I’ve been thinking about Rod Serling’s work a lot lately. So I wrote this little yarn. andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/his-eyes

Following up but no rush

Truly one of the funniest people who ever lived. There are no laugh lines in this entire sequence and yet she effortlessly makes a comedic meal out of every moment.

I wrote you a little ghost story for the New Year. open.substack.com/pub/andrewdu...

This is why they want us talking about day care centers and $500 boots.

This part of the last chapter in Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” always brings tears to my eyes. Scrooge goes from fearing, resenting and isolating himself from humanity, to finding the joy of immersing himself in it. A reminder so potent today it makes my heart ache.

Air travel reeeeally brings out my Catholic upbringing. I just earnestly had the thought “People these days don’t feel enough shame.”

To kick off the Yuletide Season, I wrote about the cursed Christmas tree that nearly broke my family exactly 30 years ago today. andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/the-tree-o...

This is pretty much exactly what it’s like to be gay.

Oh you think art is BORING, eh? Well allow me to introduce you to “De Dood” by Simon Fokke.

Trump is asking us to start choosing groups we're willing to abandon, and the only way to make him stop is to be clear we're not fucking abandoning ANYONE. Call your reps. Call your fucking reps. Especially in red states. Use the @5calls.org app, it's easy and free.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

This week in honor of today’s Autumnal Equinox it’s “Spooky Monday” featuring “Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein” and a recipe for Classic Apple Dumplings! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-mon...

There’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for people to build on the rubble of what’s being destroyed before our eyes. Private corporations bending over to forcefeed everyone government-approved speech is evil and amoral, but more than anything this creates boring, inauthentic, unwatchable shit.

(Lights up on Norah Jones dressed as Jaws) “I waited for Quint’s anecdote Then started to destroy his boat He tried to surface me with barrel floats. Don’t know why Quint’s in my throat. Don’t know why Quint’s in my throat.”

Today’s “Spooky Sunday” features two French delights! The animated horror anthology “Fear(s) of the Dark” and a Jacques Pepin Lemon Mousse! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

Good news! Anna Drezen’s cult romp “Praise Petey” is now available to stream on Prime Video! It was such a fun show to work on with so many talented folks, plus Al*x J*nes had a meltdown over it and called us all warlocks or something which was frankly better than an Emmy nomination. Go watch!

Did y’all know that in 1978 there was an ABC tv movie called “The Initiation of Sarah” in which a college sorority pledge discovers she’s a witch thanks to her evil house mother played by Shelley Winters and then this happens to Morgan Fairchild?

Today’s Spooky Sunday pairing is a very easy Chocolate Cobbler recipe and an achingly frightening haunted house film, 1980’s “The Changeling.” andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

It may be 1000 degrees in LA, but this Spooky Sunday, we’re conjuring up an autumn chill with Disney’s most nightmarish foray into horror along with a very back-to-school cookie recipe! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

My Brain: Ok, let’s get back to work. My Laptop Screen:

And what did YOU do today??

Real weird film/dessert pairing today! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

I’m always saying this

Today’s my birthday, so as a little treat to myself, y’all know I had to write about “Monster Squad.” andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

If your MRI tech looks at you like this, he is UP TO SOMETHING.

This week’s “Spooky Sunday” brings a little much needed gloom to your sun-soaked July! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

Yeah, I like A24. (A wicked smile creeps across my face) A 24-hour Denny’s!

New “Spooky Sunday” is up! Including my favorite cookie recipe! open.substack.com/pub/andrewdu...

Me when i have a totally normal exchange with a friend

you all did your cute movie ballots, now you can cancel your subscriptions!!

Hey LA! I’m filming my solo show “I Don’t Wanna Scare You” at The Elysian on July 21st! It’s a cozy little night of scary jokes and funny ghost stories and I truly love performing it for folks, so it’d be a real treat to have you there! Tix available now! www.elysiantheater.com/shows/andrew...

Listen. I know travel is hard. And eccentricity is fun. But if you’re on a red eye flight. And you have a wild-ass sneeze. I’m asking you to “normal” it up even 30%. Cuz I can’t do this “WACKweeweewee” thing every few minutes over the next 6.5 hours.

What a normal, not silly name for a town.

It’s Pride so to give back to my community I wrote a complete guide to what’s gay about each and every Universal Monster. Please enjoy and/or educate yourself! andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/whats-gay-...

Not proud to admit that when I got stung by a bee as an adult, I shouted “OW, YOU NERD!”

Just saw a grocery store employee deep in thought, reading an official looking binder. When I walked behind him, I discovered he was on the “Pumpkin pricing chart” page and for the first time in my life I said “Right on, brother.”

Every Spooky Sunday this Pride Month, I’ll be focusing on queer horror films! We’re kicking off with the terrifying and sexy “Stranger by the Lake” (along with a very tempting strawberry cake recipe). andrewduncanfarmer.substack.com/p/spooky-sun...

Hey instead of upending wheelchairs to see if people are scamming you why don’t you try to get the film industry back in this country or better yet fall in a big smooth-walled hole

When I was a very little kid, at church I would spend most of my time drawing monsters. Finally my mom made a rule that during Mass, I could only draw religious figures. So I drew The Wolf Man genuflecting at the crucifixion.

Inspired by Mission Impossible, from now on whenever someone’s mad at me, my go-to defense is gonna be “This is exactly what The Entity wants! To divide us!”
