CHF welcomes you to Night Vale. This fictional spooky desert town in the American Southwest is a hit podcast created by Jeffrey Cranor and Joseph Fink, and the location of their latest novel The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your Home. Join Cranor, Fink, and Mara Wilson (voice of the Faceless Old Woman) for an immersive guide into a world where ghosts, angels, and aliens roam the streets, and of course, a faceless old woman who lives secretly in your home. This event includes a special reading by Mara Wilson and a book signing with Wilson, Cranor, and Fink following the program.
