Synopsis When a small town catholic priest commits suicide, he apparently opens a gate to hell. Elsewhere a young psychic predicts the resulting apocalypse of the dead rising from the grave, and she promptly dies. Did I say she dies? Just kidding, a reporter finds her alive in a graveyard. They travel to the small town she saw in the vision named Dunwich, and team up with another couple and… do things?  Review of City of the Living Dead (1980) What is there to say about City of the Living Dead that hasn't already been said by wacky mad libs? It feels like someone with attention deficit disorder and short term memory loss was tasked with making a horror movie, and made it up as they went along. Even the title is a misnomer, at most this is a village or hamlet of the living dead. If you find yourself asking what is going on, rest assured that you will not find answers by the end. I'm sure if you asked Lucio Fulci to explain, you'd get some hand wavy explanation that would mention H.P. Lovecraft, the Salem Witch trial, and Heresy against god. The impression is that making sense is not a large concern for this film, this is more of a strap in and enjoy the ride film. Along the way you will be treated by some surprisingly good practical effects including bleeding from the eyes, lots of smashed brains, and a drill press through the jaw.  I can't say that it held my rapt attention, but it did have some good moments. This is a great movie to watch with friends, preferably under the influence of some kind of substance. In my case sitting alone, sober, watching this movie as an assignment from patrons, It was not super enjoyable. Score 3/10

FLESH WISH, 4min., UK Directed by Timothy Benjamin Slessor An experimental horror inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, David Cronenberg and Clive Barker, this music video / short details in an abstract way the summoning of demons through a ritual performed behind the locked doors of a 1970s terraced house. What motivated you to make this film? Several factors! Firstly, I wanted to make something visual to accompany the release of my album. Secondly, I wanted to experiment with a lot of different ideas and techniques, but importantly have a finished piece of work to show for it, not just a bunch of tests. Thirdly I wanted to see how I could kind of corrupt and pervert generative ai platforms and work them into my editing and animation / vfx practise and finally I wanted to make something that would surprise and confound my friends and colleagues! From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? It was about three to four months of laborious work, mostly in after effects and premiere. I had to create all of the images and heavily distort and rework them and the editing was done frame-by-frame. About 6 months after it was finished I considered going back and tweaking some things but one look at the edit sequence was enough to convince me to leave well alone! How would you describe your film in two words!? Quite fleshy. What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? The hardest thing was just getting it finished! It was so hard to create enough interesting images and scenes, especially given the extremely fast cut-rate. I kept trimming the track down (ultimately from around 5 mins to about 3'45 I think) just so I could get it done (I had to keep pushing the release of the album back too as a result).

Intro Cassilda y la araña Cordelia. 🕷🕸 Hemos recuperado este inquietante relato del maestro Robert Bloch, y le hemos dado nueva vida en Historias para ser leídas. 'El muerto viviente', Robert Bloch, un relato de vampiros publicado en el año 1967 en Sanguinarius. Ya de joven publicó relatos en revistas pulp, y elaboró fanzines sobre ciencia ficción. Formó parte del círculo de admiradores de H.P. Lovecraft, con quien se carteaba y por el que fue muy influenciado en una primera época, si bien desarrolló posteriormente un estilo muy propio. Trabajó como guionista cinematográfico y también como adaptador de sus propias novelas, siendo ejemplo famoso la adaptación de Psicosis, que sería dirigida por Hitchcock. Logró numerosos premios a su labor literaria, como el Hugo y el Bram Stoker. Fue presidente de la Asociación de Escritores de Misterio de América. Su producción se compone de numerosísimos relatos cortos y novelas. Cultivó los géneros de la fantasía, terror y ciencia ficción.

Here is an audio preview of one of the new shows coming out on our Strange Midnight AV YouTube channel. In all of our stress disappearing we basically created 4 different 80s Found Footage Horror ASMR(-ish) TV series. First, there's Lotho's Library of Classic Horrors, an '80s goth public access show where Lotho the Librarian whispers eerie tales pulled straight from classic masters of horror. Then we have Vision Quest Video Club, a series of unsettling guided meditations that feel like they've been beamed in from a dream you don't quite remember. There's also the OTS Student Assessment Tapes, inspired by those hearing and vision tests from school. The ones that may (or may not) have been a CIA experiment. And finally, Whispering Winnie, where a painting of a little girl springs to life to tell you twisted, uncanny versions of your favorite fairy tales. We will be putting out one episode on YouTube a week, the shows alternate, one week Vision Quest, next week Winnie, OTS, and Lotho and so on. But the first drop will be one of each, coming out Thursday August 14th at 6pm. As we mentioned in the intro, we don't wanna overload your feed, just wanted to share a few of them with you guys. @StrangeMidnightAV on YouTube, TikTok & IG. ____________________________ Tonight belongs to Lotho.

