J.W. Ocker, bestselling author and creator of OTIS: Odd Things I've Seen, joins us to discuss his lifelong love of Halloween and the macabre, and how that passion has shaped his career documenting America's strangest stories and locations. We explore his earliest Halloween memories, what Halloween means to him personally, and how his interest in the spooky and unusual has influenced both his nonfiction oddity research and his fictional middle-grade novels. Plus, J.W. dives deep into his brand-new book, "Chasing the Headless Horseman," sharing what surprised him about the real history of Sleepy Hollow, his most memorable research experiences, and why the Headless Horseman has maintained such an iconic grip on Halloween culture for over two centuries.
