Trick or Treat Recs - Part III
Hell Sick. Original Works. A failboat demon accidentally locks himself out of Hell. The tone and jokes reminded me a bit of The Good Place.
Chjtolene. "Jolene," a song by Dolly Parton. Tagged "crack taken seriously," this works nicely as a standalone horror story but also has some interesting commentary on both the song and Lovecraft.
Two sweet and funny Black Panther stories with fun uses of Wakanda technology and great character interaction. In The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms!, Shuri seeks inspiration from imported movies to prank her brother; in Slip and Slide, T'Challa and Nakia go ice skating while Shuri takes a seat in the peanut gallery.
Just Around the Corner. The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon - Stephen King. An adult Trisha once again confronts the God of the Lost in this thoughtful look at fear and courage, trauma and moving on, and what does and doesn't change in us when we grow up.
Art: Animals That Are Not Cats
XVII. Watership Down. A beautiful Rider Waite-esque Tarot card of Hyzenthlay as the Star.
The Finer Points. Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Spectacularly detailed apes.
A Vist. Does anyone remember the adorable "Tea House Foxes" Gmail theme? Here, have the tea house fox visited by ancestral fox spirits.
Fin. The ghost of an extinct whale.
