In the spirit of Darkade, some of my favourite horror arcade cabs from yesteryear. Chiller still feels like a fever dream - I've genuinely no idea how that ever got made without someone being locked up.

Great evening watching Monkey with Cymbals performing her fantastic Edith Wharton supernatural performance at the Tom Thumb Theatre Margate. Definitely one of the most attractive theatres I’ve visited - like something from Mid-West America

Undoubtedly one of the main inspiration points behind Darkade my comic Kickstarter, has been those classic vintage Penny arcades which I’ve long been obsessed with. Rye’s own Penny Arcade
Note ‘Barnacle Bill’ the laughing sailor who allegedly would activate randomly after hours…

Great fun at Uncanny Fright Night at the Royal Albert Hall last night. Sure this brief unholy vision was nothing to worry about as Danny was using his ouija board during Tubular Bells…

Big fan of this new Kickstarter scam where scammers pretend to me successful kickstarters to try and sell ‘services’ to campaign managers.
Amazingly poor ai writing. ‘It actually dragged on me’ sold it for me 💪💀

Always a pleasure to catch-up with the talented Lebanon Circle (not just because he gives amazing gifts) but this was something pretty incredible. Go grab a copy of ‘Project Nightmind’ for Halloween!
Where better to meet than Canterburys haunted Tiny Tim’s tearooms (delicious and terrifying)

A fantastic eve of ghost stories at The Alex Faversham ( in the most haunted town in Britain ) narrated by the brilliant @adamzed.bsky.social - truly chilling.
Also had time to go check out the towering ‘St Mary of Charity’ and its terrifying new sculptures who definitely come to life after dark

So great to catch-up with Dan Baines for his MacMillan open day and truly a privilege to test out his astounding new illusion ‘Project Nightmind’ at his studio in darkest Kent. Narrated by the phenomenal E.R. Perkins - terrifying.
