520    "Illustrated compendium telling the stories of real-life 
       cursed objects from throughout history"--|cProvided by 
       publisher. 
520    Ocker profiles the infamous real-life items that have 
       intersected with some of the most notable events and 
       people in history-- leaving death and destruction in their
       wake. They can be found in museums, graveyards, and 
       private homes, and their bizarre stories have inspired 
       countless horror movies, reality TV shows, novels, and 
       campfire tales. From the Raggedy Ann doll that spawned the
       horror franchise The Conjuring, to the mummy rumored to 
       have sunk the Titanic and kickstarted World War I, Ocker 
       has compiled a fascinating-- and sometimes spine-chilling-
       - book. -- adapted from back cover
