My trailer for the first A-Z encyclopedia-style guidebook of paranormal phenomena along the Mississippi River's winding length. Presented in a convenient, cross-referenced format, these pages concern riverboats, ghost-folklore, vampires, UFO, hoodoo and Voodoo (they are different things, mostly), pirate Jean Lafitte, devil babies and grunch, haunted plantations, water-monsters, conjure-spells, blues-musician pacts with the devil, loup-garou assemblies, Bigfoot, Judas Eyes and exorcism rituals. I made the trailer entirely in horse-race camera tower, mostly on a Win98 video-production suite orginally marketed as a children's toy. It got the job done!
