Unorthodox bench sitting. #1 in a new series.
A man has inserted his legs through the back of a park bench, leaning on the back of the seat, instead of resting against it; the conventional way - which doesnt involve you manipulating your body in a weird flex.

Available via @mypetflamingo.bsky.social
Image shows an 80s Sanyo Walkman (black and grey with a red strip) on a warm looking rug or scarf. To the right is the cassette format of Donor Lens' new album 'As Cold as Winter' - which features a large image of a cat wearing a snug looking blue and white bobble wintry hat.

Crooked Merton Council, now experiencing community members cutting down its CCTV cameras trapping unsuspecting motorists down a road they shut with no signs to indicate its closure, are now paying someone to sit in car - engine running next to a school - indiscriminately filming everyone inc kids.
Merton Council funded car with a CCTV camera fixed to its roof, with the engine running, as school kids walk past.

Another iconic year trick or treating with the kids in south London. See you next time, Halloween.
A collage of creepy things, from neon eye balls, scary carved pumpkins and skeletons, to cute crafted ghosts, and houses decorated for Halloween.

We did it! #31DaysOfHalloween 2025
A collage of 31 horror and adjacent movies and TV, with red crosses struck through them - one for every day of October. The last remaining is the poster for Halloween III: Season of the witch.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 31! I have a busy day of Halloweening ahead, but to complete the set, I will be watching one of my favourites of the Halloween series - and I know it divides people. Let's hear it for Halloween III: The Season of the Witch. Happy Halloween, everyone 🎃🔪👻🕸🕷
An illustration depicts two children with Halloween masks (a pumpkin and a skull) melting into their faces. On the TV between them is a commercial with a glowing pumpkin. Up top is an evil looking witch with red glowing eyes and a spider crawling put of her mouth. Great cover image!

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 30! And at some point today, around family time, I need to squeeze in the 2004 (but feels very 90s & is lovingly low budget) Satan's Little Helper. It comes across as a made for TV Disney movie gone mad, as a kid befriends a masked serial killer over a Halloween spree.
A demonic smiling face (actually a mask) clutches a pumpin with clawed hands (costume) - with the title of the movie cut into the pumpkin and glowing from inside: Satan's Little Helper.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 29, and we're getting close but had to go to a back-up family safe movie, as it's still half term & son is up with a bad cough. Subtitles on then, and it's Tim Burton's 1990 suburban gothic - with a cameo from master of horror Vincent Price - Edward Scissorhands.
Johnny Depp's scarred profile looks forlorn above a reflection of his face in his bladed hands.

Well played. #StrangerThings
A local tattooist shop has a Halloween decoration of a lifesize "floating" Max Mayfield from Stranger Things, where the girl - in her distinct 80s clothing and over ear headphones - is seen rising to the sky in a trance like state.

"Hard men" like Yaxley Lennon. Ok.
Stephen Yaxley Lennon bearded after being released from prison, looking completely hard, and not like the guy that runs your work IT system.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 28, & with it being half term school holiday - and after a day of fun at a theme park - it's a family friendly movie: Hocus Pocus 2.
The three Sanderson Sisters, portrayed by Bette Midler as Winifred (Winnie), Kathy Najimy as Mary, and Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah, stand in full costume against a moody full moon in a modern Salem setting.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 27, and tonight it's a beloved movie which I first saw I guess in the 90s. Monster Squad [1987]. A strange one as the kids are 12 years old, yet the movie had a 15 rating so landed in a weird place with audiences. I have a soft spot for it though.
The poster is all large scary monster faces in a line, with our young protagonists leaning on a car bonnet looking super cool and kick ass as a central image. The monsters are all in midnight blue hue, but our heroes are brightly coloured and very 80s.

Well played @monzo.com 🎃

A Monzo payment screen which - when used - activates an animated smiling pumpkin with a black cat appearing from its cut lid.

We hosted an annual Halloween Party today, for our son and his friends. I didnt have a costume sorted, so I dressed as @neonfawkes.com instead! Amusing that I was the only person to get the reference.
Rob is standing in a modern kitchen with marble style tiles, and dark blue cabinets - wearing a tee of Canadian synthwave DJ Neon Fawkes, and a silver "Guido Fawkes" mask - often associated with Anonymous and anti authoritarianism dissent.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 26, and a firm favourite of mine, possibly the original 'old haunted mansion' movie (and definitely an influence on things like Rocky Horror; a dark & stormy night, a broken down car, having to approach an old dark house for refuge...). Old Dark House [1932].
An illustration of a young woman's face looking frightened, and below the old dark house itself with a likeness of one of its stars, the horror legend Boris Karloff.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 25, double bill today, watching along with (very sickly kid) the child friendly Halloweentown2 [2001], and then when he's gone to bed - the Halloween episode of Psychoville [2010].
The one and only Debbie Reynolds is the grandma witch, and her head appears to the left behind a spooky lit up pumpkin. On the right is her movie granddaughter - who is like a witch in training or some shit. The cast of Psychoville appear in a classic 'circus' illustration; mainly consisting of Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton characters. "David Sowerbutts" appears large in a Frankenstein costume.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 24, and I'm going for Smile 2 [2024]. Looking for good scares and some body horror....
A young woman in distinctive blue eye shadow stares into the camera in the style of a poster - there is a tear in the image across her race, resembling a large red smile from ear to ear.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 23, and I just spotted Eggers' Nosferatu [2024] has popped up on Prime (I know, I know, Bezos..). Let's see how it compares to his other brilliant, autuer led, movies.
Count Orlok is shrouded in darkness and shadows, and his face is not visible. A clawed hand emerges from dark robes.

Could all change tomorrow, but here are my @80shorrordoc.bsky.social (the 90s) top nineties scares. Cc @davidweiner.bsky.social #HorrorSky
A meme created by the In Search of Darkness / Creatorvc team. I have filled in some of my favourite movies onto the spines of VHS tapes. They are surrounded by the covers of loads of 90s horror movie posters. Mine read: Jacob's Ladder, Audition, Scream, and Candyman. 90s only!

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 20, and I have heard mixed reviews of Osgood Perkin's riff on Stephen King's tale, The Monkey [2025]...
A shadowed toy tin monkey grimaces with red, demonic eyes and red-gummed teeth straight out at the viewer.

The @dadshiftuk.bsky.social campaign is on!

My sticker image represents my paltry 2 weeks' paternity leave being spent in hospital as both mum and son were v poorly. An unsympathetic employer, & lots of worry meant I couldn't feel the joy or wonder of being a new dad. Then straight back to work!
The Dad Shift sticker reads: UK Paternity Leave is a Mother F**ker. A pile of new dad books sits on the ground beside it.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 19, and I am making a big concession and allowing Cape Fear [1991], as it's a dark thriller that my wife has never seen....
Robert De'niro's scary eyes pierce the image, and a ripped photo of a family rests below. At the top, is an image of a boat on a lake / river with lightening surrounding it.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 18 and a Saturday Night Scream (3).
The poster for Scream 3 has the main casts' faces in a fan shape - with an eye as if peeking through a keyhole in the number 3 above.

#31DaysOfHalloween Day 17 is Australian chiller, Lake Mungo - a first watch for me, but was recommended by a horror buff who likes found footage movies...
A black and white shadowy face takes up half the image. On the lower right is a ghostly dark figure in the shadow of a tree.
