I’m not saying that #TaylorSwift is inspired by #Rocko’sModernLife
But “Dear John” was the title of both an RML episode AND a TS song.
season 3 … album 3.
But it’s JUST a coincidence, tho

Submitted a short story to @dreampunkpress.bsky.social - loosely based on a character I saw in #NYC years ago.
Hoping it gives them a good scare - Authors, you have til end of month to submit!

“Tell me, Niles: do you believe there was EVER a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mestopholes?”
“Frankly, no, and to be honest, I think Maris could give Mr. Mestopholes a run for his money in the ‘fur’ department.”

Watched #weapons over the weekend, and I have some thoughts...

Read #TheTroop by #NickCutter and had some thoughts wriggling around in my brain. Loved it, thought it reinvented the concept of a zombie in a wonderfully eerie way

Watched The Masque of the Red Death starring #VincentPrice last night. Quite a gem from the 60s; #RogerCorman filmmaking at its finest, plenty of bizarre imagery, fine acting and writing. An interesting way to expand the classic #EdgarAllenPoe story. 8/10 #horror #horrormovies #writing
I remember seeing #TheStrangers in theaters (on a date, which, in hindsight, may not have been the BEST idea…) I remember thinking it was a generic slasher… up until the “Because you were home” line. That one line made the villains far more evil than any other slasher villain to me. #horrorwriting
Absolutely - Very excited to see where the story goes! Congrats on the softcover release, too!
Currently reading Horror Movie by @paultremblay.bsky.social Absolutely loving the format; anyone who is a fan of horror - or who has ever worked on an indie film - will find something in this story that speaks to them. #horrormovie #horror #horrorcommunity #horrornovels
I’m definitely going to have to check that out! Nothing like body-horror to give you the creepy-crawlies!
Manuscript update: I solved the first of three major issues. I know how to fix the second and the third. Once those are fixed, I’ll be looking to submit it. #Horror #HorrorWriting #HorrorAuthors
Had a wild dream the other night that was an interesting combination of #AptPupil by @stephenking.bsky.social , #TheOmen, #Rosemary’sBaby by #IraLevin, and a liiiiittle bit of #IndianaJones.
And now I’m deep-diving into the history of German Witchcraft. Hello #Haxan and #TheBrothersGrimm #Horror
Finally finished #Spider-Man2 on #PS5.
As someone who used to live in the city, the absolute best part of this game is getting to jump, swing, and glide around their version of the city. It’s nostalgia-fuel and every area is a trip down memory lane.
Story? 10/10. Can’t wait for #Spider-Man3
Okay, so, I loved #TheTroop by Nick Cutter, but it got me thinking…
What are the best worms in #horror (lit or #film)?
#horrorcommunity #horrorwriters #horrormovies #horrorfilms
Loved #TheHauntingOfBlyManor and #TheHauntingOfHillHouse but I think #TheFallOfTheHouseOfUsher surpasses them both as an original story taking heavy inspiration from classic written works of #horror As a lifelong Poe fan, I got giddy at every new reference. #horrorwriting #film #horrorfilms
Started reading #AmericanPsycho last night. Immediately impressed with the narration, which puts me into the manic and image-obsessed mindset of #PatrickBateman
The run-on sentences illustrate how much he notices all at once, and how information assaults the senses at all times.

Finished reading #RosemarysBaby last night- incredible example of subtle but effective foreshadowing
That said, there’s too much description of the baby
The movie lets you paint your own picture, and in doing so makes for more effective horror

… anyone ever heard of #TheMonad?
Part of #Gnosticism, The Monad is the collective of all aspects of God. The #God of the #OldTestament and #Jesus are both aspects - or #Aeons - of The Monad. The Old Testament God is called the #Demiurge
#AncientTexts are so fascinating.

Do you like #pirates? #HenryEvery? #mythology? #BabylonianMythology? #Tiamat? #UnsolvedHistory?
Then keep an eye out on this page; my novel covers all of these topics and more!!

I’m currently revising my first #horrornovel
#Editing is a beast; I’ve made my pile of sand and am making it a sandcastle.
It’s like one of those shifting piece puzzles; I have all of the pieces, but some of them need to move ever so slightly.
And one section needs to be cut.
