The “cursed jewel” is a pop cultural trope with a very complicated history–the The Hope Diamond being the most famous example. Some of these dark gems have also gone missing. Was the Florentine Diamond’s disappearance due to bad luck and greed, or did it, The Hope, and Black Orlov curse their owners into misfortune and despair?

The Superstition Mountains of Arizona have inspired many tall tales of the American Southwest, but none more intricate and longlasting the Lost Dutchman’s Mine.

Episodes, It Belongs in a Museum! Series, , , , , ,

Joined by special guest, Robert Jenner of The Fan Film Boyz podcast, this episode is something a little different.
