if you really want to rip on Portland you should start with how busy breakfast places are at 9:30 on a weekday

I recommend the entirety of the late '80s/early '90s horror anthology series MONSTERS, but if you just had to watch one episode for Halloween, I'd go with "The Match Game". 🔥

My words about this episode.

‘The Match Game’ – Add This Creepy ‘Monsters’ Episode to Your Halloween Watchlist

The doors on Tales from the Darkside had barely closed before producer Richard P. Rubinstein debuted a new horror anthology series in 1988. And for three seasons, Monsters ditched the nebulous act of ...

“Ms. Pine Brook Falls 1982” from one of my favorite corpse party reveals, Return to Horror High. Acrylic on Canvas! One more day until my pop-up, Back of the Video Store II”

A painting of a perfect beauty Queen, too stunning to know she’s passed on. Flowers in her hair and a good relationship with the local spiders. Look at that smile! Also she is a skeleton.

That’s all I ever want on Halloween or new years, unless I’m invited to a cabin in the woods, which is what I want most days of the year!

I wrote some upsetting and funny horror books!

1. SUMMER IS ENDED: Slasher movies always forget summer camps are filled with children.

2. UNDEAD GRANDMOTHER: Family can forgive, but let's make it gross enough so the reader won't!

For better or worse, the trilogy almost never gets rented from the store. 🤷🏻‍♂️🎃

On this day in Horror History, DEMONS 2 was released in 1986.

A scary demon with red eyes and big teeth.

This one was too upsetting for me.

You know how people say “a lot of blood, sweat, and tears” went into making something? Well, with the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards, that’s doubly true. I’m so proud of this show and our team who took this above and beyond…to space! Can’t wait for you to check it out! Oct 19th On Shudder!!!

At first I thought of the compact episode of Friday the 13th series!

Jason Edward Davis @jasonedwarddavis.bsky.social · 1d

Not necessarily the first, but I’ve always been vocal about being the second or third. I investigate every sound, wander away from groups, and love making out on midnight walks into the woods/cemeteries/abandoned buildings. Also I was born to be a great ghost.

More so? But also a weird remake of Knock Knock, Death Games.

“Stage Presence” acrylic on canvas, inspired by the not great movie “Can I do it ‘til I Need Glasses” 1977

A painting of the futures brightest and bestest standing on a stage, looking forward their future with limitless possibilities ahead of them. Also, their shirts spell out Fuck You. One of these is a ghost. I’m not saying which one!

Awesome!!

Last night I got to see one of my favorite annual short films lineup @finalgirlsberlin.bsky.social at the @hollywoodtheatre.org! This year’s films included The Blue Diamond with a delightful performance by @barbaracrampton.bsky.social and SHÉ (SNAKE) by animator/director Renee Zhan that floored me!

It’s sex month- I mean, monster month

Photo of two deeply sexual Paperback Paradise bookmarks. First one reads i only like books that haveGraphic SkeletonSeX Scenes’ accompanied by a woman and a skeleton making out with additional text:
‘aw hell yeah — this is what i'm talkin' about’

Second bookmark features a slyly sexual demon winking at you with the text:
GO AHEAD
slide this bookmark in between them pages all the way down to the crack of that spine cause you know i'm a damn
