Ilia Malinin is a force to be reckoned with! 🔥

Malinin leads by over nine points and is poised to extend his win streak, while Isabeau Levito and pairs team Katie McBeath and Daniil Parkman both finished fourth on day two of Grand Prix de France.

The aesthetic of this show… I want to sip an aperitif in front of the crackling fire at Collinwood. #31DaysofHalloween

Treasured childhood memory: “Son of Svengoolie” on Saturday nights. Loved that show when I was a kid. And love that Rich Koz still keeps the character going now. #31DaysofHalloween

Title sequences don’t get much better than this one for The Devil Rides Out / The Devil’s Bride. As always, Hammer gives a master class in vibes. #31DaysofHalloween

Happy 10/13! 👽 Recently dug up artifacts from my first job: editor-in-chief of The X-Files Official Magazine for Twentieth Century Fox. I’ll create a more elaborate video soon. Once I realized the date, couldn’t pass up the opportunity for this little ditty. #31DaysofHalloween

If Bela Lugosi capitalized on his Dracula fame by opening a hipster art cafe and releasing a collection of antisocial beat poetry set to krautrock, this would be the album cover (followed by a few gatefold insets). #31DaysofHalloween

The kids at the local community center designed this “scarecrow” for Forest Park’s annual Invasion of the Scarecrows. And he’s the cutest! #31DaysofHalloween

Yes. Yes, I do consider this a makeover. Doesn’t everyone aspire to be a Spandex Demon? #31DaysofHalloween

Richard Butler, man. The swagger! Dude’s all over the stage, dropping into squats like he’s not pushing 70. I hadn’t seen the Furs since 2012. Didn’t know what to expect. Lived up. And the colors in the light show, too! Sublime.

If Frankenstein’s monster was a brooding post-punk musician who, after years of feeling misunderstood and suffocated, ditched his bandmates to record a collection of introspective, “suffering artist” dirges and thinly veiled diss tracks, this would be the album cover. #31DaysofHalloween

The amount of passion Gary Numan puts into his performance… Guys, seriously. You must experience this. It’s rapturous.

After I saw Labyrinth, I so badly wanted a goblin friend. I actually designed one. Named him Rayitees. And I’d draw him everywhere. He kinda looked like the last one you see in the video. #31DaysofHalloween
