LAST EXIT

Travels With Death in the Garden State

Hey you: you with that perplexed look on your face standing at the edge of that cemetery over there. Come over this way, and welcome to this journey to Last Exit: Travels With Death in the Garden State.

Image

Last Exit takes a colorful, 136-page ride through the state's graveyards and cemeteries, interviews death merchants, visits some looney tombs and relates tales of what dying in NJ is all about. There are some great epitaphs, unusual interments, ghosts, famous deathstyles, forgotten cemeteries, bodies that show up in unusual places...and of course stories of vandals, vermin and graverobbers—all here for your enjoyment.

Compiled and edited by Joanne Austin and illustrated by Ryan Doan, Last Exit will surely get you where you want to go, but hopefully not in a hurry.

Secure your copy of Last Exit today! Now available in stores.

NIGHTSHADE ON THE PASSAIC

The best selling Weird NJ special issue.

The story of one man’s journey along New Jersey’s most revered and polluted river. We first approached author Matt Kent to write a feature in our magazine about his excursions on the Passaic River in his boat “Nightshade.”

When we received his manuscript, we knew right away that a full-blown Wheeler Antabanez (Matt’s pen name) version of his adventures would make a great special issue. 

Image

When we told Matt what we envisioned, we could see a glazed look start to form in his eyes, then that sly Wheeler smile come over his face. We think he had it all figured out from that very moment.

Matt has an irrepressibly intense style of narrative that will put you right there, plying the roiled waters of the Passaic in the Nightshade with him. And while navigating the canoe through polluted tributaries, industrial waste and abandoned ruins of industry, Wheeler will relate a personal story about what northern New Jersey’s legendary waterway has revealed to him, about itself and himself.
