  <default_description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What&amp;#8217;s weird around here? That&amp;#8217;s a question Mark Moran and Mark Sceurman have enjoyed asking for years&amp;#8212;and their offbeat sense of curiosity led them to create the best-selling phenomenon, &lt;i&gt;Weird N.J.&lt;/i&gt;  But why should they stop at New Jersey when there&amp;#8217;s so much that&amp;#8217;s strange, odd, and utterly nutty all across the U.S.? So they&amp;#8217;ve expanded their universe, taken their act on the road, and found stories of weirdness in every state in the nation. The result is a travel guide of sorts, but to the kind of places voyagers will never find on their everyday maps. Instead, it&amp;#8217;s chock full of the local legends, crazy characters, cursed roads, abandoned sites, and bizarre roadside attractions. So come along and visit such unique spots as Midgetville, explore long-empty insane asylums, and go through forgotten tunnels&amp;#8212;but keep in mind that the maniacal Bunnyman just might be hiding out in one of them. Some of what&amp;#8217;s out there is disturbing, some of it's hilarious, but all of it is unforgettably&amp;#8230;weird.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>
