The London Fortean Society’s The Haunted Landscape event is basically Spooky Christmas and a joy to attend each year. You can go in person at Conway Hall, or watch online, and if you’re into dark histories, strange beasts, urban legend and the downright weird, I urge you to bag a ticket.

Plus the old Polaroid photo/Egyptian Mail sucker punch trick is always good for a laugh.

Ah, but at least our hero gets to visit Italy.

And use Ming vases as weapons!

“That was a Ming vase, 2nd dynasty. Absolutely priceless.”

Seems the perfect time to migrate and expand an old Twitter thread of mine about the greatest art heist of the twentieth century...

'INDIANA WHO: CRUSADE OF DEATH!' An adventure in art-theft starring Julian Glover... and Julian Glover.
