To avoid any confusion, I can confirm that the Dracula in Hotel Dracula is a Confirmed Dracula, same one Stoker wrote about.

Theres a lot of new bits in this newsletter post/blog that builds on the SRD. One of my favorite things that Josh wrote for the Deluxe Edition/SRD is the Horror templates. These provide such a strong starting point by using archetypes as a means of laying the foundation for your own monsters.

Welcome fresh Liminal Horror modules from @goblinarchives.itch.io + @spacepenguinink.bsky.social + Seth Ian
🐝The Parthenogenesis of Hungry Hollow - body horror bee cult!
🧸Playthings - a surreal escape challenge for a box of sentient toys
🛍️The Mall Remastered - a 90s mall with a sinister oozing twist

The cover of The Parthenogenesis of Hungry Hollow, a hardbound book with a yellow title in 70's-inspired cinematic font (like a movie poster). The rest of the cover is an oil painting-like illustration of a pregnant woman in a yellow dress standing in a wooded clearing, turning toward the viewer. In the distance behind her, two people in apiarist outfits release bees from a wooden box-style beehive

The cover of Playthings by Seth Ian for use with Liminal Horror. The title appears in childlike crayon-rainbow font. The central image is a head made of a mashup of half a Barbie face, a skull, part of a stuffed animal, and a GI Joe's helmet. The head floats against a blue sky-like background

The cover of The Mall, a module for Liminal Horror. The entire cover is a graphic novel-style, detailed black and white ink illustration of a decrepit, blood-stained mall hallway. Bad things have happened here but now all is relatively quiet. There's slimy ooze crawling out of the roll-down gate of a closed store, twisted mannequins (including one stepping out of a shattered display window), and more ooze slinking above, along the hanging banners that would have advertised sales

We restocked some faves from @goblinarchives.itch.io + @unenthuser.bsky.social + @thetylerwelch.bsky.social, too. Welcome back:
🍄‍🟫The Bloom, malevolent fungus meets quiet lakeside town
👁️One Night at Shelterwood Inn, an ancient evil beneath the motel
🚢Ex Inferis, an earthly homage to Event Horizon

The cover of The Bloom, A module for Liminal Horror by Josh Domanski and Goblin Archives. A faux-weathered black and white background with the title in all san-serif caps. A red stripe through the middle of the cover contains the other text as well as white illustrations of mushrooms

The cover to One Night at the Shelterwood Inn, a Liminal Horror & Triangle Agency crossover Reality by Josh Domanski, Goblin Archives, Sean Ireland, and Caleb Zane Huett. The image is a lighted MOTEL sign, in red, glowing in the darkness with mountains in the background

The cover of Ex Inferis by Tyler Welch and illustrated by BoRyan Crum. A graphic novel-style realistic illustration of a shipping vessel sailing under calm, pink skies and blue clouds

In October 1999, four teenaged sleuths and their Great Dane got lost in the woods while in search of a mystery. This is their story.

A small list of horror movies I've been digging lately

I've been really loving the weirder stuff

1. Messiah of Evil. A woman is trying to find her missing artist father in a miserably weird little seaside town. Things get eldritch and no one is safe.

BEST PART:
The GROCERY STORE SCENE

2. Dead and Buried

Sherif of a normally nice town has to deal with an abnormal number of murders that seem to have no motive. Something weird and nasty is going on. The last 10 minutes made me sick!

Best part: the ending definitely.
