Finished Trad Wife by Sarah Langan, on @stephenking.bsky.social recommendation.
Not disappointed.
Not sleeping either, but that's on me.

So, your turn.
Go.

Happy Halloween. For your horror, this story's sociopathic pansexual cop is scarier than the ghost of her dead ex girlfriend.

After prepping for all of these upcoming pitch events, decompressing by drawing some character art. When my MCs finally kiss is my feel-good moment (because even horror stories can have happy endings).

How have you (or an artist) made your characters come to life?

From: The Faceless God by Robert Bloch

It's a shame Bloch didn't write Nyarlathotep like this in The Shadow from the Steeple.🙁

By these signs, and other apocalyptic portents, the world would know that Nyarlathotep had returned. Soon he himself would be visible - a dark, faceless man in black, walking, staff in hand, across the desert, but leaving no track to mark his way, save that of death.

Happy Halloween to those who celebrate!🎃 My current spooky read is The Black Kiss by Robert Bloch and Henry Kuttner.

Artist Graham Dean moves into a house he recently inherited and starts having strange, underwater dreams.😱

Black loathsome foulness seemed to wash his brain, indescribable but fearfully real, making him shudder with nausea. It was as though unutterable evil were pouring into his body, his mind, his very soul, through the blasphemous kiss on his lips.

Finished it! I wasn't sure how the story was going to go: last minute rescue or tragedy. At least Dean got to take a bite before his uncle and Yamada caught up with him.

Now many of the creatures clutched a grisly trophy at their squamous breasts. The pale white limbs of drowning men trailed in the water as they were dragged off into the darkness by their captors. To the accompaniment of low, carrion laughter the beasts swam away, back down the coast.

Give me an old mansion, a buried family secret, and a protagonist who probably shouldn't trust anyone. Gothic literature is at its best when the atmosphere itself feels dangerous. 🕯️
