We interupt your irregular programming on account of Valentine's Day

Well, Specters, it's Tell-Tale Heart Day. For those of you lucky enough to have a significant other who shares your love of the Dark Side, I'd suggest some reading of Edgar Allan Poe ("Anabell Lee" and "The Oblong Box" work well), maybe going to a screening of "The Woman in Black" (I saw it last night, EXCELLENT Gothic ghost story), or just playing a favorite vampire film at home (if it's Twilight, I hereby banish you from my blog).

Now, for those who, like me, don't have a girl/guy to spend the day with, you might consider taking a leaf out of my book and attempt to stage a kidnapping at the nearest opera house. Or, if black capes and white masks aren't your style, I found a documentery on YouTube that might point you in a helpful direction:


In closing, I thought I'd share a rariety with you all: A Death Metal love song (I know, I didn't think it was possible either!)


Happy Valentines, Specters.

Have a Scary Anti-Christmas, Hellions!

Ah, yes, "the Holiday Season". When everyone is expected to be all bright and chipper, yet the depresion and suicide rates sky rocket every time. A season loaded with cheesey decorations and ultra-annoying music. My advice to my Fellow Freaks for surviving this sappy nightmare? Twist it. Don't watch "A Christmas Carol" for the umpteenth time; how about "Black Christmas" (the original, not the remake)? Bake some Gingerbread ZOMBIES. Wear a black Santa hat, not a red one. Walk through the streets bellowing Spinal Tap's "Christmas with the Devil" to drown out those Carollers. Inject some Evil into Xmas Eve. And give that horror fan on your list some nice blood-soaked slasher flicks! Have a delightfully dark time, Fiends!

PS: I know I have yet to write about my Halloween experiences; don't worry, it's coming...

Let the Annual Turkey Bloodbath Commence!

I agree SO much with this turkey!

Happy Thanksgiving, all! Be sure to eat plenty of dead bird. And, for the love of all things evil, DO NOT go shopping on Friday! You'll just be spreading a contagious form of insanity called "Black Friday Syndrome". It's sort of like Mad Cow, but in this case you can't shoot the infected; just get the Hell out of their way or be trampled! It happens every year. My advice: just hole up in a concrete bunker, and pray for Saturday.

A day late, but oh well...

Remember, remember the Fifth of November, The Gunpowder Treason and Plot, There is no reason, Why the Gunpowder Treason Should ever be forgot

Hope everyone had a good Halloween, details on mine coming soon!

Happy Halloween, and a Self Portrait

It's here. By tomorrow, magic will fill the streets, darkness shall fall, and Halloween shall commence. Snow or no snow, we WILL create a spectacle for the Trick-or-Treaters and their families. To all my fellow haunters, I wish you all the best of luck, and to the rest of you, savor this greatest of days.

And now, I'd like to thank each and every one of you who came across my little slice of the internet. I can remember starting this blog in Middle School after finding Pumpkinrot's blog, and I now have 76 followers. I have been very fortunate to have found so many amazing people and blogs over the past two-and-a-half years. Many of you have been a great inspiration to me, in both Halloween and in life. I don't know if I will blog forever (I want to), but I will certainly remember the time I spent writing my thoughts, and the wonderfully people I've stumbled across that I would almost certainly have never met otherwise. So I thank you all for supporting my blog. You are ALL awesome!

Before I show you my self-portrait, I'd like to dedicate this Halloween to a few special people:
1) My Mom. You have always supported my insanity, and have such talent, and are one of the most loving people I know. Love you!
2) My Step-Dad, Ben. You have been a great influence in my life, and have really pushed me to think, and not just become a boring, unoriginal person. Thank you.
Last, but certainly NOT least...
3) My friend, Autumnforest. You are truly one of the wisest souls around, and a good friend. You always have words of encouragement, and wisdom. May life continue to give you adventurers.

Now, a self-portrait. I did myself as Edvard Munch's The Scream two years ago as a Freshman, in a Photoshop class. Hope you like;


Happy Halloween to us all!

Lord Almighty, say it ain't so!

Good News: I'm in Pennsylvania, at my Mom's house, for Halloween. One last year of doing a Haunt with her and my siblings. And tonight I'm going to see Steve Hickman's "Dark Works" haunt in it's 13th Anniversary. Should be a blast.



Bad News: It's snowing. TWO FRIGGIN' DAYS BEFORE HALLOWEEN!!! Why, in the name of Hades did it have to SNOW!?!

Halloween Party Tomorrow

Yep, the Second Annual Spookshow Bash is this Saturday. I'm hoping all goes well. It's gonna be fun. Now for a totally random picture:

Anyone see the clown face?

UPDATE: A family crisis arose, I had to cancel the party.
