The history of cursed objects -- Uncovering the hope diamond -- Fates and fortunes -- Unraveling the curse -- Closing the case on curses.
Anyone who has watched Indiana Jones knows that curses can have very real implications! However, is there such a thing today as cursed objects? This book explores some of the most well-known cursed objects from the Hope Diamond to Tutankhamun's tomb and looks to science through the use of photographs, eyewitness accounts, elaborate hoaxes, and evidence to answer whether curses are real.
