Oh, btw - I did end up getting a couple boxes. Halloween is saved!

Is everyone enjoying their cozy sweaters? Taking a sip of that hot apple cider? PSL warming your chilly tummy? Having a real good Autumnal time, are ya?

Watching Backrooms elisited a similar feeling to looking at house listing lately. Here is a "house" but ONE thing is going be weird. Unlike looking at house listings, I really enjoyed the movie.

My favorite part was when Pinhead came out of the closet and went "Argh!" Just like in the movies.

The future is wild! I can play the 1st Castlevania game on my phone BUT I need a high-powered magnifying glass to see anything! AMAZING.

BREAKING NEWS: It is nearing the end of September and I still haven't bought a box of Count Chocula.

Didn't really think that Amazing Digital Circus would be for me, but after watching the Haunted House episode - I'm all in.

My landlord, who is selling the property, has specifically asked that we not go crazy decorating for Halloween as to not scare away any potential buyers (I guess). My landlord, October 2nd:

Wasn't expecting Resident Evil to be so 80's monster movie coded. Loved it!

Drawing a Christmas-y horror story in mid-September feels REAL weird. Comics - amirite?

Drew Rausch @drewrausch.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Cool. Let me know when single player is more than just a tutorial. The last time I played a Michael Myers with other people was Dead By Daylight. I got yelled at by 13 year olds for "cheating" when the game was over. So I won't be doing THAT again.

A commission I recently completed for a local haunted display, The Farm Haunt.

A dry, crusty scarecrow swaying in the breeze, its hat blowing off. Four smiling jack o' lanterns are on top of a plank of wood that reads "The Patch". In the background, the title reads "The Farm Haunt." Under the plank, it reads "10 Year Anniversary 2026".

It's September 1st. That means we are legally close enough to start celebrating Halloween. RELEASE THE SKELETONS!

My social circle has gotten so small, it's gone inverted. Just me and a choice few skeletons who wear their guts on the outside, having a barbecue, complaining about how hot it is.

A few t-shirt designs I made for AdamJessFX. These guys make the BEST props and pumpkins. Love their characters, and I'm looking forward to working with them some more!

Two scarecrows towering over a stack of jack o' lanterns. Colors are green and orange.

A trio of jittery blank faced characters wearing tan rags and stumbling out of a decrepit barn past a jack o' lantern on a crate into a cornfield. The text reads "Corn Creeps"

A gruesome had bleeding green goo out of her eyes and bucktoothed mouth, surrounded by orange leaves. The colors are primarily shades of purple. The text reads Cellar Witch.

House buying is so complicated. It's exhausting! I don't know how ghosts do it. I mean, I guess I could find a place I like and, I dunno, just pass away in there, but that doesn't really seem ideal either.

Drew Rausch @drewrausch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

But what if, instead of streaming some horror trash, I just curled myself up into a ball and stared at a CRT TV playing distorted static to fix me?

The actual act of scraping is one thing but the amount of hubris on display here is sickening.

I, for the life of me, can not understand why anyone would want to work on this. Please make new things.

I should have posted this last night, but I was DEAD tired. We survived another year of @midsummerscream.bsky.social . This would be our 10th year vending at this show; as always, it was great seeing friends, meeting new faces, and being surrounded by spooky vibes.

The final day of @midsummerscream.bsky.social - the ghosts have escaped and they brought brand new prints! Come get yours at BOOth # 671!

Three new halloween prints displayed - a skull with a glowing jack o lantern face coming out of its head, a frog witch and a pumpkin jester.

First day of Midsummer Scream was... overwhelming. My bones already feel thrashed. (It was only 4 hours.) A guy was flipping through my comics and said "You should make zines!"

The veil between our world and @midsummerscream.bsky.social is thinning. Starting tomorrow night, come get sucked into our autumnal vortex at Booth #671, where you can flip through new comics/ books, prints, stickers, and other such Halloween-y things made with my own boney hands.

PREORDERS are OPEN! I am super proud and happy with this party game -- really the first one I've designed/produced. Shipping should start in late September just in time for spooky season. LINK HERE: vampire-farts-card-game.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

It's weird how you can Yelp "Best Abandoned Buildings" in your area and then, I don't know just take an Uber. "This haunted space only has no ghost activity and the only satanic graffiti reads SATAN RULES! EAT A BAG OF DICKS! and then that weird highschool S scribble." 2 stars.

The Venn diagram between Zach Snyder bros and Eli Roth defenders is a flat circle. So much wasted energy on something so forgettable.

Painting some Grave Frames ™ for @midsummerscream.bsky.social . These will fit 5 x 7 prints after they've been properly haunted.

Three hand-carved frames, one with a skull and wings, a bat and some swirly details, and another with a skull, wings and swirls - all painted with a stoney texture.

I want to be so overstimulated that my mind and all sense of reason leaves my body, forcing me to detach from reality. If only there was a place where this would happen.

A hundred days left until Halloween and Mondo announces these guys. I feel as though the universe it trying to tell me something.

ANNOUNCEMENT! Thrilled to be back in the Long Beach Convention Center, haunting the shadows of Midsummer Scream this August 7 -9th. I'm bringing my spooky seasonally appropriate themed comics, stickers, prints, and a few new terrors! Let's make this year so big that the Halloween gods notice again!

I read somewhere that Doug Bradley is "reprising his role as Pinhead" for Universal's Horror Night Hellraiser maze and I know its probably voice overlays but I think it would be great if he got all dressed up to jumpscare some teenagers for a month cause he was bored.
