"If you still love Constance Brand, for God's sake forget your hate and come to Ballville Manor as quickly as the devil can drive you. RICHARD BALLVILLE." That was all. It reached him by telegraph in that Far Western city where McGrath had resided since his return from Africa. He would have ignored it, but for the mention of Constance Brand… It was the name of one he thought dead for three years; the name of the only woman Bristol McGrath had ever loved. The Grisly Horror is the name of a pulp fiction novel by the author Robert E. Howard. Howard is famed for creating the character, 'Conan the Barbarian."

    In this book, Corey Taylor undertakes something never before attempted in the history of rock superstardom: he takes you with him as he journeys undercover through various ghostbusting groups who do their best to gather information and evidence about the existence of spirits. Some are more credible than others, and, frankly, some are completely insane, but all are observed with appropriate seriousness as Taylor attempts to better understand some of the spooky things that have happened to him in his life, especially that night at the Cold House.But that's not all, folks. Taylor once again gives you a behind-the-scenes tour of his crazy life and the many beyond-the-grave events he's encountered. (You'll be shocked how often Slipknot has been invaded by the supernatural.) Taylor also touches on his religious background and how it led him to believe in much more than the Man in the Sky.

The ancient world’s most shocking and memorable tragedy, it is the story of Thebes’s resilient hero and his royal family brought to hellish ruin by fate, manipulation of the Olympian gods, and all-too-human weakness.

    The story of one man’s efforts to authenticate a photograph of the influential King of the Delta Blues amid pushback from others. 
 
After Zeke Schein purchased the lost photograph of Robert Johnson online, he knew he held something important in his hands. But would anyone else see what he saw? One of only three or four known photos of the legendary blues guitarist, the photograph was certainly an exceptional artifact of music history. Despite official recognition of its authenticity by the estate of Robert Johnson, music historians have continued to dispute the photograph’s legitimacy. 
 
The story of Johnson’s lost photograph is also the story of Schein’s crusade to prove he’s holding a bona fide piece of music history. Much like a modern-day Don Quixote in a felt fedora, Schein is on a mission to convince others to see the truth as only he can.

Denver recounts the road that began with him dropping out of college and moving to Los Angeles to find work as a singer.Denver passionately describes his attachment to music beyond entertainment, and his desire to connect with audiences on a personal level. While he’s lax to espouse any specific causes, he works to convey his own personal feelings and opinions in a world where he feels music has evolved into a lifestyle instead of just simple entertainment.
