Unveiling the Hidden Histories of the South: Welcome to the World of Jason Lykins
My Books
I’m also an urban explorer, prowling forgotten ruins and hidden corners with a tight crew of thrill-seekers. Some of my books are straight-up accounts of the abandoned places I've explored, capturing the eerie beauty and untold stories of these lost worlds. Others distill these raw adventures, fusing real grit with bold, fictional twists. Every place I write about springs from a true expedition, giving readers a front-row seat to the pulse of urban exploration while cranking up the stakes with gripping, invented turns. One standout is my book on street photography in New Orleans, where I explore solo to capture its raw, vibrant essence. My new non-fictional work on the city, now available, showcases these solitary expeditions in vivid detail. Dive into the shadows with me.
