Finally had time to finish The Clown King by @calmtomb.bsky.social. Happy endings? Not here. Every ending is frozen in a sickly yellow amber of dread, despair and horror. Highly recommend this unique collection of terror tales!

Your lead singer name is the last thing you drank and how you’ll die (which you saw in a crystal ball while visiting a one-eyed fortune teller at the fair on the outskirts of town). I’ll go first:

In addition to Treasure Island most likely influencing @stephenking.bsky.social's IT (The Black Spot, deadlights), could there also be A Dark Tower influence in A Confederacy Of Dunces?

Didn't even notice @ethanembry.bsky.social in there at first. Very cool that this filmed around Atlanta, including my hometown of Douglasville.
Fun Fact: The Scream TV show also filmed in Douglasville at my high school.
