🎶"Just wait, though far he may roam, always the hero comes home"🎶 This isn't going to be a trick that works for everyone, but taking photos of all the mini adventures in a book over the past 6 years has been good for muh mentulz 🙂‍↕️🥰 I take my journal with me most places I go, we're inseperable! ☕️🍰📸📚💗

After 'Flat Car Battery Friday' 🪫😬 it was nice to have such a great weekend full of great people, good food & fun movies! Not quite sure how I got into the trend of watching Gerard Butler movies to start January but ima lean into it! 🚢 Lets hope this'll be a blueprint for '26 🙂‍↕️ now, time for ☕️🍰💗

"It's a great day... for kicking ass!" What better way to start '26 than by beating a game that came out a decade ago, this is the reason I never get rid of things, if you ever wanted to see Iron Man turn Venom into a puddle of goo or play taxi cab ping-pong w/Thing & patchwork frankenstein soldier⬇️

Good idea 😃💡: Spending a cozy snow day weekend inside 🛋📺. Bad idea: 🫩: Spending 20mins clearing snow off my car so I can drive to work. Anyhow, howz the new year treatin ya? I intend to continue as I started, with movies ridiculous ➡️ sublime, great coffee, old video games & then journaling about it!

The concept of taking time to yourself and recharging isn't just practical, it's Biblical & i'd be foolish to ignore it! So that's why i've been spending these past 4 blissful days playing Marvel Nemesis & Chaosbane in between watching horror movies about K.O weed-loving Leatherface & Mouseboys! 😌🐭🚬

Of all the years, this has definitely been the most recent 🫠 but despite the many curveballs & speedbumps throughout, there has still been so many fun times! 🥰 plenty of adventuring, journaled about it in cute cafés & great movies, from killer 🎄 to a Pete Davidson killing spree! 👴🏻💉🪓 more in '26 plz!

This year, the tree will be trimming YOU! If you ever wondered what it'd be like if Ralph Ineson sounded like if he smoked like the Marlboro Man and was also an evil sentient 🎄 that likes chasing after pretty girls, I have good news; The Killing Tree is the answer fir those pining for a good time 🤣🎁

Growing up, the Twits was 1 of my fave stories, so I was excited to see it get an animated adaption. And then I watched it 😬 they declawed them, made to do sensitivity training 🫩 while Netflix didn't massacre it quite as bad like Custer did to the Sioux, yeesh! Good ol reliable Seagal though. 🐒🎡🪱🍝

Me and the crew leaving work after another crazy working shift. Beyond stoked to have some time booked off over the next few days to do some festive self-care! BT-dubs, if you're looking for a fun Seagal movie, check Today You Die: fun fights & shootouts, dumb humor, Treach is in it!. #hamchops 🥩💪🦴💣

Happy Nemesis-vember to those that celebrate (that'd be just me, I guess) work has been XL 'welcome to the suck' & i've been MIA here, taking some time off now for a few days to play old video games, eat good food, drink a lot of ☕️ and watch as many dumb movies as I can. Twill be good for the soul 🥰

I can't say I knew St Augustine personally, but I agree with what he's saying; over the past 3 years i've travelled more on my own & loved it more than I ever did in former friend groups. Don't think i'll ever tire of café hopping w/my journal, visiting museums by myself or thrifting in new places 🚇

How is it Monday again already, I feel like I just sat down with my ☕️➕️🍔 to watch dumb movies & spooky-centric YT a minute ago! 🥴😒 (Yes therapy is great but have you tried watching Sensei Segal plot armor hid way thru a Russian gang or Richard Greico awaken an Amazonian guardian spirit?) 🥩💪 #hamchops

a thing I found

"He stands in the fields and waits!" the final night of the best time of year is winding down here in the Nest, but my what a harvest of horror it has been! Ironically enough, just going own pace made it the best 🎃 yet. A lil sad it's over but like Stingy Jack & Gallowgog it'll be back next year! 😌

If I had a nickel for every horror movie I watched this October, where a supernatural entity that's only visible to the protagonist, distorts their realities and does messed up things to faces. I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but weird it happened twice! The movies being The Rake & Smile obv

