Pilgrimage of a 45+ #HorrorAndYoyos enthusiast. Metalhead and coffee lover. These are simple musings from a simple reader. Apologies if my opinion of your book has soured our friendship.
It’s a dark and stormy morning, the kids are off to school, and I am reconnecting with Clive Barker & the Hell Priest.

Dope! I saw an unfinished test screening 2000-‘01 ish, then hit up opening night in ‘03.

Short lived hip-hop phase. Dude on the left really killed our vibe.

I didn’t get a chance to go to the 25th anniversary They Live screening, but I found it on Peacock so I’m watching it, and ya know what?

I’m starting to believe that maybe I’ve never actually seen this movie…

Current read: Bad Movie Night, Pat Lacey x Grindhouse Press.

And I’ve started Warren Wagner’s The Only Safe Place Left is the Dark, available now from @ghoulish.bsky.social. The opening chapters are great! I’m amped up for this.

I finished, and enjoyed, Tim Meyer’s Rainbow Filth, coming soon from @ghoulish.bsky.social. Here’s a pic of Rainbow Filth in grayscale, for a hoot.

This is how I feel when old-ass Georgians ask me how much “Wokeness” I brought with me from California…

Good morning Blue Sky! What’s the good word? Tell me all your good news!

Cashed in some amazon credits for this. I’ve been wanting to check out this yak driven narrative for a while. Pest by @michaelcisco.bsky.social, a @clashbooks.bsky.social joint.

Slipped into this one late last night, in between migraine waves, and fell under it’s spell rather quickly. Daubed in Darkness, by @SolitarySpiral, dropping around Halloween. Stone is always a pleasure. There’s a Kindle giveaway over at Goodreads,so, you know…

Determined to block 5-10 sponsored add and rando not-my-people accounts every time I log in to the Twit show while still refusing to update my app. It’s petty, I know, but this is how I push back.

Second escape room themed book in two weeks

It’s been a hot minute since a Patrick Lacey joint popped into casa Madness, and now there’s a buzz permeating the library…

I finished Todd Keisling’s thoroughly wonderful Cold, Black & Infinite.

And I dare you to find a better five story block than:

The Smile Factory
Holes in the Fabric
Happy Pills
Gethsemane
We’ve All Gone to the Magic Show

5⭐️

Dropping 9/26 from Cemetery Dance.

Anyone else read ComiXology’s Night of the Ghoul? It’s quite solid.
