Horror and other things that make us happy...

MacabreSnob

I thought I'd clear the decayed remnants from my keyboard and make a delightful post for all you guys and ghouls on this brisk October night.  After many an inquiry, the topic is plain and simple: a baker's dozen of awesome horror films (in no particular order)  (and I wouldn't say any of these are 'family-friendly')  (well, maybe if you're that family in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre). 28 Days Later Candyman Feast Inside Alien (genre disambiguation, cut me some slack) Suspiria High Tension The Blair Witch Project Frontiere(s) Martyrs The Thing (1982) The Orphan Killer The Exorcism of Emily Rose...

Johnny a.k.a. "Big Daddy"

Big Daddy here. I was able to head out this past Saturday to visit the Wisconsin Fear Grounds to see the attraction recently rated #1 by "Haunted Attraction Magazine".

Real Investigators V.S. Other Investigators

GMPRG Christy

What I mean by this is many claim to be "a real paranormal investigator" but few are true to this term. If people are experiencing paranormal phenomena and are looking for a group to take your case these are things to be aware of and cautious about. I use the term "pro" and "con" for the fact that these terms can't be any more literal. Groups that use the "pro" guidlines for their group are "pros" those who go by the "con" guidlines are most likely "cons" and need to be stayed away from.   Pros - No charge (if...

Spooky Halloween Kit Kat

Halloween Hodgepodge

I checked out our Walgreens the other day to see if any Halloween merchandise yet. Currently the have half an isle stocked with Halloween candy and a few Disney characters in Halloween costumes on the top shelf.  I absolutely love when candy companies do more than just print a Halloween design on a large bag of regular wrapped candy, but actually do something fun with the candy itself. I spotted some Kit Kats with a ghost, pumpkin and pirate on the wrapper which said 1 of 4 Spooky bar designs, so of course I bought a couple. I've only opened...