🕷 Hemos recuperado 'La Araña', el inquietante relato de Hans Heinz Ewers, y le hemos dado nueva vida en Historias para ser leídas. Un texto perturbador que regresa envuelto en sombras, con una atmósfera renovada y la misma fuerza hipnótica de siempre. Escúchalo… si te atreves!! 🕯🎙 La Araña es una historia inusual, ilusoria, espeluznante y surrealista como un sueño o una pesadilla. Escrito por el autor alemán Hanns Ewers (Tanto el escritor como su obra fueron relegados al olvido por un largo periodo de tiempo y sólo en los últimos años ambos han vuelto a ocupar el puesto que se merecían en el panorama literario de principios de siglo. Nacido en Düsseldorf en 1871, Ewers fue uno de los escritores más famosos en Alemania antes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial; muchos autores, como Hermann Hesse o Hermann Broch, se inspiraron en su obra, y su influencia fue avalada también por el gran H.P. Lovecraft. Sin embargo, debido a su colaboración con los nazis, tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial cayó en el ostracismo más profundo. Su perfil biográfico ha sido explicado de manera muy exhaustiva en la introducción del libro 'La araña y otros cuentos macabros y siniestros', editado por Valdemar en 2014. Dicha colección reúne una selección de los cuentos de terror y misterio más importantes del escritor alemán, y entre ellos destaca La araña. Este cuento, publicado en 1908, se convirtió en muy poco tiempo en un éxito a nivel internacional por el misterioso e indescifrable significado de su narración. La araña relata la historia de un enigmático caso de suicidios ocurridos en una pequeña pensión parisina llamada Hotel Stevens: tres huéspedes, tres personas ahorcadas, tres viernes consecutivos, una misma habitación. El misterio resulta interesante no sólo para la policía sino también para un estudiante de Medicina llamado Richard Branquemont, que pretende alcanzar notoriedad y fortuna solucionando el enigma. La historia está contada por el mismo estudiante a través de las páginas de su diario, razón por la cual el lector tendrá que interpretar por sí mismo los últimos acontecimientos. Como en otros cuentos del mismo autor, el mal está representado por una atractiva mujer; en esta ocasión, se trata de una joven doncella, Clarimonde (según el autor del diario), cuya ventana se encuentra justo enfrente de la habitación “maldita”. El intrépido estudiante no podrá evitar acercarse a la ventana y ver a una bellísima joven con un vestido color negro que se pasa los días hilando en una rueca antigua.

A elderly man returns to Rocky Point, a place where he was happy and had great exectations. But he's drawn there now by regret and a love that never died. Is it too late for some of those expectations to be met?Lee Clark Zumpe, an entertainment columnist with Tampa Bay Newspapers, earned his bachelor's in English at the University of South Florida. He began writing poetry and fiction in the early 1990s. His work has regularly appeared in a variety of literary journals and genre magazines over the last two decades. Publication credits include World War Cthulhu and The Children of Gla'aki from Dark Regions Press; Through a Mythos Darkly from PS Publishing; Children of Lovecraft Country and Shadows of an Inner Darkness from Golden Goblin Press; and Corridors and The Pickman Papers from Innsmouth Gold. Lee lives on the west coast of Florida with his wife and daughter.  Lee's inclination toward horror manifested itself early in his childhood when he began flipping through the pages of Forrest J. Ackerman's Famous Monsters of Filmland and reading Gold Key Comic classics like Boris Karloff Tales of Mystery and Grimm's Ghost Stories. In his teenage years, he discovered Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft, Ambrose Bierce, Richard Matheson and other masters of the genre. Lee's work often focuses on character interaction set against a pervading sense of cosmic dread and high strangeness.You can read "Return to Rocky Point" at https://www.kaidankaistories.com.Website: kaidankaistories.comPlease feel free to contact me through the website contact form.Follow us on: InstagramFacebookBlueskySubstack

Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Livio Pacella.La stagione 1 di The Terror (10 episodi, Prime Video) è tratta dall'omonimo romanzo del 2007 (in it. La scomparsa dell'Erebus) di Dan Simmons. Che a sua volta si basa sulla vera storia della spedizione marittima britannica del 1845 nelle acque del circolo polare artico, alla ricerca del mitico passaggio a nord-ovest. La serie è una lenta, spettacolare e dolorosa discesa nell'abisso della natura e dell'animo umano. Ed è anche una meditazione sulla fine delle gerarchie, sulla dissoluzione del potere, sulla fragilità della civiltà. Tra storia e fantastico; tra mappe, Poe, Lovecraft. “2 voci, 1 serie”: dialoghi sulle cose che ci piacciono, o ci interessano, nel podcast di Mondoserie.Leggi il nostro articolo su The Terror: https://www.mondoserie.it/the-terror/ Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/  Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast  Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/ 

