The Wild World of Witchcraft – LIVE!
Are witches old ladies who live in candy houses and eat children? Are they naked maidens dancing in a circle and celebrating the moon? Are they riding broomsticks to a black mass where they’ll worship Satan, or being dragged to a gallows where they’ll be hung after false accusations? Join bestselling author Grady Hendrix to celebrate his latest book, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls, by taking a wild flight into the blackest night as we investigate the world of witchcraft in books and movies and witness an army of broomstick-brandishing, curse-hurling, baby-eating, world-renouncing, unkillable, unstoppable, unbeatable witches!
This event will happen at Radio Room (28 Liberty Lane). Doors open at 5PM, event begins at 6PM. Your ticket includes a copy of the book.
A brand-new horror novel from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Sell a Haunted House and The Final Girl Support Group. Set in Florida in the 1970s, Grady Hendrix’s newest novel follows five young women in a home for unwed mothers who find a guide to witchcraft.
“There’s spells, there’s witches, and then there’s the magic Grady Hendrix conjures up in this amazing novel.” – Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of I Was a Teenage Slasher
“Grady Hendrix again brings to life a fully realized ensemble of characters who you’ll cry with and root for while deftly molding the historical novel, the supernatural, and gritty, all-too real life horrors into a morally complex and genuinely haunting and moving tale. I couldn’t put it down once I started.” – Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie and The Cabin at the End of the World
“Grady Hendrix’s Witchcraft for Wayward Girls will delight fans new and old with his convincing rendering of characters juggling pregnancy and magic, childhood and adulthood, helplessness and power – and of course good and evil. Another nail-biter not to be missed!” – Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory
