Ichabod’s Questions

I must find this book! I have so many questions. Did the dancing plague happen? If so, what caused it? Mass hysteria? Ergot poisoning? An actual preternatural agent? What had I witnessed in the forest? Were these contained cases of the surviving plague? Simply more hysteria fed by old stories? I am for some reason reminded of a particular species of ant that often falls prey to a more particular species of fungi. The spores bewitch the ant’s mind and put its body under the power and ineffable motives of the fungus. I must find this book. -Ichabod Shaw
