I've just started reading Promethean Horrors and have immediately become completely obsessed with Hoffmann's The Sandman, a wonderful piece of early weird fiction. #weird #horror #anthology

Discovered this Mexican gothic masterpiece last week from 1959. Fernando Mendez's Black Pit of Dr M might not have the most fitting title but don't let that put you off. #gothic #horror #film

"How did the skeleton with no legs get to the party?"

"I don't know, how did the skeleton with no legs get to the party?"

"No, you have to answer it!"
