The Lost People of Angikuni Lake
November 1930. The wind screamed across the frozen plains of what was then the Northwest Territories of Canada — a desolate and unforgiving landscape that would later become part of Nunavut. A lone fur trapper named Joe Labelle was making his way through deep snow toward an Inuit settlement he’d visited before, seeking shelter from the harsh cold. What he found there stopped him dead.

The Sixtieth Second
The Sixtieth Second The evening of December 31, 2025 wasn’t like any other. A weird sense of foreboding lay over the world—not an exhilaration at new beginnings, but a kind of boniness in the air; like when there’s this too-silent hush before news comes down that shatters everything. Millions gathered in Times Square and throughout the world’s capitals. But from a screen in his darkened bedroom, Adam had watched the festivities with an unplaceable dread.

The Echoing Asylum of Silaos: Where the Patients Never Left | SEASON FINALE
Chatpter 10 CHRONICLER’S LOG: A recovered page from Father Elias’s final journal is stained with what appears to be a black, oily substance. The handwriting is erratic and panicked. The entry describes the Queen as a 'psychic virus,' a gestalt entity composed of every soul that has been broken within the asylum. Its goal is not to possess, but to assimilate.

Dracula in Instanbul
Not a turkey but from Turkey. Snappy title, no? Dracula in Istanbul is a 1953 Turkish production that is stark, grainy, lost, and has that air of being more a museum piece curiosity than an actual piece geared toward entertainment. But, alas, it's not a bad picture, if a dated one.

Looking through Glass. Content Warning.
Darkness. Everywhere, darkness. I can't open my eyes! Why can't I open my eyes? My eyes feel like they're sewn shut, but I think they're just caked with something that's tearing out my eyelashes when I try to pry them open. Same difference in the moment, big difference in the end. My clumsy, cold fingertips claw at the crust until the tears flow freely and I can see reasonably well through the deluge.

The Monster You Don't. Content Warning.
There was only one rule: don’t open the door. The premise of the game was simple. Contestants were placed in a colosseum with an unlocked exit door and a bloodthirsty monster for twenty-four hours.

Oh How She Hungers
Light cast through the church, as if God was reaching a hand into the space to remind the few lingering congregation members of the Heavenly embrace that resided upon them. Its glow passed through the stained glass windows, and landed upon the hung head of the statue of Jesus upon the cross.

I'm Sad We Will Never Get a Rated - R Jurassic Park
I recently started reading the Jurassic Park book, that I had no idea existed. I only read a couple of chapters, and now I'm so sad that we are never going to get a Rated - R Jurassic Park. The book starts off so strong, and I couldn't believe how violent these deaths were.

The Valley of Glass Flowers
Silas had followed the old prospector's map for two weeks, dust caked to his lungs, sun beating down on his worn hat. The old man, half-mad with fever, had whispered about a "valley of glass flowers" before he finally checked out in that ramshackle clinic in Dust Devil Gulch. Silas didn't believe in magic, not really, but the glint in the dying man's eye, the sheer conviction, it had lodged itself somewhere behind Silas’s ribs. And hell, anything was better than another busted claim in the blistering heat. This valley, the map claimed, lay beyond the Devil’s Tooth, a jagged peak nobody much bothered to climb anymore.

Chapter 7 FATHER ELIAS’S JOURNAL: Entry 3: The Queen is not a demon, but a soul. A very angry, very vengeful soul. She is the mother of the asylum.

The Bug Attack from King Kong (2005) Will Traumatize Me Forever
I'm one of those horror fans who is a massive fan of the Monsterverse of Godzilla and King Kong. I have watched so many of these films already, and really enjoyed how brutal these beasts can be, going after anyone that would dare to mess with them.
