Witchcraft Wednesday: Psychic Powers
I have been going through my notes for my "Occult D&D" project and my list of potential movies to watch this October and they crossover at an interesting point: Troubled Psychic Kids. So I started some new notes. #adnd

The Conjuring (2013)

October Horror Movie Challenge: The Conjuring (2013) - The Conjuring Series
The centerpiece of the Conjuring Universe, the one that started it all. I can say I really loved this one, and I am glad I finally saw it.

Annabelle (2014)

October Horror Movie Challenge: Annabelle (2014) - The Conjuring Series
Now we come to the first proper sequel, or prequel to the Conjuring universe, 2014's Annabelle. How does it measure up?

Every day I’ve been getting angrier when I think about how maga, the so called alpha male bros, always punch down at people who are less fortunate or struggling.

This isn’t manliness. It’s cowardly, it’s shameful, and it makes you look like a tiny little douche face

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

This week I look at the issues, pro and con, of using AI in Language Instruction. Should educators use it? If so, then how? If not, then why?

Spider Baby doll. I was assured it was not haunted when I bought it.

Monstrous Mondays: Haunted Dolls
I watched Annabelle: Creation last night, and it was fun. Like the rest of the Conjuring movies, it is based on "real" events and, in this case, a real doll.
So lets have some creepy fun.

It is a surprisingly effective game. I have not looked at it in so long, but I'm glad I pulled it out this week.

Jennifer 1978 movie poster

October Horror Movie Challenge: Jennifer (1978)
Tonight's movie, Jennifer (1978), is a complete attack of opportunity, but I am glad I found it.
If the Exorcist spawned hundreds of imitators, then Carrie (1976) spawned at least a dozen or so as well.

Demons (1985) movie poster

October Horror Movie Challenge: Demons (1985)
Again, this October Horror Movie Challenge, I am going "themeless." Last night's pick, 1985's Demons. Don't go looking for plot, but if you like 80s gore, then I have you set!
