#MysteryFriday | La Llorona (the Crying Woman, the Wailer) is a vengeful ghost in Mexican folklore who is said to roam near bodies of water mourning her children whom she drowned in a jealous rage after discovering her husband was unfaithful. Those who hear her crying are believed to suffer misfortune or death, and their lives become unsuccessful in every field. Originally known as Maltinzin, La Llorona's lore is well known in Mexico and the southwestern United States. The earliest documentation of La Llorona dates back to 1550 in Mexico City, but there are theories that her story is connected to specific Aztec mythological creation stories. Folklore like the legend of La Llorona represents the culture by reflecting its values, fears, and historical experiences, weaving together elements of mythology and real events to create stories that resonate across generations. . . . #Folklore #Legends #lallorona #mysteryland #traditionalstories #scarystories #scaryshit #weirdhistory #weirdstuff #weirdstories #weirdworld #mexicanculture #latinamericanculture #folkstory #mysterious #creatureofthenight #latinamerica #latinamerican #aboutlatinamerica #thisislatinamerica #theamericas #LATAM #latam #historic #historical #latinamerican #didyouknowfacts #DidYouKnowThis #didyouknowthat #thecryingwoman #thewailer

“sorcery and sanctity, these are the only realities. Each is an ecstasy, a withdrawal from the common life.” A. Machen’s White People is one of the most stunning examples of weird literature. Actual reality switch technology in form of a short story. I keep coming back to it again and again. . . . #weirdstories #weirdliterature #arthurmachen #fairyfolk #horror #horrorstory #newbook #bookstagram #bookpile #favoritebooks

Occulta, la Biblioteca di Lovecraft Helena Blavatsky, Dion Fortune, Judith Gautier, Anna Kingsford, Elizaveta Magnusgofskaya, Zuresta e Jane de La Vaudère, tra ‘800 e ‘900 sette racconti dal sapore onirico e visionario dalla penna di sette donne occultiste e scrittrici. Poetesse, esoteriste o figlie d’arte (è il caso di Judith Gautier, figlia dello scrittore Théophile Gautier, studiosa di occultismo e folklore celtico, scrittrice poetessa e drammaturga) medium e spiritualiste (Helena Blavatsky), veggenti ed animaliste convinte (Anna Kingsford, seconda donna inglese a laurearsi in medicina) o autrici di testi sulla chiromanzia e tarocchi (Zuresta), queste donne seppur poco conosciute hanno lasciato segni indelebili nel panorama dell’occulto, un mondo decisamente più accogliente della società dell’epoca che le riteneva trasgressive e le emarginava proprio a causa del loro modo di vivere fuori dagli schemi. Viaggi ultraterreni guidati da terribili chimere, evanescenti e mortali donne ammaliatrici, discese dantesche attraverso gironi infernali, incubi, visioni, proiezioni astrali, fate e folletti, alla fine di questa lettura vi sembrerà di riaprire gli occhi dopo un lungo e tormentato sonno. Miraggi letterari e racconti inediti sono preziosamente raccolti in questo volume tutto al femminile. Uno dei racconti che mi ha colpito dipiù è sicuramente Una figlia di Pan di Dion Fortune, una storia criptica che si legge tutto d'un fiato. In una clinica arriva improvvisamente un caso singolare, una ragazzina affetta da uno sconosciuto disturbo. Grazie alle cure non convenzionali di Taverner, Diana ritrova improvvisamente colore e abbandona le vesti dell'automa privo d'anima che era diventato. Una storia dai risvolti totalmente inaspettati e magici. Celati tra queste pagine insieme alle bellissime illustrazioni di Pamela Colman Smith si nascondono molteplici significati ed interpretazioni che non vengono svelate al lettore che può così liberamente applicare la propria personale chiave di lettura. Cosa aspettate ad immergervi in questi incubi ad occhi aperti fatti di chimere, demoni e visioni soprannaturali? Ringrazio di cuore @labibliotecadilovecraft per la copia🖤

