Thus concludes the Candy Witches 2026 flight. While her official route is over, she has been known to do some back tracking if she couldn't reach someone. She would like to thank everyone that makes her flight possible, everyone who believes in her, and all […] [Original post on universeodon.com]
An image of a classic spooky Halloween night setting centered around an old, two-story haunted house with glowing windows. A full, bright moon hangs in the dark sky, illuminating the scene. The main focal point is a large, dark, old-fashioned house, possibly a Victorian style, with multiple chimneys. Light spills warmly from its windows, providing a contrast to the night. High in the sky, a witch on a broomstick fly directly across the moon. In the foreground, a group is walking along a dirt path: a figure in a witch's costume (holding a broom), a person in a ghost costume, and a smaller person in a striped shirt and hat (perhaps a pirate or traditional Halloween kid's costume). Dozens of pumpkins and jack-o'-lanterns are scattered all over the yard and beyond the white picket fence. The yard is enclosed by a white picket fence, much of which looks slightly dilapidated. There are bare, gnarled trees on the left and right, adding to the eerie atmosphere. To the left of the house is a small outhouse or shed, and further back, a scarecrow figure is visible.

The Candy Witch has begun her flight home.
An image of a manicured garden or courtyard surrounded by stone and brick walls, a full moon visible in a cloudy night sky. In the background, there's an old, somewhat dilapidated mansion or spooky house. Several crows or ravens are flying in the sky. The most prominent figures are several white, ethereal spirits or ghosts floating through the air. They have long, flowing shrouds or robes and appear to be haunting the scene. Some look like they are reaching out. On the left, a close-up section of a brick building features a glowing window. Inside the window, a child is visible in bed, apparently asleep. The light emanating from this window contrasts sharply with the dark exterior.

A mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “Today Kyle Peterson took to Weird Non-Fictions TikTok to detail his encounter with the cenobites of hell and present the results of his investigation into the strange phenomena occurring on and around Trinity College in Dublin. He then launched into a 5-minute rant about a hidden cult of mystics among the students who worship a confectionery wicca priestess working towards an unknown end. He then speculated that this cult was likely tied to global efforts by a cabal of secret societies aimed at depopulating the earth and bringing about the end of civilization. He then declared that Darth H8er was the leader of this cult and that he had somehow tricked him into opening the lament configuration (which is why he lost the captured scarecrow) and that he would do everything in his power to bring Darth H8er to justice and stop his conspiracy once and for all. Darth H8er responded by reminding everyone, that Kyle doesn’t know what he is talking about and is in fact ‘a tool’. This led Kyle to post a slur filled rant that has since been deleted from Weird Non-Fictions TikTok. David Screed would later post a statement on Weird Non-Fictions main website to remind everyone that “We are Art Bell type conspiracy theorist, not Alex Jones type conspiracy theorist and we formally apologize for Mr. Peterson’s remarks.””

Last Call for summoning The Candy Witch :)
A woman in a purple dress and witches’ hat with long brown hair sits side saddle on a flying broom. She uses a wooden wand to cast a spell that causes a shower of Halloween candy to appear from small explosion in air. She has a knowing smile on her face and too her immediate left is a white owl perched on her broom who appears to be startled. The image seems to radiate magic.

