In the center of a green frame, a photo of the author wearing a black jacket and a hat shaped like Yoshi from Super Mario World. The author is sticking out her tongue. In the bottom left corner of the frame, an illustration of a creepy clown peeks out from the corner. Top text: Abigail Kemske's "The Brood Thanks You For Your Service" is free to read on the Die Laughing Website Bottom text, in a speech bubble coming from the clown: You're an excellent host and you didn't even know it!

I used to follow this band on Myspace. Pretty sure I downloaded the song Alea Iacta Es or 30 sec sample.
There seems to be no where to get these songs anymore. 😭
Note: There is a Folk Metal band by the same name, which is very easy to find.

In the center of a black frame, a photo of the author (a smiling, bespectacled person with dark hair and a sparkly witch’s hat) standing in the Halloween aisle of a store. In the bottom left corner of the frame, an illustration of a creepy clown peeks out from the corner. Top text: Lena Ng's "Afternoon Tea Over Innsmouth " is free to read on the Die Laughing Website Bottom text, in a speech bubble coming from the clown: “Arghugarrkjejrble,” he said. And he meant it!

With eight daughters of marrying age, what's a man to do when a wealthy abomination comes to call? Put the kettle on, naturally. Do horrors beyond our comprehension like scones? Read today's free story by Lena Ng to find out for yourself! #dielaughing #horror

In the center of a gray frame, a photo of a black cat in black and white. The eyes of the cat stare piercingly from the void of the furry face. We presume this is not the author, but can we really be sure? In the bottom left corner of the frame, an illustration of a creepy clown peeks out from the corner. Top text: Mir Rainbird's "The Moaning Caverns Cry for You! Yes, You!" is free to read on the Die Laughing Website Bottom text, in a speech bubble coming from the clown: Oooooooooo! Oooooooooooo! Moan with me! Oooooooooooooooo!

Some vacation destinations just cry out "visit me!" This location just cries out. And cries out. And cries out. But you want to visit anyway, don't you? Look no further than this week's free flash by Mir Rainbird, now free to read on the Die Laughing website. #dielaughing

In the center of a blue frame, a photo of the author (a person with short, dark hair and short facial hair) shown in profile standing outdoors. He is wearing a pretty nice sweater. In the bottom left corner of the frame, an illustration of a creepy clown peeks out from the corner. Top text: Glenn Dungan's story "Davy is floating" is free to read on the Die Laughing Website Bottom text, in a speech bubble coming from the clown: Brothers! Am I right??

This story goes out to everyone who's ever had a sibling. Particularly if you've had a sibling who's made cryptic proclamations whilst levitating several feet overhead. Read "Davy Is Floating" by Glenn Dungan for free on our website today! #dielaughing

In the center of a black frame, a photo of the author (a smiling, bespectacled person with dark hair and a sparkly witch’s hat) standing in the Halloween aisle of a store. Top text: Die Laughing Magazine, Issue 5 Lena Ng "Afternoon Tea Over Innsmouth" Bottom text, a quote from the story: Now it is a well-known fact that a mannerly monster of good fortune would be in want of a wife.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a horror comedy lit mag in possession of an Eldritch Austen Abomination, must be in want of readers. Please join us in welcoming back Lena Ng, the mag's first returning contributor, to tell us all about it over tea in just 5 short days! #dielaughing

In the center of a beige frame, a photo of the author (a person with longish blonde hair and two nose rings). They are looking directly at the camera and smiling slightly. Top text: Die Laughing Magazine, Issue 5 Ash Vale "Results of groundwater formaldehyde reduction using M4501 strain of pleurotus ostreatus" Bottom text, a quote from the story: The purpose of this study is to investigate the mycoremediation potential of a crossbred strain of nematophagous fungi, specifically pleurotus ostreatus, or oyster mushrooms, on embalming formaldehyde in groundwater.

