I always think of the Hookland music scene when I re-read Poppy Z Brite’s Lost Souls.

Although, sinister AND hilarious you say? Piece of cake for The Birthday Party.

For me, this is a note perfect encapsulation of being an awkward teenage 80s goth. “Obsessive, deadpan and moribund…” 😆🖤

Few artists manage to be sinister and hilarious simultaneously, but Type O Negative pulled it off effortlessly (chortle)

The tangled dead, root-pulled from above and below, feel scratches upon long vanished, phantom flesh. Their fancy houses have become cells where they wait on visitors who never come. Necropolis bounded and more than half-forgotten, many of them ache for hell. – #CLNolan

I just finished listening to a horror podcast about the entirety of The X Files and they summarised the alien conspiracy lore. Suffice it to say, less would most definitely have been more!!

X Files Season One on dvd in the background, a beer named The Shapeshifter (with an image of a ufo, the cosmos and an alien being on the can) in the foreground
