From time to time, racist politicians come to Birmingham, UK, to make a "my loser assumptions are widely shared" video, and the whole city is just like "go home, asshole." It's one of the things that I love about the city I live in.

Loved narrating this one. It's a surprisingly warm tale about a haunted house. What's not to love about that?  #horror https://youtu.be/-2SGuf2LIPk

To reduce disease, we all need to make some urgent but simple changes to how we feed our garden birds. See our website for the latest guidance: brnw.ch/21x1t4w

Loved this one by Richard Farren Barber, It's got a real old-school taste to it, and it just rips.  https://www.amidnightkindofplace.com/amothersloverichardfarren/ For my writer friends, we're still open to submissions! #Shortstories

Ireland has increased its minimum wage year after year for the last decade. During that time, plenty of business groups have warned that the move could lead to job losses. However, study after study shows that has not actually happened. jrnl.ie/7001863

I'm proud to announce the publication of my story 'Into the Blizzard and Out of the Cold.' It's available to read on the 'A Midnight Kind of Place Website,' and has also been excellently narrated on YouTube, Spotify, & Apple Podcasts. Links in the posts below. @pauloneillwriter.bsky.social

I don’t believe religion or faith are the problem. It’s our relationship with them that can be. That is, whether we use them to connect or to control, to face our responsibilities towards one another or to avoid them. That applies no matter your belief system - religious, spiritual, or athiest.

1/2 Thank you @horrornonna.com. ‘1000 Women in Horror’ is incredible. I could have watched several hours more! As a cis man who tries to write horror (primarily with female protagonists), and who works in a maternity unit (primarily with people undergoing emergency procedures)… boxd.it/WdJo

The Gorgon: Now we’re cooking! This was a delight all the way through. Everything feels right, and the interplay between Lee and Cushing at the end is just magnificent. Very happy to see Hammer back on form. @eofftv.bsky.social @bunnydarke.bsky.social #HammerTime

@bunnydarke.bsky.social Balloons! I thought exactly the same, and was so sure of myself that I didn’t bother to even google it. I just scoffed! Well, you’ve just taught me something new, and proven me wrong. Thank you. 🙏

@eofftv.bsky.social and @bunnydarke.bsky.social I am watching ‘The Evil of Frankenstein’. Still on the first act and I have to admit - I’m confused.

It’s that time of year - folks asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain. Please #repost! Every queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist and produce new queen #bees for next year! So important to #share! 1/9 #nature #caring

“This is our God: Jesus, king of peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them.” Quoting a Bible passage, Leo added: “‘Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood.’”

@bunnydarke.bsky.social I spent the whole of ‘Nightmare’ thinking David Knight was the sweet shop guy from Willy Wonka. I was very smug about working it out myself. It turns out that it’s not that guy, and I’ve never seen David Knight in my life!😂 @eofftv.bsky.social

Can we please take a moment to send our thoughts and prayers to The Daily Mail and its reader’s at this difficult time. @zackpolanski.bsky.social and Hannah Spencer have clearly not taken into consideration the impact these joyful scenes will have on their already confused minds.

@bunnydarke.bsky.social @eofftv.bsky.social I liked Nightmare, though it’s quite bonkers - a lot was riding on the assumption that Janet would stab Henry’s wife with that knife, at that time. I think they were extremely lucky that their plan worked at all, and that Janet didn’t just run off.

They’ve arrived! Now it’s time to play catch up. @bunnydarke.bsky.social @eofftv.bsky.social

Do you write weird shit? Do you want to write even WEIRDER? You should consider attending BIZARROCON! Workshops for novelists & screenwriters in horror & more. But if they don't sell 15 more tickets by the end of the week, the con might have to be canceled, so JUMP ON THIS! bizarrocon.com

Tonight at 9pm (21.00) on Sky Arts, FREEVIEW. Art's Wildest Moment: Mannerism. With the one and only Waldemar Januszczak @januszczak.bsky.social Great Art telly on a blustery night.

My thoughts after watching this superb documentary: The 60s was weird. The 70s was weird. Pagans are weird. Hippies are weird. Witches are weird. Old people are weird. Young people are weird. People are weird. I am weird. Britain is weird. Hammer Horror is the best... and weird. boxd.it/Qdto

"Dirty Business" showed how privatised water lets companies pollute more while charging us higher bills. Join us for a talk with Up Sewage Creek on fighting back, saving the Severn, the Water Reform Bill + more. 📆Wednesday, 15 April 2026 🕖7 PM - 9 PM 📍Darby Road - TF8 7EP Everyone is welcome.

Bycatch is a big threat to marine turtles. While LED net lights help, battery waste & cost have been big challenges. We've tested solar‑powered lights that illuminate nets without disposable batteries. Results look promising: fewer turtles caught, no extra cost for fishers, and no battery waste.

Horrified by the antisemitic attack in our city. Antisemitism is vile and has no place here. Solidarity with the Jewish community in Golders Green - and with our communities across the country who will be feeling this today.

Happy World Poetry Day!!  Over at A Midnight Kind of Place, we posted a story by Mir Rainbird which shares the power of the written word. It's such a haunting piece.  #worldpoetryday

@eofftv.bsky.social & @bunnydarke.bsky.social - I’ve got mixed up with my Blu-ray ordering & haven’t got Nightmare (I think I was expecting you to cover something else for some reason). So I have to take a week off before I can catch up. Normal service (of posting inane thoughts) will resume then!😂

I’ve gone all decisive and added these recent ‘house’ paintings to my art shop. Just kinda need to sell stuff and be alive and try to enjoy my life and all that. Oo look. and reposts of this are appreciated. www.chloecumming.com/paintings

This week on HAMMER TIME, Kev (@eofftv.bsky.social) and I are back in France to tackle homicidal lunatics, love triangles and questionable plot points in another of Hammer's 60s thrillers: MANIAC (1963)

The ending of Maniac has annoyed me. Jeff is no hero, he’s a slimy rat. Does it make me a bad person for being disappointed that it wasn’t him in the bandages? It’s still a decent enough film, though perhaps the weakest so far, for me. @eofftv.bsky.social @bunnydarke.bsky.social

On a night shift tonight, so this morning is the perfect time to watch the next #HammerTime film before my afternoon nap. @eofftv.bsky.social @bunnydarke.bsky.social

A Midnight Kind of Place is well worth a look. They have an excellent selection of stories, some from lesser known writers (like me) and others from more established authors. You can also listen on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. @pauloneillwriter.bsky.social www.amidnightkindofplace.com

At this point, I feel that James really needs to start reconsidering his life choices. #SilentHill

I loved Osgood Perkins’ ‘Keeper’. Gave it 4 stars on Letterboxd yesterday, but have bumped it up 1/2 a star today as it’s the first horror in years to give me nightmares. There’s just something about it! It’s got some really disturbing imagery, but something more subtle is going on underneath.

Well, I absolutely loved the finale of Stranger Things. I wouldn’t have wanted to end such a brilliant, cultural behemoth of a show in any other way. It made me do some emotions!