The first part of mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “Today during a special Halloween edition of Weird Non-Fictions Slapcast!, Kyle Peterson presented his viewers with a puzzle box previously identified as “Bleeding Scholar-Weeping Fool”, and stated those patrons who donated at least €150, would be able to “help” him solve the box. After 45 minutes of conflicting instructions from the chat, he was able to open a hidden panel on the box which caused the lights in his apartment to go out (the streaming setup somehow remained online), another 40 minutes resulted in the box expanding to in empty cube and filling the room with the smell of vanilla, another 20 minutes of confused fumbling resulted in the box snapping shut, the distant sound of bells and chains securing him to his chair, as a bald pale woman in black leather robes with a large gash in her throat entered his apartment through a stone door that had suddenly appeared near his broom closet. “Normally, I would take you with me to sample the vast array of pleasures of my realm, but Eldrich knowledge has changed hands between witches, archive fees have been forgiven, and I have given my word not to harm you…too much, surrender your bauble to me and I will leave you to this impotent plane.” To which Kyle responded, “I would, but I can’t take off my pants,” this caused a hook to embed itself in his cheek. “Do not test me boy, as I grow board with this errand” she then cast her eyes on the cat carrier, “Aw there it is,” with a wave of her boney clawlike hands the cat carrier’s door opened and the tiny scarecrow emerged. The automaton then pulled a melted snickers bar from its pants and laid it across Kyles mechanical keyboard. “Come little one, your fate lays elsewhere.” “The second part of mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “As the Cenobite and tiny scarecrow turned to leave, she said “Give thanks to whatever gods you keep Kyle Peterson, as we shall never meet again” before the mysterious door closed and his apartment returned to normal. The chat was then flooded with accusations of AI slop, bad acting, and demands for refunds.”

A mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “Kyle Peterson (Mind Slap!/Slapcast!) has temporarily postponed the vivisection of the captured scarecrow, as he now says he has met a source who has knowledge of the tiny scarecrows purpose and creation. The source (whom met him at a coffee house) turned out to be a masked woman, who said while she could not speak the secrets of the captured scarecrow aloud, she could offer him a tool that would reveal them, she then pressed an ornate brass puzzle box into his hand, before fleeing the coffee house (and tripping on the side walk outside). After describing the encounter on Weird Non-Fictions TikTok, the comment section on the video subsequently identified the box as a LeMarchand original called “Bleeding Scholar-Weeping Fool.” Mr. Peterson would later inform Mind Slap!/Slapcast! Patrons that he would attempt to open the box before vivisecting the scarecrow.”

A mastodon by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “Weird Non-Fiction has just announced that after days of hunting, Kyle Peterson (Mind Slap! And Slapcast!) has managed to capture one of the tiny scarecrows that have been reportedly lurking on the Trinity college campus after dark. Mr. Peterson made the announcement on Weird Non-Fictions Instagram page and also announced that Mind Slap! and Slapcast! Patrons at the truth seeker level and above would be able to watch a live stream of the creature’s vivisection. The tiny scarecrow is currently being held in a cat carrier at an undisclosed location. In the days since the scarecrows capture, Mr. Peterson has claimed that masked figures on E-bikes have been stalking him through the streets of Dublin, he believes these masked riders are somehow tied to Darth H8er.”

Is now offering a monetary reward for the capture of one the tiny scarecrows that were recently reported on the trinity campus. When the Council of Venice reached out to David Screed for the specifics of this reward he responded, “I told Kyle he could set up an email address for tips, I did NOT authorize funds to pay for them! Weird Non-Fiction Media LLC will not honor any promises of compensation made by Mr. Peterson. Unless it’s related to the ‘big foot in the sewers’ video, that one’s been paying the bills for months.””

A Mastodon Post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “The following is an excerpt from Weird Non-Fiction’s new column, Mind Slap! by Kyle Peterson, “University campuses throughout Dublin have been reporting sightings of tiny scarecrow like automatons for the last 3 weeks. These creatures are most frequently sighted between 11:00pm and 3:00am on or around the Trinity college campus. These automatons are usually seen dancing, preforming acrobatics, or sparring with other automatons before exploding. The remains of these automatons are then usually recovered by either another nearby group of automatons or mysterious group of masked students. The affiliation of these students is unknown but an anonymous source has told Weird Non-Fiction that these automatons may be affiliated with another character that has appeared at Trinity, a self-styled extraterrestrial wizard named Darth H8er, from the planet Fuckin A. Local experts in the occult have also noted similarities to the “Candy Witch” phenomena. Weird Non-Fiction reached out to Darth H8er for comment, he declined. When told that this silence could be construed as creating a hostile environment for normal students on campus, he replied “Don’t hate me cuz I’m mystical Wizard, maybe if you drop that yee-yee ass Harry Potter shit, you’d get some witches in your tower or better yet, one of them might ask you to come churn her cauldron instead of that rogue or barbarian she’s fuckin with, Wizzzaaard!” Mind slap will have more on this story as it continues to develop.””

A Mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads: (Today the Candy Witch was seen seeking the counsel of a group of wise women in the Long Haul where the following conversation took place.) Sarah: Of course it’s not weird to be upset about them leaving, you raised them as much as we did. Emma: Only got in to Trinity because of the Star Wars ice cream party. Taught them to how properly study for an exam. Rebecca: Even had the coat fight with them, you only have the coat fight with your maternal figures. Sarah: You bring them into this world and you’re charged with bundling them against the cold and then they grow up and fight you about not freezing in the rain, its infuriating. Especially because I was damn good at bundling, had a whole selection of wee hats to keep his massive head warm, the lamb ears, the aviator cap, the shark that looked like it was eating his head. Emma: I remember the shark; the shark was adorable. Sarah: …then they start dressing themselves, and you can only remind them to take their coat and bit by bit they stop listening to you, till they leave and then they’re responsible for keeping themselves warm…*Sniffles* and he is so bad it.

A mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads "For the past week a mournful wail has been herd echoing through the woods and over the hills of Greenfield, local banshees have denied involvement. Some say a malevolent force has made the hanged man’s wood their home and is attempting to lure travelers to their deaths, others that it’s the sound of Gaia herself crying out as the world dies. But most say that it is the Candy Witch, waking from hibernation and discovering that for the first time in 8 years she is cult-less. No one is quite sure what it means to hear the Candy Witch cry, some say it heralds the end of the world, others that there will be no Halloween this year. But one sage said it means only the Candy Witch misses her cult, and the price of having a big heart is feeling things deeply, and that means she must let the world know that she is sad. When asked if there was anything that could be done to help the Candy Witch, the sage said only time (and possibly chocolate) can heal her broken heart."

A mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “A few days ago, I lay in bed trying to fall asleep in 32°C weather, as I drifted off, I had a terrible nightmare. In the sky above me there were thousands of angels and they all chanted "Libraries are as the shrine where all the relics of the ancient saints, full of true virtue, and all that without delusion or imposture are preserved and reposed.” And each of them clutched a book to their chest. Then there was a flash of light in the sky and a black sphere appeared and all of the angels were devoured by it. Then an enormous black skeleton dripping with oil emerged from the sphere and began devouring the city as the sky turned red. When it seemed, all was lost the skeleton collapsed and exploded in a shower of millions of glowing angels who vanished into the sky. Apparently, my dream was the start of a psychotic episode where I was wondering the city attempting to “save” the discarded books of Dublin. The lesson from all of this is to remain well hydrated during a heat wave and always check the concentration on your gummies before bed.”

A Mastodon post by Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “Source reported spotting the Candy Witch at the O'Connell Academy’s 2026 commencement ceremony. Attendees report that she was stoic throughout the ceremony except when one of her cultists crossed the stage, which caused her to cheer. After the ceremony, she posed for pictures with her cult before they presented her with 4 gifts.  A quilt with the Ukrainian word for Big Sister sewn into it, a hard drive containing high quality recording of one of her cultists singing covers of Pillow songs in addition to his version of walking in the air. A very large, and very intricate oil painting depicting the peace and tranquility of the Star Wars Ice Cream party of 2023 amidst the “Dumpster fire that is life on earth” and finally the completed Liber Dulciarum and the Halloween mask that her first cultist was wearing when he met her…this was what broke her. The thoughtful gifts caused the Candy Witch to break down into hysterical sobbing as she hugged her cult, which caused Sarah McGowan, Emma Kerry, and Rebecca and Angela McDonald, and Sofia Kovalenko, to also begin crying. It was only when Evan said that he couldn’t breathe that she let go. She only began to calm down when her special friend reminded her, that student housing in Dublin is a sad joke, and that the worst-case scenario was that they would show up once week during the school year trying to nostalgia their way into using the washing machine.”

