As one of Resurrection Media’s “Scream Queens”, I wanted to share their horror-themed challenge they’ve created! It’s perfect for some Halloween fun…and you have the chance to win prizes!
Face your fears, and take RM’s Horror Villains’ quiz now! https://resurrection-media.com/the-villains-challenge/
And, while you wait for the witching hour on All Hallows’ Eve, immerse yourself in a literary encounter with a villain of a different sort. (Well, depending on your perspective, that is. But that’s a philosophical discussion best saved for another time.) https://horrortree.com/epeolatry-book-review-craft-stories-i-wrote-for-the-devil-by-ananda-lima/
And, a bit of sad news…Sirens Call Publications is closing up shop. Many of us horror and spec fic writers (myself included) have had pieces published within the digital pages of their fantastic eZine. They’ll be sorely missed. Here’s their “Swan Siren Song” post here: https://sirenscallpublications.wordpress.com/2024/10/28/scp-news-sirens-call-publications-is-closing-its-doors/.
I hope your Halloween is full of more delightfully spooky treats than tricks…and haunted locations to explore! See you in November!
(The photos below were taken at Fort Union, a location haunted by both history and by spirits, if you believe the lore. Sadly, I just learned that the also-haunted St. James Hotel in Cimarron, New Mexico served up its last spirits back in September of this year. Perhaps someone will buy it and continue to preserve its historic legacy. https://www.exstjames.com/)

Always sad to hear of a publication closing.

Lulu: “Happy Halloween!”
Charlee: “Our Dada says if he had $10 for every ‘zine he was in that later folded, he would have more money than the ‘zines paid him. Especially since a lot of them paid in copies …”

Those ruins look kind of like a straightened-out adobe brick version of Stonehenge … Happy Halloween!
