new ghosts

a man in shadow, stepping into light. his obscured face is stretched and warped

a misty, skull-like visage. one eye hole is a socket, the other is like a hole in a mask a frantic eye is peering through

a dog-like figure with a bald, grinning human head balanced sideways on its neck

a sepia toned screaming man, his upper head drifting into a white blur

Couldn't be happier to be working on a horror comic with it's roots in vintage arcades and have the talents of @scarredforlife.bsky.social onboard to help bring this horror to life.
Truly a Halloween treat 🎃🕹️

Hey thanks so much @philbybear.bsky.social ! That art style is thanks to the incredible work of Scott E Supple of Teebowah Games (sadly not on here) but the man is a pixel art genius.

Good question! I personally think Rye feels spookier. But there’s a great book by Griselda Mussett who goes into the Faversham ones in great detail

A fantastic eve of ghost stories at The Alex Faversham ( in the most haunted town in Britain ) narrated by the brilliant @adamzed.bsky.social - truly chilling.

Also had time to go check out the towering ‘St Mary of Charity’ and its terrifying new sculptures who definitely come to life after dark

23 (?!) years of Feeder’s ‘Comfort in Sound.’ Clearly a mistake but clearly still the best - and @grantnicholas is clearly a vampire

So great to catch-up with Dan Baines for his MacMillan open day and truly a privilege to test out his astounding new illusion ‘Project Nightmind’ at his studio in darkest Kent. Narrated by the phenomenal E.R. Perkins - terrifying.
( No wonder the other attendees appeared to have been scared stiff. )

For fans of the ghost story in Kent, this year marks the 10th anniversary of the brilliant
‪@adamzed.bsky.social Book of Darkness and Light, it remains IMO one of the most unsettling live ghost story events I've seen.

Don't miss this Sunday's show at The Alex in Faversham: tinyurl.com/4znncwhw

Darkness & Light

The Book of Darkness & Light presents Darkness & Light: Ghost Stories by Adam Z. Robinson Come face-to-face with terror… One lamp-lit storyteller, two ghostly tales and nothing else but the infinite…

So great to catch-up with Reece Shearsmith to see his and Steve Pemberton ‘s fantastic Inside No.9 ‘Stage Fright’ at the Marlowe Theatre. Hilarious and chilling in equal measure and absolutely unmissable

Saturday night was a great excuse to catch some classic found footage on the big screen as Silver Screams screened The Blair Witch Project at The Ashford Cinema. Over 50 found footage fans attended (incredibly) - huge thanks to the brilliant @bunnydarke.bsky.social for being a fantastic guest!
