Blog Schedule for this Week

Dearest Readers,

This week shall not be in vain. I plan on being quite productive and bringing you lots of goodies with at least five new blog posts:

Sunday: Music Spotlight on Emilie Autumn
Tuesday: Movie Review of The Last Exorcism
Wednesday: TV Show Review of True Blood - Season 1
Thursday: Movie Review of Let Me In
Friday: Book Review of Haunted: Tales of the Grotesque - by Joyce Carol Oates


I hope that this week will be brighter than the last two have been. In the words of The Lady of Shallott, "I'm half-sick of shadows."

Forever Yours,
Mina

A Beautiful Grey Morning

Today, as I left my house, the world was silent and frozen. It was a beautiful sight. The sky was grey and shrouded in clouds and my car was covered was a thick sheet of ice. I scraped off the ice and it flew around in tiny shards like glass. It was a magical moment for me. I genuinely hate winter, but I found the ice to be incredibly beautiful. It gave the atmosphere such an ethereal beauty.

Anyway, I'm nearly finished with season one of True Blood! I'm really enjoying it and I'm going to review it for you in a few days. So that people reading this (if anyone is reading this; blogging readership is always a painfully slow process) know what's coming up on this blog besides my random ramblings, here is a list of things I plan to put here in the next week or two:

  • A Review of True Blood Season 1
  • A Review of House of Dark Shadows by Robert Liparulo
  • A Music Spotlight on Emilie Autumn
  • A Special Link for all Writers of Horror
  • A Review of a movie...specifics still to be determined......
I'd love to some day make this blog a bit more interactive and have reader's poetry and artwork and etc. highlighted for all to enjoy! If anyone thinks that's a good idea, feel free to let me know that you're interested!

Welcome to My Abyss

Hello, my dears, and welcome to my safe haven. This is a blog for all those who love the darkness of horror. In the coming days and weeks and years, I will be reviewing books and movies and t.v. shows and bands and other forms of art that can be classified as horror or dark fantasy. I'll ramble and moan and together we'll make sense of this world. Stick around if you feel misunderstood. Stay if you're never able to be cheered up by those around. If you see the world differently than others, join me on this journey of self-exploration in the dark. We're going to be okay. The dark is nothing to fear.

So, in conclusion, here's what you can expect from this blog:
  • Reviews of books
  • Reviews of movies
  • Ramblings about life and depression
  • Links to tons of amazing horror resources
  • A friend who won't judge you
Your comrade in darkness,
Mina
