I feel like an apparition.
Hollowed out.
Bones rattlin around in an empty tank.

If you were one of the last ones standing on any night of VOIDCON I both love you and hate you and I hope to see you again soon.

THANK YOU.

So grateful that the people of @voidcon.bsky.social took this exactly as seriously as it deserved to be taken (which is to say: VERY FUCKING SERIOUSLY).

Also, considering nearly everyone who voted said some variation of "obviously" when casting their ballots, I was surprised at how close it was.

"Three tiny plastic cauldrons on the steps of a wooden ladder against a wall, placed on alternating sides. Each small cauldron has an image of the actor in his role in his respective Nosferatu film, and stuck to each is a blue post-it note with the handwritten verdict, underlined.

Top step: Klaus Kinski (fuck).
Middle step: Max Schreck (marry)
Bottom step: Bill Skarsgård (kill)."
