table, but here are just a few sights and sounds.

Happy Flatwoods Monster Day - 73 years ago in Braxton County, Virginia, some folks saw a flash of light in the sky and had an encounter with the Monster.

Here are my original 1960s/1970s and modern Flatwoods Monster lanterns and wood from the tree behind which the creature allegedly emerged.
