WORLD HUMAN SPIRIT DAY
Ol’ Turnip Head carries a tower of ghostwritten proses and poems from his metamour Tristan, whose poetic spirit is still willing but his flesh decayed centuries ago.

CHOCOLATE DAY
Everyone loves chocolate, even the Spooky Polycule - whether it’s chocolate eyeballs, chocolate mice, an assortment of gothic candy and the innards of a chocolatier.

WORLD MARRIAGE DAY
Baron Valentino and Baroness Kalonice may have a marriage that goes beyond the realms of mononormativity but it is certainly built on mutual respect and harmonised compersion, open to include fellow vampires and other ghouls, such as Ol’ Turnip Head.

Petition: Ban the use of AI for image, video and audio creation Legislate to ban the AI generation of images, videos and audio to protect the British public from misinformation, harmful and harassing content, and to protect jobs in the creative sectors.

It already has more than 10,000 votes, which is encouraging! Let’s give real artists (such as myself) a marketable creative career

The Werewolves of the Woeful Woods are usually courteous to Ol’ Turnip Head, but for reasons unknown they seemed to have turned against him and his allies.

OLD NEW YEAR
Some old spooks still bringing in the New Year… in the Julian Calendar. Ol’ Turnip Head is disturbed by the clanging and banging of pans as his ghoulish peers celebrate with the Great Noisemaker Bash!

HEN GALAN
Ol’ Turnip Head was disturbed from his slumber to find Ieuan and Ianto chaperoned by Prof. Ulysses. They offer him a decorated apple (which he can’t even eat!) to celebrate the Old New Year.

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...
