Absolutely wrecked to see this happen. Coffin Bell was the first place I ever published any of my work, and I was always grateful to those involved for the opportunity.
Thanks for all of the years and all the great works that were hosted here. I wish y’all the best, and take care of yourselves

Coffin Bell is closing its doors due to unfortunate news & the system raising expenses, so I just want to express gratitude to @coffinbell.bsky.social for hosting such an awesome space for gothic writers, & for publishing my ace horror “What Wakwaks Want.”

Sad to see Coffin Bell go - a journal full of the strange and spooky. They gave a home to one of my weird eerie stories and were very kind. 💙
Wishing those behind Coffin Bell well - taking care of your health is never the wrong choice.
