Cartoon of the Day

Though not actually horrific in itself, I thought this cartoon might have special meaning for aficianados of horror, suspense, mystery, or of speculative fiction in general. Enjoy.
Have a Walking Dead Easter!

Our friend Alyssa Milano from B&J’s Pizza in Corpus Christi, TX posted these on Facebook. They were too delicious not to share with the world. According to her the eggs were brought by the Zombie Easter Bunny. 🙂 Have a Walking Dead Easter!
St. Patrick’s Day Fun
1847-1912
1814-1873
For St. Patrick’s Day, I thought I would bring up just a couple of tidbits.
First of all, the first two Irish horror authors who spring to mind are Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu (born at 45 Lower Dominick Street, Dublin, according to Wikipedia) and Bram Stoker (born in Clontarf, north of Dublim (also according to Wikipedia). Follow the links to my articles on each.
Second, I did a quick search for “Irish horror humor” on Google and found reviews for Grabbers. I haven’t seen the movie yet myself, but it looks like fun. I will definitely check it out at my first opportunity and I recommend that you do too.
Third, never drink and blog. If you have ever seen the movie Sideways starring Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church, you know the dangers of drinking and dialing. The dangers of drinking and blogging are similar, but on an international scale. 🙂
Just a quick bit of humor for the day…
I don’t recall where I found this on the Internet, but it did make me realize the importance of staying in shape.
Horror Humor
As you have probably surmised by now, occasionally I like to surf the net looking for the humorous side of horror. Today, I found a website called appropriately horrorhumor.com. From what I can see, they have only been up since February of this year and have only a few posts, but if you like the sample above, they are worth checking out.

How about a bit of horror in your humor?
Tonight, I thought I would just do a quick Google search for “horror” and “humor”. Here are my favorites from among the many results.

Follow this link to view a demonstration of the waterphone, the device responsible for the majority of eerie sounds and music in horror movies. This clip is from wimp.com (a very entertaining and often intellectually intriguing site).
A Little Dark Humor for my Readers
My posts have been deep of late, so I thought I would lighten things up with a little dark humor. I found this someplace on the internet and I love it. I apologize to the artist for not having recorded its source, but whoever you are, I love your work!
While I’m at it, I’ll add another of my favorites. Again, I didn’t record the artist’s name, but I love his work.
