This is excellent (I would have known it was Clay's work even if it was anonymous), particularly as I just rewatched Shivers last week. The whole zine is full of great work from @horrorsong.blog, @brackenmacleod.bsky.social, Jim Horlock, and more, you should check it out and donate if you can.

if you choose to watch and get into any of them, message me about it!!!

are great, the characters are my favorite characters ever (both seasons). i am a core cast girly so i mostly stick to their seasons, but my second favorite was Neverafter which is the dark fantasy/horror season with the theme of fairytale and meta fiction!

have you watched Unsleeping City??? it's my absolute favorite, but that's because it's got a more contemporary, metropolitan setting. it's about a magical New York tied to the dreaming, and it was one of the most inspiring, genius, funny, emotionally evocative things i have watched. both seasons

Listened to this fantastic episode again on my drive home from @voidcon.bsky.social and found it extremely relavent to the ‘Horror As A Place’ panel. Highly recommended. #psychogeography

This weekend at Voidcon 3 I walked the battlefields in Gettysburg before the festivities experiencing an unexpected sense of outrage & loss, and shared a piece of writing about war that terrified me to speak. The creators I met inspired me and gave me the courage to do this reading. Thank you all.

Read @horrorsong.blog's 'How to Fuck a Genocide' in GCJ5!

"Ascending into a conglomerate, hand over hand, these instantaneous eunuchs devour fetal tissue to build a new city. All roads converge and fail to provide access or egress. All time is an accident."
