On Oct 24th, The Tenderloin Museum's resident magician and storyteller, Christian Cagigal, returns to share his favorite stories of San Francisco's fantastic and forgotten past in The Spooky, Strange, and Magical History of San Francisco. The extravaganza tells the tales of the city’s most bizarre characters, including The Mother of Civil Rights in California who still haunts the six eucalyptus on Octavia Street, the Founder of the Church of Satan that lived in the Outer Richmond, and the surprising spots you may not know San Francisco's corpses are buried.

Now, in its second year, Christian Cagigal presents an even wilder history of our fascinating city — this time with added stories and surprises about the stranger-than-fiction characters of the most fascinating city in the world.
