BACK<\/a> – A western\/fantasy webcomic “about the end of the world. Not post apocalyptic just the end of it all.” There’s an alternate Tumblr feed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Christopher McKenney<\/a> – This photographer calls himself a “horror surrealist.” His works are both lovely and really unsettling.<\/p>\n

Les Vampires Oracle Cards<\/a> – “Ancient Wisdom and healing messages from the Children of the Night.” Doll-like vampires with beestung lips help divine your future. There are other decks by the same artist: Oracle of the Shapeshifters<\/a> and Oracle of Shadows and Light<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Zombie Apocalypse Engagement Photo Shoot<\/a> – Fun themed photo shoot.<\/p>\n

31 Days of Halloween Parties<\/a> – Site with a couple of years’ worth of party ideas; it hasn’t been updated since 2012, but there are some useful links.<\/p>\n

55 Words<\/a> – I sort of love the idea of dinosaur ghosts.<\/p>\n

Eye Heart Spleen<\/a> – Pretty photo series of flowers arranged to look like human organs.<\/p>\n

Improved Thrift Store Paintings<\/a> – Artist Chris McMahon buys cheap paintings and “improves” them with monsters. They are utterly wonderful. (Hat tip to Pixel Pixie)<\/i><\/p>\n

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them<\/a> – There is going to be a Harry Potter spin-off movie. Color me unsurprised.<\/p>\n

Biology of Mermaids<\/a> – Famed oceanographer Karl Banse has written a “serious” (in the sense of humor written with a straight face, rather than actual belief) scientific treatise on mermaids. A PDF of the full paper is here<\/a>.

\np.s. \u2013 I’m going to be dragged, kicking and shrieking, away from the computer for a week. Due to the magic of advance scheduling blog posts will continue as usual, but if you email and I don’t respond I’m not ignoring you. (Or am I<\/em>? Muwahahahaha.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