A mastodon post from Yuuko that reads "And so, after sun down I found the shepherds that the host said I needed to find (they were with their sheep). So, I and a few of the others manifested above them, and suddenly they all started screaming, and I said “Stop screaming! This is a good thing that I need to tell you about! So, the host has put its heads together and we think we have found a way to fix everything that Adam and Eve broke. The host has made a meat puppet for itself in the city of David and as we understand it, if we put an aspect of ourselves into this meat puppet and it suffers and dies, that should fix everything that Adam and Eve broke. Because of how things work, the meat puppet had to be born and couldn’t just be manifested and because of everything that you guys broke, it could only be born from one very specific lady and she didn’t have a lot of choice in the matter, so she is kind of taking one for the team. The kid’s name is Josh, his mom is named Mary, they are staying in the manger behind an inn in the city while her husband (Joseph) is getting his tax shit sorted, we want you guys to go to the city of David and check in on Mary, Jo, and Josh. We are pretty proud of this solution and pretty sure it’s going fix to everything.” Then everyone else manifested and started hyping our work, and I was like “Peace out house monkeys, try not to mess this one up.”"

A woman in a purple dress and witches’ hat with long brown hair sits side saddle on a flying broom. She uses a wooden wand to cast a spell that causes a shower of Halloween candy to appear from small explosion in air. She has a knowing smile on her face and too her immediate left is a white owl perched on her broom who appears to be startled. The image seems to radiate magic.

As the argument began devolving into a fight, they did not see the group of tall pale figures materializing behind them. “So, you’re the one that killed my dealers.” The man growled as he seized Darth by the throat, the two Candy Warlocks would later identify these men as Vampires and who apparently worked with agents related to last year’s incident (https://shorturl.at/eexFa).” Before the assembled Vampires could feed, they were interrupted by a motorcycle that slid down the alley knocking several vampires to the ground as its rider dismounted and proceeded to unload several shotgun rounds into the assembled vampires before finally putting a pistol underneath the chin of the Vampire holding Darth and pulling the trigger. The last sound herd before Templar agents closed the area to the public was a woman screaming “EVAN NOAH MCGOWN WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT TAKING TEMPLAR EQUIPMENT!” (1/2)Darth H8er ultimately took responsibility for the botched operation, sparing the Candy Warlocks and rogue Candy Witch, and allowing them their freedom on Halloween. Darth himself was sentenced to 4 weeks’ confinement and a scolding that could be herd across the Atlantic. For sacrificing his own Halloween for the sake of others, the official Candy Witch awarded him his final miracle, thus completing his transformation into a Candy Warlock. Kyle Peterson (who was not apprehended by the Templar) having learned that Vampires do indeed exist is now more convinced than ever that Darth H8er is at the heart of most of the world’s woes and he has vowed to expose his crimes at any cost. Which he intends to do as Weird Non-fictions new columnist and EU correspondent. When reached for comment the free Candy Warlocks and the rogue Candy Witch stated simply that “Kyle is a tool”. (2/2)

