AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” is my latest obsession

I inadvertently classically conditioned my cats into harassing me for treats every time I turn off the living room light before bed. Making good use of my psych degree 🤡

Trimming the nails of a hedgehog is about as easy as it sounds 🫪

I forget to promote myself sometimes. Bram Stoker Awards® winning author of 101 Horror Books to Read Before You’re Murdered/ Human Monsters was nominated. Co-Owner of the monthly horror subscription service, Night Worms and my book, Feral & Hysterical was released 8/25

I ✨ finally ✨ got around to organizing my bookshelves! Top shelf: basically a Grady Hendrix shrine Second shelf: signed editions Third shelf: sprayed edges + Stephen Kings Fourth shelf: vintage, classic, and trade editions

An Irish Nightmare - We explore the real folklore behind new horror movie HOKUM: bloody-disgusting.com/longform/395...

#obsession 100% lived up to the hype

I have a job interview today and I FORGOT THAT THIS HAS BEEN MY STUPID POFILE PICTURE ON WEBEX FOR LIKE A YEAR. Talk about a killer first impression

making some cheeky 🍑 book accessories (you really can make anything with yarn)

So I just learned about the Andean Cock-of-the-rock. First of all, look at this thing. Secondly, they really just name birds anything, huh?

They Hayley Williams gods have blessed me again

#Hokum round 2

Mother’s Day is a great time to break out the yarn and floral wire

I know a certain vampire who would find this unacceptable:

Sure, sex is great but have you ever listened to a book while you eyeball read it at the same time?

Man, I’ve really been sleeping on Josh Malerman. Here’s a doodle inspired by “Goblin” 🦉

I have no clue how to display this without feeing like I’m placing a curse on my home

“Hokum” snuck up on me as one of my unanticipated new favorite movies

I love anything with Adam Scott in an elevator apparently

If you’re a fan of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” or have ever wanted to read it, you should check out @draculadaily.bsky.social. They have a free newsletter that lets you read along with the journal entries in real time. What a cool project!

Feed me, Seymour

We recently finished “Severance” and I’m still thinking about it

Today is Indie Bookstore Day! Here’s a throwback to one of my favorite bookstore moments. Casey drove me 3 hours to meet my all-time favorite writer, Mr. Grady Hendrix, at Quail Ridge Books in North Carolina a few years ago and that memory will always stick with me!

Me, at the doctor’s office without my glasses and running on like 3 hours of sleep: “I like your hedgehog tattoo! We have one of those!” Very kind nurse: “oh thank you!” The hedgehog in question:

I’ve been decomposing on the couch this week and watched both “28 Years Later” and “The Bone Temple.” Pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed them both! Give me more unhinged Jack O’Connell

Exciting book mail day! I recently won this hand-bound copy of “Tender is the Flesh” from a charity auction and I couldn’t be more blown away by it. The bookbinder even made bookmarks out of the original cover!

“Hell is a teenage girl”

My movie picks for girls’ night always have a certain ✨ pizazz ✨ (people get eaten)

I used some funds from recent art commissions to participate in a community auction hosted by Press the Patriarchy. Not only did they raise over $100,000 to benefit communities impacted by ICE, but I scored this beautiful, hand-made copy of Tender is the Flesh!

They have them at KROGER?!

Predator Badlands was a lot of fun

Hachette Book Group has pulled formerly self-published horror novel Shy Girl by Mia Ballard from its upcoming publication in the US over suspected AI use 👇 #BookSky

Just a little something to take the edge off: oil pastels and #heatedrivalry

How far would you be willing to go to save your family? Ben Young’s upcoming novel “Ride the Spiral” poses this question with teeth bared. This book ripped my heart out of my ribs, chewed it up, and spit it out onto concrete. I’d rate this sucker punch of a novel 6 stars if I could.

SCREAMING

I haven’t picked up a comic book in a long time, but I’m in love with the artistic direction of the “Absolute Batman” line. I need to pick these up ASAP! The Poison Ivy and Joker redesigns are killer - no pun intended

2024 vs 2026 - if you’re ever stuck in a rut thinking your art isn’t good enough, just remember how far you’ve come!

Sometimes I feel like I’m not that interesting and then I remember I’ve been asked not to return to Staples due to copyright infringement so there’s that 🤪

POV: the vampires across the graveyard definitely want to drink your blood

Re-sharing this since Amy Madison won a well-deserved Critics Choice Award for her performance in “Weapons”

I had mixed feelings about the finale of “Stranger Things,” but overall, I think I liked it? Anywho, now seems like a good time to paint a cool scene from the last season

I feel like Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Jingle All the Way” trying to track down one of these Fugglers

2025 has been filled with good books, weird art, and beautiful moments with people I love 💛

Like mother like son

when you have an itch that you can’t scratch

“Don’t hang up the phone”

You might say I’m ✨ over the moon ✨ about the latest addition to my library (I’ll see myself out now)

feeling sorta scary and sorta merry

Here’s my attempt to get you to read this book - it’s stunning
