Published in 2000 and based on the kinetic sculptures of Lisa Snellings, STRANGE ATTRACTION is a carnival ride of dark fantasy and horror.

But things aren't always what they seem on this ride and surprises await all who stand in line, waiting to experience the wheel for themselves. The ride is open. Admit one. The signed limited edition includes a section of art plates of the artist's interpretations of the stories that interpreted her sculpture.
