Ballpoint pen and colored pencil. 

At the top of the piece we see the delicately drawn branches and leaves of an apple tree. Just beneath the tree limbs, a bat is flying with one of the green apples in its mouth. This is when the morphing begins, reader. A sequence of 13 drawings show the bat morphing into a teeny witch (with completion of the morph around drawing #9). The morphing creates a spiral leading us to the center of the page where the little witch is running towards her basket filled with apples. It’s likely she’ll re-morph into a bat again and the morphing pattern will continue.

Spooky bird stories. My Halloween comic from 2024.
A comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, A screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".

While some purists restrict the "OSR" label to games emulating OD&D and/or Mentzer Basic, others consider anything from the hobby's first decade fair game; thus, having first been published only six years after OD&D, under the broader definition you could technically write an OSR game based on this:
The cover of "Dallas: The Television Roleplaying Game", a licensed RPG based on the 1978 American prime time soap opera of the same name. The cover depicts Larry Hagman in the role of J R Ewing, dressed in a business suit and a large cowboy hat, surrounded by inset photos of the remainder of the show's principal cast. The cover's promotional blurb reads "All the drama and power, the wheeling and dealing, the loves and lives of TV's greatest family are yours to enact in this fun-filled, fast-playing game."

OC ReMix #4945: Friday the 13th "You and Your Friends Are Dead." by Juan Medrano

https://ocremix.org/remix/OCR04945

Trick or treat!!! It's a bit of both, as I've outsourced this year's Halloween writeups to the community-at-large, who came through in spades! (If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go as a team!) A tremendous THANK YOU to gravitygauntlet, Chimpazilla, minusworld, The Vodoú Queen, WiFiSunset, and Argle for taking time out, which has easily made this the biggest Halloween ReMix release day in OCR history! Enjoy this magnificent seven of vampire-, haunted castle-, hellride-, dystopia-, greedy-capitalist-, blood-drippingly-, hack-and-slash-appropriate VGM arrangements! :-)

Rounding out our treasure trove of macabre offerings is rock GAWD Juan Medrano with a lil' John Carpenter/Halloween influence on a DASTARDLY NES game, Friday the 13th! We've got Juan, we've got John, and now [/shrieks] we've got JASON! :-O I HATED this game as a kid, not for being bad... for being SCARY and stressful as shit! I could NEVER keep the kiddos or the camp counselors alive, ugh. Well, at least Juan says he had fun:

"Just a remix of the Friday the 13th cabin theme I started several years ago. Wanted an atmospheric, spooky 80s horror film sound with modern, heavy guitars. Pretty simple. Spooky rock/metal/whatev. As always, had a blast playing around with those vintage synth sounds."

The fun Juan had taking on this dark, forboding, earworming theme was noticed by judge prophetik music:

"opens with bells and some distant strings. big prototypically evil bass synth comes in soon after as well as some limited kit with loads of verb on it. [...] guitar comes in at 1:25 and sounds great, as expected. 2:18 the drum rhythm changes a bit and is more intense which is nice [...]

Ok, well, Wickhills by @premeemohamed.com is one of the best fantasy novels I've read in quite awhile so I'm going to go with that...probably for whoever is looking for fantasy at the moment.
portersquarebooks.com
Wickhills
In the dangerous magical city of Wickhills, a streetwise secret agent is tasked with protecting a foreign defector from his pursuers... even at the threat of war.Looking after a defecting scientist should have been Vycol Ferec's easiest mission. But now he's on the run from the intelligence agency he works for, dodging a handler who might have gone rogue and relying on a secret patchwork of illicit resources and dodgy contacts. Turns out his defector might be carrying an apocalypse-level magical weapon — and protecting it requires Ferec and his team to go underground, literally. Down here, the rules are very different... and the tense peace between every city in the world will shatter unless Ferec can drag their darkest secrets into the light.