If you're looking for something to satisfy those spooky vibes but a little outside the box, i'd heartily endorse The Town Without Halloween, I love the creature effects, the myriad Halloween decor, synthy soundtrack & likable cast. I found it fun and charming despite its low budget indie nature 🎃🏚🧟🍂

Out for one last PSL & w/ rapidly approaching faster than that train at the end of Final Destination: Bloodlines, you might 💭 i'd be watching the classics, you'd 💭 wrong tho 😂 most of the time i'd prefer to eat cereal & watch Robert Patrick (or should that be Robert Totec) and giant monster bears 🏹🐻

"Oro, Remendium, Unus!" Ah what better start to my week off than with Spooky Game Completion #2 with Condemned 2! A different beast than the 1st game but still a blast! It's grimy, grim & gruesome as you explore derelict hotels & the burning doll factory & hit museum theives with medieval weapons 🔎📻

treat yo self!!!

In this (haunted) house 👻🏚 sick days don't have to be bad days! 🙂‍↔️ not when there's good coffee, 🎃 treats and comfort horror to be watched. I spent yesterday pummelling museum thieves in Condemned 2 with warhammers & watching what you 👀 below. Psychic kids & a cannibal hillbilly make for good company

Whoa! The new Syngenor figure from Trick or Treat Studios is out! Found at @thehouseoffuntoys in NJ!

"I do not drink... wine" but he might share a coke with you if you got him a bottle with his name on it! Random, fun finds like this (and taking pics of them for my journal) are one of my favorite things about Halloween this year, and every other tbh. Remember kids, brush your fangs to prevent decay

Scooby Snack Ice Cream (2000-circa 2002): A promotional item for "Scooby-Doo"/Cartoon Network, this ice cream from Edy's/Dreyer's consisted of a chocolate and vanilla base, with dog bone-shaped pieces of peanut butter cookie dough, and chocolate-covered peanut butter cookie pieces

I hadn't watched House with a Clock in Its Walls since its theatrical release, but I was looking to change it up, after watching Monsterville for the past few 🎃 seasons. So glad I did! Jack Black & Cate Blanchett are a fab duo. Kyle MaCachlan is GREAT as Izard. A fun, surprisingly dark adventure!🏚🕰🧱

I am having such a nice time just going at my own pace this 🎃 season, not worrying about how many horror movies I watch but enjoying the ones I do, not stressing if i'm not able to get to certain activities, but revelling in those I can. I *have* beaten my previous record of Autunnal beverages tho 😂

Spawn (1997) Director: Mark A.Z. Dippé

"I have faced my demons & I have many" digging through my movie shelves, revisiting movies I haven't seen in years. Last night was Oculus, a decade plus since its release - the lore of the Lasser Glass, the slow burn of the mirrors evil influence on two generations still gets its hooks into me! 🍎💡🪞👻

How and why is it Monday again already? And my but 🎃 season is rattling by 😵‍💫 but that's OK, I spent this past weekend running from an angry 🐻 in Condemned 2, swamp-bat monster comics & revisiting old fave horrors with haunted mirrors & Jason's vacation! I won't beat last years record but fun trying!

'25 Macabre Masterpiece feat some unique finds ⬇️ 1) Hidden between Sweet Tooth & VHS is the skull opium pipe I bought while on vacation w/my mom 2) Principal Weems bagclip I picked up in Armagh (along w/orange Alien in pic 3) 3) Spooky Tree KO Lego from Derry. 4) Alien exhibit 5) M3gan Fanta can! 🎃🥰

It's been quite a while since I last watched JTM, but i'm super glad I chose to revisit it. Love this movie; fun soundtrack, the dual settings of the Lazarus during the storm/grimy New York, some likable characters. Jason shows some great creativity in his kills & even a sense of humor at times! 🚢🌃

With every passing year, I feel like October passes by quicker & quicker and before we know it, Spooky Season is over yet again! 🥴 so it's important to look for those little glimmers that remind us of why 🎃 is 👑. Even if it's just looking at neat stuff on store shelves or watching true crime on 📺🪓🚔☕️

