Cult of Weird was launched in 2010 by Charlie Hintz as an excuse to visit strange places, collect morbid objects, keep up with weird and offbeat news from around the world, and dig through dusty old books to unearth true stories of the bizarre, mysterious and unexplained throughout history. The Cult has since grown into a thriving community of curious minds, serving up daily oddities to over 1 million visitors annually.
Cult of Weird content has been featured by Chris Hardwick on Comedy Central’s @Midnight, National Geographic, Rue Morgue, Portals to Hell on Travel Channel, the Lore podcast, author Neil Gaiman, and even Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark.
