@vampystarry.bsky.social Mika you don't need to repost every bat post of mine my notifications are going crazy 🙏🏼

'Couchus' seems more fitting.

Just a gaggle of nocturnal winged creatures and cleaning tools loitering around! 🦇🧹 #bat #handmade #pillow #bats #broomsticks #halloween #batty #shopsmall #theoccasionalbat #etsy #batshapedpillow 🧹🦇 theoccasionalbat.ets...

For a movie that’s 35 years old, Dick Tracy’s make up & prosthetic artists did a fantastic job on the outlandish Dick Tracy villains that still holds up.

I see what's going on in the world, and sometimes I wanna release my anger, frustration and pure distain. I sometimes write out posts, read them back, and delete. Nobody needs to see my angry side. But y'all need need to know. I'm fucking fuming! 😡😤🤬

Lucio Fulci's giallo masterpiece 'Don't Torture A Duckling' was released #OTD 29th September 1972 (Italy) 🎥🇮🇹🖤 The pic on the right is a tattoo I had done back in 2022 🎨🐥✌🏻

@afizgig.bsky.social More filmed there than I'd remembered. Lovely place to visit mate. I went there purely on the off chance with my dad - the owners didn't let us inside which was fine but we had a good look around the grounds which were so serene. www.google.com/search?clien...

It's my monthly(ish) 'maybe if I mention my book some people might buy it' post. If you are partial to spooky tales in which rotten types discover uppences are come (okay, that doesn't work), or - as quoted - "enjoy quintessentially British ghost stories and weird tales", I think you'll enjoy.

I'll bump this again as we get closer to Halloween 🎃, there's enough horror-loving people on here it might generate a sale or two. I have neither the marketing budget - nor the bandwidth - for much more right now, but I do believe in this as a great collection of varied and entertaining stories.

I really enjoy getting the chance to pen booklets for physical media labels, and it's been a little while since I have been this productive - four titles announced this month that have my scribble-work! (Note: this really is not "adult content" whatever Bsky says!!)

We're at £890! Anyone fancy tipping us over £900 today? The e-book pledge is just £10!

#NW THE STEPFATHER (1987) 🎥 dir. Joseph Ruben 'After murdering his entire family, a man marries a widow with a teenage daughter in another town and prepares to do it all over again'
