Maybe the incantation failed because you didn't really mean what you were chanting, Susan.

I wrote a spec script for Child's Play 2 when I was nine years old. So, yeah. Halloween is kind of my thing.

Recent reads perfect for Oct. Joe Hill’s genre-bending King Sorrow: an evil dragon story that’s not really about the dragon. And the collection I Know A Place by @natcassidy.bsky.social. Highly recommended for short stories that run the gamut from introspective isolation horror to gloopy gore.

Who would win in a fight between a vampire bat and a bat-sized mosquito? Keep in mind, they're both vegan.

I haven’t heard that super popular song because I’ve mostly been listening to Tim Maia’s “Racional” Brazilian samba funk albums he wrote when he was part of the Rational Culture UFO cult.

Trust me. Nothing good ever happens after midnight behind the haunted Walgreens. But if you'd like to see a poltergeist that smells like Gold Bond medicated powder, be my guest.

Y'all ready to do some good this week? How I'd Fix Atlanta has once again partnered with Undue Medical Debt to help out a bunch of our neighbors. As always, we need your help. Please give what you can and tell everyone you know. unduemedicaldebt.org/campaign/whe...

When Good Georgians Get Together, Great Things Happen
How I’d Fix Atlanta was a free monthly essay series for four years. It’s been a couple of print zines and a performance on a stage a few times. Quite often, it’s stickers.

Today's 5am listen is Gorillaz' 2018 album The Now Now. More of a Damon Albarn solo album, with less collaborations than other Gorillaz albums. But George Benson's instantly recognizable guitar makes Humility a standout, along with concert staple Tranz, funky Sorcererz and album closer Souk Eye.

RIP to Gerritt Graham, who gave incredible performances over multiple decades, but who will live forever in my heart as the bitchy glam rock icon Beef. Quite simply impossible to imagine another actor in the part. A master.
