War is target fixation. War is concrete cicatrix. War is an unbanishable ghost. Hookland knows this. It pillboxes remain manifestations of invasion fears. The abandoned sound mirrors of its salt marshes still listen out for phantom planes. There is no psychic peace. – #DAKilory

It’s 186 years to the day since a man called Thomas O’Conor wrote a report about a stone figure on a church in Kiltinane, County Tipperary. This would be unremarkable were it not for what the statue looked like, because this was the first written use of the term Sheela-na-gig

When in Prague, visit one of the few surviving medieval bollards, made to protect buildings from careening market wagons. This guy is around 600 years old...

Today is Michaelmas Day which marks the day in the calendar after which you shouldn’t pick or eat blackberries. Depending on your regional bent, folklore tells that on this day the devil fell out of heaven and landed in a blackberry bush, cursing them in fury…

"On and on he came, until at last he towered above me, and I saw his face. The impression which it produced upon me was that of intense malignancy long baffled and now at last within reach of its desire. I believe I screamed aloud." - R H Malden, 'Between Sunset And Moonrise' #SpookySunday

A man throws up his arms in terror as a huge shadowy figure looms threateningly over him. This uncredited illustration from a 1936 anthology of weird fiction is actually for a story by Oswald Blakeston, hence the caption.

Last night I was asked if I have a favourite golem and which one is it. Interesting and more difficult question than I expected, from someone who had no idea that I wrote a whole dissertation about the golem. (He might have regretted asking when he was promptly sent a copy of my published essay...)

The whole point of humans as a sociable, tribal species is we should eject people like this, so they starve in the wilderness alone. There are consequences to sociopathic behaviour. Somehow the abstract idea of money has short circuited our basic evolutionary safeguards.
