Artifacts of Misfortune. Folklore. True-Case Hauntings. Across history, certain objects have been removed from circulation, sealed away, buried, destroyed-or displayed behind glass with warnings no one likes to explain.

Artifacts of Misfortune. Folklore. True-Case Hauntings. Across history, certain objects have been removed from circulation, sealed away, buried, destroyed-or displayed behind glass with warnings no one likes to explain. The Encyclopedia of Cursed Objects is an extensive, sober examination of those items. This is not a book of campfire stories or shock-value paranormal tales. It is a study of material folklore: the point at which human grief, fear, devotion, obsession, and belief attach themselves to physical objects-and refuse to let go. Inside, you'll find documented cases involving:Ritual objects and tools created for protection, punishment, or power Jewelry and personal items tied to promises, identity, and loss Religious artifacts whose meanings fractured over time Art, writing, and media that behave like vessels rather than records Domestic objects-mirrors, furniture, dolls, toys-where the familiar turns hostile Each entry examines:The object's origin and construction Its cultural and historical context Recorded patterns of misfortune or disturbance Eyewitness accounts and modern documentation Skeptical explanations alongside persistent anomalies What emerges is not proof of the supernatural-but something stranger: consistency. Independent owners report similar symptoms. Misfortune clusters. Objects resist disposal. Warnings appear after harm has already begun. Whether these forces are psychological, cultural, environmental, or something less easily named is left deliberately open. What matters is that the effects persist. This encyclopedia does not tell you what to believe. It shows you what repeats. And repetition, as history reminds us, is rarely accidental.
