Willow G. Mullins specializes in folklore and the study of vernacular culture, with a particular interest in material culture, economics, tourism, museums, foodways, and death. Mullins has led numerous research projects resulting in publications on themes such as felt, domestic horror in Shirley Jackson's novels, and the implicit disciplinary boundaries in her collaborative book 'Implied Absence: Folklore Studies.' Her current research largely returns to material culture, centering on the materiality of death in an edited volume on biopolitics, environmental sustainability, and weatherlore. New projects are focusing on cultural sustainability in domestic life and tourism. Mullins actively engages in ethnological folklore-related topics, with a research summary that covers cultural representation and sustainability.
