When the Link Dump Stands Tall
The Raven’s Chamber – Commissioned steampunk cabinet/sculpture which resembles some arcane piece of equipment from a mad scientist’s lab.
All Along the Wall – A spooky holiday comic by Emily Carroll.
Absinthe Fruhstuck – This really should be a real product. (Hat tip to Pixel Pixie)
Furry Furniture – The Hass Brothers create interestingly Seussian-looking furniture that appears to be some sort of furry animals.
Sarlacc Bundt Cake – The madeleine “maw” would look great as a carnivorous venus flytrap-looking monster too.
First Bite – Animated vampire tale based on an original 18th Century written account from the Balkans. The vampire in question is decidedly not sexy.
The Nightshade Society – If you’re going to the 2015 Steampunk World’s Fair, there’s a “dark Victoriana” track.
gruntle.me – The antidote to disgruntlement. (Not even faintly goth; I was just amused at the idea of gruntlement.)
Victorian Burlesque Dancers – There’s some great costume inspiration in this vintage photos.
Casebook: Jack the Ripper – Site which claims to be “the world’s largest public repository of Ripper-related information.”

I just picked up Emily Carroll’s new book, Through The Woods. Five charmingly drawn chilling tales, including His Face All Red, which you can also read here:

Happy New Year!

I love the random Excalibur. Like, “What do I want as a statement piece in my living room? Hmm, something with ravens and stuff. Maybe steampunk. But…I have this big ol’ sword I bought when I didn’t have any money in college but I thought it’d be cool in my dorm. So…maybe incorporate that?”
OMGs, I totally want to find a DIY Cherrios recipe and add wormwood and licorice flavoring to it. And green food coloring.
Vampires can be determined by hair and nails growing on a corpse. I mean. I know that I can’t expect medieval peasants to understand what happens to a corpse, but…every corpse? Man, to’ve lived in Transylvania must’ve been terrifying.
Ah, to be regruntled!
