I consider myself an archaeologist of the arcane, a preservationist of the bizarre, a taxidermist of dreams. Humbly, I lay before you what I have discovered travelling darker and curious byways. I have excavated the soil of Wonderland and crossed the Deadly Deserts of Oz. I have trowelled the ashes of Whitewood, Massachusetts. I have sifted through the debris of abandoned French chateaux, English manor houses, Italian villas, and Hungarian castles; risked life and limb on the streets of Gotham City; and tread carefully across Owl Creek Bridge. I have rooted through the soot of a shuttered pie shop in a forgotten London alleyway and ferreted the scoria beneath the Paris Opera House. I have mined the ruins of the Usher mansion, plundered the bedchamber of M. Valdemar, and entered into a palace where the Red Death once held sway. The relics with which I have returned are evidence—faint echoes of desecrated realms and passions long interred. May they prove the existence of what was once wrongly believed the stuff of but fevered imagination only.—Scot D. Ryersson

You Axed For It!

Due to its popularity and its critical acclaim, the current exhibition of Arcanifacts - Arcanifacts II - at the River Edge Public Library is being extended until the end of June! So scurry, scuttle, scamper, or skedaddle your way there...

...they're still waiting.
