Oh yeah, well spotted! Definitely his style.

Gasp! I need to read this. Not just the title, but that illustration!

Lego skeleton with great hair (black, widow’s peak) and a wooden stake through its ribs

My son made a dead vampire Lego.

Some of the past issues of Hellebore. Covers show spectral figures, old gods and faeries.

We’re taking a summer break! If you’ve been thinking of placing an order, now is the time. All orders placed after Monday will be shipped from August 23rd.

We’ll be back with folklore, old gods, megaliths and strangeness very soon.
Thank you everyone and happy summer 🌞

I always wanted to be Hannibal when we played The A-Team

It’s ✨magic✨

The magic of seeing a project come together ✨

Someone ought to give me a deadline to finish my novel 😤

I thought this was bad but then I realised we could use it to promote me

Súper fan de Fraquistein y el Sin Caeza 🖤

Choose your own adventure: Mothman, cryptic chronicles

Illustration showing the main character following a Mothman into a labyrinthine town with cobbled streets full of Mothmen

Bought this “for my son”. There’s alien conspiracies, Mothman sightings, men in black, bleak endings. I think I might be more excited than him.

The Devil Rides Out

Happy 57th birthday to the best occult thriller ever made

I think that’s the photo. It doesn’t look whitish irl, just lumpy.

Thanks, Kevin. It’s been on my shelf as normal (it wasn’t like this when I bought it). My house isn’t humid and there is no mould inside the book, nor mildew. Someone else suggested it could be the glue binding the cloth to the boards, which would explain the bumpiness.

Musical heritage 'should be part of Birmingham's tourism' Birmingham is home to Black Sabbath, ELO and Judas Priest - should they be reflected in its tourism?

“Black Sabbath is the band that invented heavy metal music, & it is a band that is so meaningful to so many of us, & the DNA of Black Sabbath is everywhere. Those are things that originated in your city. Those are things that originated with Sabbath & Ozzy Osbourne."

Hardcover, cloth bound copy of The Golden Bough looking lumpy

Bibliophile friends, is this water damage? Is my Golden Bough doomed like the sacrificial king himself? I know it’s not exactly valuable, but I’m fond of it.

Me and my book projects

A copy of Soliloquy for Pan

Io Pan! ✨🐐✨

I’ve made it a couple of times in the last week. Goes with pretty much everything: bean stew, lentil salad, halloumi wraps.

It’s from Lee and Froud’s Faeries, but I believe it’s by Alan Lee.

Jenny Greenteeth, demonic creature of British folklore, emerging from a pond to drag unwise children to its murky depths

Changing the name of my Green Goddess dressing (raw spinach, fresh basil, coriander and dill with lemon, garlic and yogurt) to Jenny Greendressing after my partner’s suggestion.
