From Curiosity to Contact: My Letters with Manson

Hear a fascinating and unsettling personal story that began with curiosity and led to an unexpected exchange. Author Keven McQueen will recount how, driven by intrigue, he wrote directly to Charles Manson while he was in prison; asking if he would send one of the eerie dolls he was known to create behind bars.
What followed was a surreal exchange of letters that blurred the line between fascination and fear. Attendees will have the rare opportunity to see the actual correspondence, examine the doll that was ultimately sent, and hear firsthand how the story unfolded.
Blending true crime, psychology, and personal narrative, this presentation offers a haunting look at what happens when you reach out to one of the most infamous figures in modern history, and he writes back.