The concept may seem a bit abstract (see what we did there?) but our hypothesis is you'll love this found fiction fright from @ashvalewrites.bsky.social and we hope you'll read the mag on 10/31 and help show the world we were right. We were right about everything. #horror #dielaughing

In the center of a white frame, a cartoon clown dressed in black with green and red decorations has his arms crossed over his chest, his mouth sewn shut, and coins over his eyes. There is a black frame around him in the shape of a coffin. A jaunty birthday hat sits atop his head, and a birthday blower is near his mouth. "Die Laughing" is written over his torso in white letters. A birthday cake is next to him, and a spooky haunted-looking house with bats flying around it lurks in the background. A banner that reads "Happy Birthday" is across the top, the H is covered by a bat.

One year ago today, we published the first issue of Die Laughing Mag. We hoped to last, and we still do, but the significance of the milestone is not lost on us. We're so proud of the deeply silly horrors we've shared with you. Thank you for a fantastic year, and here's to many more. #dielaughing

Top text: Die Laughing Magazine, Issue 5 Glenn Dungan "Davy Is Floating" Bottom text, a quote from the story: One morning I woke up and Davy was floating and grandma told him to stop but he wouldn’t.

If you have a sibling, you probably know how stressful it can be when they misbehave. Everyone up in arms, your brother up a few feet from the floor...

See how this plays out in "Davy is Floating," a harrowing story by Glenn Dungan in Die Laughing Magazine this Halloween! #horror #dielaughing

In the center of a brown frame, a photo of the author (a person with longish, light hair) peeking out through a hole in one of those wooden panels with the face cut out. This one makes her look like a pilot with goggles and a helmet and a uniform. Top text: Die Laughing Magazine, Issue 5 Romie Stott "It Is My Circus; They Are My Monkeys; But I Have Limited Influence on the Monkeys" Bottom text, a quote from the story: Look. Have you ever tried to get monkeys to do something? Or, more saliently, not do something? As someone with a monkey circus, I have a lot of experience in this area.

Here at Die Laughing Mag we have plenty of experience with clowns, but monkeys? Not our usual bag. Thankfully, we've found expert monkey wrangler @romiesays.bsky.social to tell us all about it. Read the story in Issue 5 this Halloween! #horror #dielaughing

A woman lies on her back, in bed, fast asleep. One arm is draped behind her head. A small creature, perhaps a demon, crouches on her chest. A black horse with very white teeth leans in from the window. Both the creature and the horse are wearing festive birthday hats, and the creature holds a party blower in its mouth. When she awakes, the woman will have a very special birthday surprise.

Cover reveal! This artist has graced the inner pages of the magazine since the beginning, but the moment we saw this comically unnerving art by @authoriseult.bsky.social we knew it was the perfect way to mark one full year of the mag. Sleep with one eye open and get ready to laugh! #dielaughing

Uno meme! On the left, an Uno card that reads "choose between laughter and fear OR draw 25" and on the right, a seated person holding a hand full of so many Uno cards (clearly having drawn 25 to avoid such an unfair decision).

We won't choose and you can't make us! We're bringing you the best of hilarious horror (and we're also probably losing at cards).

@dielaughingmag.bsky.social The Lovely folks at Die Laughing Magazine are going to be posting some of mine in either Issue 5 or 6, so stay tuned and keep your eyes peeled--peeler optional. #dielaughing #horror #humor #writing

On a taupe background, centered, a photograph of the author (a person with short light-colored hair and a beard, looking slightly to his right). Top text: Rob Walker's flash story "Are You There, Dagon? It's Me, Kevin" is free to read on the Die Laughing Website In the lower left corner, the Die Laughing logo peeks in (an illustration of a dead clown in a coffin, with red hair and white gloved hands crossed over his chest. He has silver coins over his eyes). In a speech bubble, the clown says "You never know what your kid will bring home from the library"

Actually, Mel Brooks was spot-on. #TheProducers should've engineered a flop; instead, it engendered the absurdly idiotic. Make Nazis lovable buffoons and the whole world falls for them. #DieLaughing.

That meme where the boyfriend is staring at the girl in the red dress while his girlfriend looks on in disgust. Boyfriend is you. Girlfriend is "peeing pants with fear". Red dress is "peeing pants with laughter".

Here at Die Laughing, we would never make you choose. Horror comedy for the discerning reader. Submissions open 7/15.
