THEY’RE BURNING THE LABUBUS.
The Association is in session and we’re discussing the Labubu craze, the people crying demon, and the Gothic history of moral panics. Guest starring Lauren’s Labubus, obviously.

‘The Gothic at War is a significant and timely work. Drawing on a range of representative Gothic narratives, Dr Nixon convincingly interrogates how the trauma of contemporary warfare may be imbricated in ostensibly historical fictions, and how gentlemanly masculinity may be readily distorted by the apparent necessity of violence. Meticulously researched and lyrically written, The Gothic at War will prove a key text for both Gothicists and more general scholars of the Georgian period.’ William Hughes, Professor of Literature in English University of Macau
‘The Gothic at War: Masculinity in Conflict, 1760 – 1818' by @laurenjnixon.bsky.social is an in depth exploration of how the Gothic literature boom of the late-eighteenth century was a response and reaction to the expansion of the British empire.

I’m (Lauren) pleased to announce the safe arrival of my first child, ‘The Gothic at War’, weighing 75 pounds. It was a long and difficult birth but worth the effort.
If you want to support my sweet child, why not order a copy for you library: www.uwp.co.uk/book/the-got... #AcademicChatter #Gothic

Title card for our episode. Text reads: "The Ghoul Guides Present: WITCHING HOUR: EARLY MODERN HUNTS. A Ghoul Guides Association Video." On a light pink background is a wood cut image of a witch and a devil figure both riding on broomsticks towards another woman.
New episode! This time Mary delves into the early modern era to explore the #Gothic history of witch trials, a King with a vendetta, a self-proclaimed Witch Finder General, and Lauren's dubious family history: Podcast: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gho...

Black and white photo taken in the woods, showing lots of trees, and in the foreground dead trees lying on the floor.
"And how often was he thrown into complete dismay by some rushing blast, howling among the trees, in the idea that it was the Galloping Hessian on one of his nightly scourings!"