To stop the blues when a vacation ends, spend some time with monster friends! After an amazing few days in Derry, I am back in the Nest reading R.L Stine, making fall themed coffee & watching movies about werewolves and disfugured freaks performing power drill lobotomies. Cozy, contented, creepy! 🐺🧠

It's my first official day of 🎃 staycation time & have already thrifted TWO Seagal movies 🥳 and i'm sitting in Starbucks with a PSL (like the basic bitch I am) listening to GhettoVampire and updating my journal with recent spooky seasons viewings of Burning Bright and Conjuring the Genie, life? Good

If you haven't yet seen Burning Bright, i'd encourage you to! It does so much with its confined setting, the tension built between trying to avoid the tiger & keeping her brother safe is palpable. Come for the evil tiger & Briana Evigan in her underwear, stay for a thoughtful depiction of autism 🐅🌪

It's the start of my first 🎃 staycation & there is going to adventuring, coffee & horror movies to catch up on (and then journal about! 🤓📚) it's so much fun discovering or rediscovering monsters & villains. I'd befriend Frendo, give Ratman treats but prob avoid those head-ripping, probe happy 👽 tho!

There's really no other time of year that can hold a black 🕯to 🎃 in my humble opinion. Once upon a midnight dreary I used to get FOMO seeing all the cool spooky promo stuff available overseas, until that is, I started checking out grocery shelves here in more detail. A most bountiful harvest already

"I have already found my escape" Hooray, it's Spooky Game Completion #1 for this 🎃 with Shadows of the Damned! While the humor doesn't always land in it; the combat, boss battles & surreal level design make Garcia's jaunt through thru Demon World to rescue Paula worth their weight in red gems! 💎🍾💀👹

And now a picture of Heather Langenkamp and a Rancor, because why not?

Words to live by…

Is it just me or is September rattling along at an alarming rate? 😵‍💫 My plans for this long awaited weekend are simply thus: bake 🦖🧁✅️ put a dent in my horror watchlist (both DVD & YT) 💿📺✅️ read comics, drink coffee 📚☕️ (in progress). Adulting drools, 🎃🍂 rules. Why sit & wait for October to roll around?

"Like a rotten 🎃 she was!" what a glorious time of year, weather's chilly enough to wear a big jumper again, searching for Halloween promos on every store & a when a gloomy day elevates even the dumbest or most mediocre horror into the upper echelons! Case in point - Megaboa and Exorcist: Believer 💚

Post a movie you like with a terrible Rottentomatoes score.

"To the bridge of Khazad-Dumb!" Too 😴 to make a celebratory tweet, but I suppose the TL:DR version of it would be that rainy gray & sleep-deprived Sundays are tailor made for staying indoors with leftover 🥡 and 🍰 while watching bad-fun movies about timelooping livestreams & ramapaging Temu orcs! 🧌💻🍂

Sometimes it's not the big moments that define a season but, like the Terrorcons merging to form Abominus, several smaller things joining together to make a greater whole. Whoever invented adult coloring books - I love you. But whoever made 🎃 themed 📚, I love you more! Here's some recent efforts! 🎨😊

That was a really good weekend of spooky self-care, if I do say so myself! Two & a half days off might not seem like a lot but we did our best to fit in as much 🍂🍁 fun as possible. I'm out for coffee in one of my fave spots w/my journal & already planning next weekend. I ❤️‍🔥 Weapons btw, captivated! 🥫

My goal for this season's viewing is a simple one (and twofold) and that's to beat last years total as well as rediscover some old favorites. Been spending my free time knocking Eliot off his perch in Shadows of the Damned, reading horror comics & watching such delightful fare as Dark Lullabies & 🎃🌝

I was talkin' yesterday with @sammyhain.bsky.social about the importance of fun traditions for random days during 🎃 and after a rough August, the 🦴🫴 of spooky season reached out, picked me up & said "come with me" 🥰 I have been loving horror comics & SOTD. And yes that is M3GAn on a Fanta can there

It's been the longest weeks that's ever been a week long 🫩💔 so i've been very grateful for a 🌫🌧 Sunday indulging in all things spooky - took down George in Shadows of the Damned, read Ghost Rider, watched movies about ravenous zombies & killer animatronics. When life sux, 🎃 spirit comes in clutch!💚
