Jim Kleefeld brings a collection of artifacts collected over the years. Hear stories of murder, mayhem, mental powers, and the macabre.
Listen to the facts about the Titanic, about the Lizzie Borden axe murders, about Doug Higley's trek into the Peruvian jungle, land of the vicious Jivaro warriors, and more. See actual shrunken heads from Peru, a 1912 English penny recovered from the ocean floor, and a rusty chain that bound the wrists of Otto Reuben, who drowned attempting an underwater escape.
The audience will see strange artifacts, learn about mentalist powers, and hear stories of unbelievable events.

Highland Square is one of Akron’s most iconic communities, hosting numerous street fairs and festivals, eclectic shopping and dining, and a vibrant night life. The extremely diverse neighborhood is home to seniors, young families, artists, educators, and students of all demographics. The Highland Square Branch Library is a reflection of this diverse neighborhood, with a standout LGBTQ collection and a rich programming schedule.
Reference assistance, computers and computer classes, WiFi, copiers, scanning, and faxing round out the services provided within the library. The full scope of community participation, however, is seen in local senior care facilities, local schools and preschools, and neighborhood festivals where Highland Square Branch Library staff plays an active role in creating experiences for participants of all ages. Visit us soon on the Square.