This week we kneel on tentacled leg before DAGON! We discuss the pretty one sided deal these villagers make with this aquatic diety, greatest H.P. Lovecraft film adaptations, and what to do when your half octopuss sister sets her romantic sights on you. Despite all the obvious barnacles, there is plent of wonderful elements to dive head first into with this Messed Up Movie.  Synopsyis: A boating accident runs a young man and woman ashore in a decrepit Spanish fishing town which they discover is in the grips of an ancient sea god and its monstrous half human offspring.

H.P. Lovecraft rolls in his grave as the Society, Cinquisitor Ethan in the lead, concludes its Conclave examining "From Beyond," a surprisingly sex-drenched mind-melter of a movie from the mid-80's.  Written by Ethan Ireland and Andy Slack Sound design & editing by Ethan Ireland Music by Karl Casey at White Bat Audio Incidental music and sound courtesy of White Bat Audio Art & graphic design by Andy Slack Comics   The Cinemania Society is a work of fiction.

She was flawless. A model of grace and stillness, prized by every artist who worked with her. But beneath the surface of the painter's studio—amid the heat, the charcoal dust, and the careful posing—something else lingered. “Rose Rose” by Barry Pain was first published in Stories in Grey (T. Werner Laurie, 1911). It is now in the public domain. Barry Eric Odell Pain (1864–1928) was a British humorist and writer of uncanny fiction. H.P. Lovecraft cited him as an influence, and Robert Louis Stevenson compared him to Maupassant.

Gobbo, Emmy, and Drew sit down to talk about designing and writing Gods and Pantheons. In Part 1, they discuss some of the finer points of genre blending, as well as what makes a god, by exploring the works of Lovecraft, Martin, and Gaiman, while also examining works such as The Magnus Archives, Dragon Age, and Guild Wars.

Estoy viviendo en el recuerdo de una ventana. Donde quiera que esconda la ventana, estarán esperando. 🎧 Cielos diferentes, de China Miéville. Un relato perturbador y fascinante que publicamos hace tres años y que hoy vuelve a ver la luz. Lo rescatamos del archivo, lo vestimos de nuevo y lo compartimos contigo como si fuera la primera vez. Porque hay cielos que nunca dejan de inquietarnos. Cielos diferentes. Un relato escrito por China Miéville, narrado por Olga Paraíso. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHINA MIÉVILLE (Inglaterra, 1972) es escritor, político y profesor. Nació en Norwich, aunque creció en Willesden, un barrio de clase trabajadora al noroeste de Londres, donde reside desde su infancia. Está considerado uno de los fundadores de la corriente de la literatura fantástica conocida como new weird, caracterizada por no seguir las estrictas reglas de la ciencia ficción y mezclar cultura pop, magia, steampunk y monstruos mitológicos. Ha recibido los galardones más prestigiosos dentro del género fantástico como el Hugo o el Locus. Ha ganado tres veces el premio Arthur C. Clarke y dos veces el British Fantasy y, desde 2015, es miembro de la Real Sociedad de Literatura británica. Puedes comprar sus libros en Amazon: https://www.amazon.es/China-Mi%25C3%25A9ville/e/B001IQUN20?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1627039269&sr=1-1 📘Influencias literarias: Su trabajo puede describirse como fantástico por sus mundos y escenarios sobrenaturales. Se ha discutido su trabajo en relación a las categorías de ciencia ficción, fantasía y "surrealismo urbano"12​. El estilo de Miéville se reconoce influenciado por la ciencia ficción pulp de los años 20, tanto de series de televisión como de películas, así como por diversos escritores de terror y fantasía. Destaca la influencia de M. John Harrison, Michael Moorcock, Thomas M. Disch, y J.G. Ballard, a los que considera prácticamente como sus ídolos; pero también son importantes otros autores como H.P. Lovecraft, Mervyn Peake, y Gene Wolfe. También ha admitido que sus libros contienen referencias a escritores rusos, incluyendo a Andrei Platonov, Arkady y Boris Strugatsky, Evgeny Voiskunsky y Isai Lukodyanov. 📌Síguenos en nuestro canal informativo de Telegram: https://t.me/historiasparaserleidas 🛑BIO Olga Paraíso: https://instabio.cc/Hleidas Música en este audio: Epidemic Sound licencia autorizada 🎙 Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Send us a textWe are in the dog days of summer.  It's a season of campouts, when a tent pitched in a backyard offers cool relief from sunny days. Those magical nights are a bridge to the celestial realm. From stories written in the stars to the placement of the Sun, Moon and planets at the moment of our birth, to the impact Moon phases and Sun spots have on our human bodies? The bridge to the celestial realm awaits. Let's step onto it.The Celestial BridgeWhen I think of the bridge to the celestial, I picture the crystal rainbow from the Thor movie that stretched from Asgard to other realms.The stars and our place among them has birthed questions we humans have pondered since ancient times. Tales have been woven from that vast blanket of light that speak of heroes, villains, cautionary tales, mythical beasts, revenge, and more. The placement of the moon, the sun, and constellations signaled the time to plant crops, hunt, store for winter, and hunker down. The sight of comets and meteor showers were often seen as omens, signs from the gods that seeded legends we repeat today.We still look to the stars, the sun and phases of the moon to better feel our connection to the Universe. Those celestial bodies inspire the mystery of us, in a way that feels secret, sacred and sometimes haunting.In fact, the cosmos inspired their own fiction genre known as Cosmic Horror. Heavily influenced by H.P. Lovecraft, Cosmic Horror focuses on the insignificance of humans, the unsettling nature of the Universe, and cosmic entities that can be threatening, or seem intimidating at the very least.What to Read/Listen/Watch NEXT!A Beginner's Guide to Reading a Birth Chart, ELLE Magazine, Madison FellerBeginner's Guide to Reading a VEDIC Birth Chart, Melooha.com, Dr. Vineeta PhatakPast Life in the Natal Chart, Astrologgia.com, Daria RoweFour Elements in Astrology, Moonletter.co.uk, Ben BelinskySun Facts, NASA.govSolar Flares: Effects on Humans, Heath.com, Amanda MacMillanInterpreting 5 Ancient Constellations Across Cultures, Discover Magazine, Joshua Rapp LearnOrion Across Three Cultures, NightSkyTourist.comI don't accept sponsors and paid advertisers.

