The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

Book review: How to Catch a Wild Viscount (a novella) by Tessa Dare. This one has some slight eerie/gothic vibes so not quite a Halloween novel but might give you a chill at some point? (in fact it was originally called The Legend of the Werestag? This was 4 ⭐ for me.

Book cover of How to Catch a Wild Viscount by Tessa Dare. An illustrated cover using a silhouette of a couple (man and woman) dancing in front of a huge moon which takes up most of hte page and the faint outline of tree tops below the moon. The title is in pink and the author name across the bottom.

🦇 30 days until Halloween... *Movie marquee and theatre display for Horror of Dracula (originally released as Dracula in the UK). Hammer Film Productions, 1958. 🎞

Horror of Dracula (1958)—originally released simply as Dracula in the United Kingdom—is a landmark British Gothic horror film directed by Terence Fisher. Produced by the legendary Hammer Film Productions, it is celebrated as the first vampire film ever shot in color (Technicolor/Eastmancolor). The movie catapulted Christopher Lee (as Count Dracula) and Peter Cushing (as Dr. Van Helsing) into global horror icons, redefining the vampire mythos with an unprecedented blend of vibrant color, visceral gore, and underlying sensuality.