A Mastodon post from Yuuko Shirakawa that reads “As Darth Ha8er left the little village behind, a second bike emerged from the fog, the conspiracy theorist from Darth’s last miracle had found him and was now babbling about how Darth Ha8er was trying to lower the worlds testosterone levels by making video game characters less attractive. Darth Ha8er responded to these accusations by saying “Fuckin seriously!? Leave me alone you cunt, I’m just spreading the Halloween vibes.”  Before this conversation could continue, a rogue Candy Witch appeared from the fog on an electric bike carrying two anima capacitors. She then shouted “Bananza!” discharged the capacitors and summoned the Ketamine Ape who proceeded to chase after the conspiracy theorist as Darth Ha8er and the rogue Candy Witch fled down a road that seemed to vanish in the fog. The *official* Candy Witch, granted Darth Ha8er his second Halloween related miracle. However, she was very disappointed in the rogue Candy Witch who not only “borrowed” two anima capacitors but also summoned the Ketamine Ape and set his rehab back several weeks…The Ketamine Ape was found 4 hours later in a nearby pasture, cuddling a sheep next to a very confused border collie who was trying her best to guide him through a bad trip. “

A Mastodon post from Yuuko Shirakawa that reads: Today outside the O'Connell academy, a local evangelist handing out anti Halloween flyers, was confronted by a masked figure that identified himself as...*sigh* Darth Ha8er from the planet Fukin A, who told the man "take that shit back to the states and leave people be". When the asked what he was going to do about it, Darth Ha8er threw a carved turnip at the man's head which then exploded into la shower of Candy to the delight of local students as Darth Ha8er fled the scene.  However before Darth Ha8er could complete his escape, he was ambushed by a student recording him on his phone. The Student claimed that Darth Ha8er was physical evidence of the existence of wide range of conspiracy theories from the existence of a network of shadowy cabals that control the world, to the existence of cryptids, to the idea that Candy Witch is a just librarian that works for an organization tasked with hiding these truths from the world. Darth Ha8er was able to escape thanks to the intervention of nearby teacher and the Candy Witch granted him his first Halloween related miracle...though she suspects that he may need assistance completing the other two tasks.

The Council of Venice would like to remind all active agents that the ban on summoning the ketamine ape, is enforced via the honor system. Please do not ruin it for everyone by exploiting a technicality.
A tumbler post from user john-boneman-lich-lord that reads “ “Summon ketamine ape is a banned spell” fuck it fine whatever, I summon a normal gorilla. I summon some ketamine”

After a lot of careful thought, Connar (@Xencraft) and I decided that it wasn't safe to go to Comic Con this year. So there will be no vacation photos this year, but I will be posting and reposting pictures from others who were able to attend safely, such as this one from IO9 during preview night :)

You can tell it's spring in town when you start to see air drying again
a clothesline strung across what appears to be a backyard or garden. Several stuffed animals are hanging from the clothesline using clothespins. From left to right, I can identify:     A small white unicorn with a pink mane and tail.     A gray stuffed cat     A stuffed white reindeer animal wearing a red and blue dress.     A light brown teddy bear with a scarf.     A small yellow teddy bear.     A light pink cloth hanging with a small white stuffed rabbit inside.     A larger light brown teddy bear wearing a white t-shirt.     A light brown stuffed cat.     A fluffy white stuffed dog with brown ears. The background shows a wooden fence, green bushes, trees, and a blue sky. It looks like the stuffed animals have been washed and are hanging out to dry

The Council of Venice would like to remind its human and cryptid agents that it runs weekly workshops on how to handle these types of situations. The council can also provide referrals to licensed therapists on request (Comic by Cartumante)
A comic in which a werewolf enters a woman’s bedroom, through an open window. He says, “You shouldn’t have left your window open, now I will kill you”, in the next panel a woman in her night gown stands smiling at the confused werewolf, looking at her bookcase. In the next panel we get a close u p look of her bookshelf which contains several books titled “Monster Fuck II the princess and the orc”, “Monster Fuck III the princess and the dragon”, “Twilight” and “Beauty and the beast”, next to the book are two bad dragon sex toys. In the panel directly underneath, we get clear view of a poster underneath her bookshelf is a poster of nude woman embracing a werewolf. In the next panel the werewolf says, “Opps I think I missed the mark, I’ll be going now”, to which the woman responds “No”, before locking her window in the final panel and saying, “you stay.”
