Weird Dublin by Reggie Chamberlain-King

A miscellany of dark materials spanning several centuries and showing the reader the strange, the occult, the lurid and the uncanny side of Dublin.

Reggie Chamberlain-King has combed through some four centuries' worth of magazines, newspapers and books in order to assemble the most incredible cornucopia of criminal trials, medical misbeliefs and general bizarrities of human nature that happened to occur near the banks of the LiffeyIt all adds up to time well-spent wherever it is read.

-- Hubert O'Hearn

Reggie Chamberlain-King has compiled a book which is humorous, occasionally shocking, spirited and always - yes - delightful.

-- Hubert O'Hearn
Reggie Chamberlain-King quickly sped past youth and education into decrepit early adulthood, becoming, by cold hard luck, a writer, musician, and broadcaster. He makes frequent appearances on Radio Ulster’s Arts Extra and was, for four years, the cultural attaché on After Midnight with Stuart Bailie. He has written several plays, including The Ballad of Lilliburlero for BBC NI Events, and The Down Chorus, for Wireless Mystery Theatre. His work has appeared on BBC Radio 3 and Radio 4 and has been broadcast in Germany, Canada and the United States. He is a co-founder, actor, musician and continuity announcer with Wireless Mystery Theatre and author of the cult mystery series The Brittaine & Molloy Inquiry Quarterly. Weird Belfast is his first book.   For more on Reggie Chamberlain-King visit http://thestuffedowl.co.uk/ Or follow him on Twitter @Reggie_C_King
