    About the Author

    “In 1995, McGinty's fascination with ancient artifacts ignited a passion that would shape the course of his life. It all began with the trade of rare Egyptian antiquities, each piece whispering tales of a civilization long gone. However, it wasn't until 1999 that fate intervened, setting him on an extraordinary path. It was a chance encounter that led the author to acquire his first real human shrunken head —a macabre yet captivating artifact that sparked his interest in the dark practice of head shrinking in the Amazon jungles of South America. From that moment, McGinty embarked on a 25-year journey to bring this often-assumed myth...into the light."
