Conclusion so far: not peaking, molting. I will report back after the next harvest festival, assuming they let me leave.

The school bell one got me. Small town dread is back on the menu.

This is going on my gravestone. Probably under a maypole.

Not a writer, just here to say this thread is better than half my streaming queue.

Folk horror has been my whole personality since I found a library copy of an old folklore book at fourteen. But $FOLK has been flat to slightly down on CRYPT for three weeks while mentions stay high. Lots of talk, less heat. Are we at the t…

Hello from the edge of the woods. Folk horror first, everything else second. First memory: a harvest festival scene on late night TV that I was far too young for.
