The popular online event series Skeptical Inquirer Presents returns on Thursday, February 16, at 7:00 p.m. ET for a live conversation with author Erika Engelhaupt. She’ll discuss her book Gory Details, which uncovers fascinating stories about medical treatments involving all manner of bodily fluids while exploring the concepts of disgust and magical thinking. Engelhaupt will also talk about more extreme examples of delusions of infestation, in which people with no other signs of mental illness become convinced that insects have taken over their bodies.
