I was not too scared to read Stephen King until I managed to get my hands on Salem’s Lot at age 12. Thankfully my dad’s family is more Catholic than the Pope and gave me a lifetime supply of crucifixes and rosaries and prayer books that I used as vampire deterrent one night.
Big bad vampire Kurt Barlow from the 1979 Salem’s Lot TV series. A bald person with blueish skin, extremely piercing yellow eyes and large, pointy, nasty, evil teeth. He was even scarier in my imagination.

What fictional creature/villain traumatized you as a child?

I’ve got two!
When I was 3 or 4 I sneaked downstairs to watch from the stairs when my dad was watching a “cartoon”. Spent the next ten years or so believing that LotR was a horror novel and was too scared to read it.
From: Peter Bakshi’s animated Lord of the Rings. A Ringwraith on a black horse, in front of a fiery orange sky. Both have scary red eyes.

Picture of me in my depression robe hiding in my hotel room blanket fort with a cup of hot chocolate making sad pirate noises.
Actually a picture of Ed in his breakup robe hiding in his blanket fort with a cup of tea licking his finger being very, very sad.

Packed and ready to go! And that more than two hours before I have to leave?!?!? No idea how that happened? Now starting to worry whether I’ll get busted for yarn smuggling at the airport? 🙀
A large light teal suitcase and a cabin sized one standing in a corridor. A greenish bag is on top of the smaller suitcase.

At one of my favourite jobs - catering wine and tiny goodies for a music/storytelling event. Intermission is over, my dad and our staff are transporting stuff home and I’m sitting in the empty lobby listening to the music and stories through the door. Lovely.
Some plates on a table. Each plate has six small treats on it: a flower shaped tartelette with a squash cream, tiny pumpkin cubes and cress, a small tartelette with a salsiccia filling, a profiterole, a tartelette with a passionfruit cream, blueberry and mint leaf, a macaron with gold dust, a chocolate cone with a caramel filling.

Almost done! Just a few more ends to sew in and a bit of tidying up to do, then blocking and finishing the boring back. Ready in time for Wee Con!
A floral crochet square, about 50x50 cms. The colours are different shades of teal, turquoise, purple, brown, red and pink and some brighter colours like orange, yellow and a dark teal.

Yesterday was a beautiful day for a lovely stroll in the mountains but alas my school managed to turn it into a competitive march that was hell for my messed up knee. Anyway, have some cows and sheep!
A bunch of lovely cows having a lazy day on a Bavarian mountain pasture. The sky is the bluest blue, the grass the greenest green, there are some trees in the background. Some sheep also hanging out in the mountains. Not pictured: The evil eye they gave the silly humans marching past them. The sky in this picture has some fluffy white clouds.

Stede Bonnet at the breakfast table in OFMD S1E10. He looks very put out. The caption reads “I object to the word subtle”
