About the World of Lore Paperback Volume 3 Dreadful Places

Sometimes you walk into a room, a building, or even a town, and you feel it. Something seems off-an atmosphere that leaves you oddly unsettled, with a sense of lingering darkness. Join Aaron Mahnke, the host of the popular podcast Lore, as he explores some of these dreadful places and the history that haunts them. Mahnke takes us to Colorado and the palatial Stanley Hotel, where wealthy guests enjoyed views of the Rocky Mountains at the turn of the twentieth century-and where, decades later, a restless author would awaken from a nightmare, inspired to write one of the most revered horror novels of all time. Mahnke also crosses land and sea to visit frightful sites-from New Orleans to Richmond, Virginia, to the brooding, ancient castles of England-each with its own echoes of dark deeds, horrible tragedies, and shocking evil still resounding.
