#Horror comedy at its finest!

WOOHOOOOOO! Very excited for Die Laughing Issue 3!

s e x t o y s 🍆🐰🔥💦

What? You don't know what you're selling? Don't worry. Just smile. Keep smiling. Are you smiling???

I don't think Romancelandia has read the fine print at the bottom yet. You know, the part where it talks about sex toys?

Sometimes your spell goes off without a hitch, and sometimes… not so much. Evan Baughfman’s story has one of these. Read “Bad Necromance” to find out which one! (Coming April 21st in Die Laughing Issue 3.)

It’s time! Issue 3 is almost here! The first story we want to yell about is “The One for Whom They Have Waited” by Courtney Dachelle Key (with assistance from her ​​demanding canine overlord). Will the ceremony be a success? Will the Ancient Ones rise? BRO!!!! I can’t wait to find out!

We could all use a laugh right now

We know the job market is tough right now, but we’re partnering with @sallysultzman.bsky.social to bring you "An Exciting Career Opportunity!" Grab this crate, come on in, and don’t forget to smile! Read it April 21st in Issue Die Laughing Issue 3.

APRIL FOOLS! Our real TOC is so much better! Coming to get you April 21st. No joke.

Wow, can you believe these clowns sold out like that? Unreal.

DISAPPOINTING! OR EXCITING! I CAN'T DECIDE!!!!!
