Raising Hell - Bibliograrahy
This bibliography is a semi-comprehensive list of books, videos, transcripts, podcasts, and other related materials to the Cursed Media podcast Raising Hell by Jack LaRoche and Julian Feeld. You can gain access to this, as well as many other stellar miniseries, by subscribing at cursedmedia.net.
If you’re here, thank you for taking a deep interest in this subject. It’s grim, it’s tangled, and it’s also important. I hope that my research over the course of the series proves valuable to those looking to further their own, and share it with others.
Importantly, I’ll be updating this with more newspaper articles and transcripts. I truly wish I was as organized as somebody with a giant corkboard filled with pushpinned documents. Hopefully this will suffice.
