Two forays into the damp, weird soil of ghosts, curses, and the roots and cousins of American language. Ich, Kurbisgeist, an agricultural vengeance play for Hallowe'en, is written in an oolde and whheurd variant of Amer-English. The three paranormal playlets of The Secret Death of Puppets are composed in "Fraunch," English, and a Nordic-Latin homonculus language of the undead.