Back on the trails for a mind-melting trip this week.   Wendy Wagner is in the hot-seat, playing shaman as we discuss The Girl in the Creek – her brand new novel of fungoid-terror, eco-thrills and psychedelic strangeness. It's a beautiful, bewildering hallucination of a book.   Wendy's inspirationsrange from cutting edge science to the antics of Scooby Doo and the gang, along with a sprinkle of Lovecraft, and a hint of self-hypnosis. We cover it all, along with a discussion of eco-grief, higher states of consciousness, weird non-fiction obsessions and a little bit of trail running chat – which I promise we make macabre.   Enjoy!   Other books mentioned:   “An Infestation of Blue” (2023), by Wendy Wagner The Deer Kings (2021), by Wendy Wagner Entangled Lives (2023), by Merlin Sheldrake Are We Smart Enough To Know How Smart Animals Are?

Today we chat with wonderful Celeste Mott who has been chronicling her experiences with an online Anne Rice "vampire cult." to great acclaim. A talented writer, witch and storyteller Celeste takes us on a weird and wonderful ride into the strange world of stories bending our reality and 'inviting us' to participate and become characters in tales that envelope our lives. All of which is based on her real life account of being in an online vampire cult in the 2000s.We spent time dissecting the idea of narrative magic and how the stories we tell ourselves, and the ones we absorb or indeed are captured by, can lead to real-world changes and transformations. Celeste shared some really thought-provoking insights into how childhood experiences and archetypes stick with us, influencing our perceptions in profound ways.It was clear that her past, particularly those early online encounters, has given her a unique lens through which to view the world, blurring the lines between what's considered real and what might just be a powerful shared imagination. We also touched on her successful video content and how it ties into a broader cultural yearning for mysticism. It's not about proving anything, but rather understanding the human need for these kinds of narratives.In Plus section, we really go deeper into some of Celeste's thoughts on the dangers of Narrative magic and how these strange phenomena make you question the very nature of reality. Are we in some weird matrix where stories are the very building blocks of our reality and are storytellers the sometimes unwitting creators of our world. We get into the work of Anne Rice in more detail and other storytellers that bring 'currents' into the world like Grant Morrison, Clive Barker and H.P. Lovecraft and how the 'Meta' element seems to be play significant factor in the stories bleeding into our reality.Show notes:Start here for The Vampire cult videos https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIUGqpUOmpE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==Celeste's website https://www.celestemott.comTik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@celestemothPatreon https://www.patreon.com/celestemottAnne Rice https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_RiceInterview with the Vampire 1994 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCmYN6TLd8AInterview with the Vampire 2022 AMC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8Oysn9I9K8Keep in touch?https://linktr.ee/darraghmason
