With Halloween less than a week away, we explore some of Florida’s strangest tales of murder, monsters and mystery detailed in the newest book from horror and science fiction author and Florida history and folklore researcher Mark Muncy and illustrator Kari Schultz titled “Freaky Florida: The Wonderhouse, the Devil’s Tree, the Shaman of Philippe Park and More.”  The book follows the 2017 publication of Muncy and Schultz’s book, “Eerie Florida: Chilling Tales from the Panhandle to the Keys.”  Muncy joins us in studio for a closer look at stories detailed in the book, many of which originate from Southwest Florida.
