It's like artifacts from the nightmare realm invading reality. Or arseyfacts in this case.

A present I had 60 years ago for Christmas 1965. Still have it. This felt state of the art at the time. Comic strips on acetate that you fed by hand into a projector. We didn't have a plain wall (floral wallpaper in the '60s) so my parents hung up a bedsheet as a makeshift screen. It felt magical.