Esecranda Volume 8 L' antologia contiene i migliori racconti partecipanti all' ottava edizione del premio Esecranda. Il libro è ben confezionato e disponibile in più varianti: copertina morbida o rigida, a colori o in b/n. I racconti sono 18 e ciascuna storia è arricchita da un' illustrazione particolare partorita dall' immaginazione di Lellinux. I racconti sono piuttosto vari, alcuni più riusciti di altri(come avviene in ogni raccolta di questo mondo) ma toccano tutti tematiche e aspetti differenti. Il mio racconto preferito è Alterazione del sottosuolo(Paolo Bertoglio), una storia che può essere inserita nel filone "infanzia e biciclette", dove le avventure estive di tre amici porteranno all' incontro con creature mostruose. Altri racconti che mi sono piaciuti: -Il fantasma del vecchio mulino(Andy dei Fiori) una storia di fantasmi che vede per protagonisti dei ragazzi e un cadente mulino abbandonato. -Vuk(Alessandro Di Giuseppe) un racconto di guerra, crudo e feroce, condito con aspetti soprannaturali. -Vivono nei buchi(Davide Emanuele), il vincitore del concorso, che si caratterizza per un' ambientazione suggestiva, con la presenza di insetti giganti e sullo sfondo la tragica vicenda di Alfredino. -L'elefante rosa di papà(David Chance Fragale) una sorta di viaggio psichedelico nella mente di uno "scienziato pazzo" e nei sentimenti di sua figlia. Chiude la raccolta È solo inferno, un mio racconto che prova a descrivere la realtà da un altro punto di vista. Chiudo rimarcando ancora l' ottima riuscita del libro a cura del Circolo Culturale Esescifi, a testimonianza della passione che muove ancora alcuni coraggiosi verso le lande del fantastico. #storieinquietanti #storienere #weirdstories #weirditaliano #autoriemergenti #iglibri #bookstagramitalia

The Lost District - Joel Lane 🚦 The kingdom is rotten, trashed, gutted. Rule Britannia is out of bounds. Speculative, reflective and unmistakably present The Lost District is the latest story collection from the United Kingdom’s best author you’ve never heard of. Joel Lane’s exploration of class, dread and place combine to make an effortlessly intense and deeply unnerving exploration of decay and suffering told through the eyes of those who clamour to survive this warped and uncanny existence. My love of Joel Lane is not a surprise, I think I’ve recommended his works to 99% of the readers I’ve ever spoken with so my love for this collection should not come as a shock. I will level with you though, whilst this is easily the best collection of Lane’s short stories it’s heavy, oppressive almost so this world is perhaps best to visit occasionally rather than diving in head first. You might not return the same person. Thank you @influxpress for the advance copy. I appreciate the love you continue to share for the weird. In Memory of Joel Lane 1963 - 2013 🖤

Book review: Salt Slow by Julia Armfield Goodreads rating: 4/5 My rating: ⭐⭐⭐ & 1/2 ⭐ Salt Slow is a collection of short stories by Julia Armfield that explores themes of desire, transformation, and the uncanny. Each story offers a unique perspective on the complexities of human relationships and the hidden forces that shape our lives. From a girl who grows feathers to a woman haunted by a mysterious presence in her apartment, these tales blur the lines between the mundane and the supernatural. The stories are eerie and the latent surreal feeling they evoke stays with you till long after. A good read for anybody that likes spooky but not outright horror. #SaltSlowStories #DesireTransformed #UncannyEncounters #FeminineNarratives #SymbolicTales #EmotionalResonance #saltslow #juliaarmfield #weirdstories #eeriestories #shortstoriescollection #horrorbook #creepystories #creepybook #spookyreads #readwandergrow #bookgramindia #shortread #bookstoreadinonego #supernaturalbooks

#mystery | Cadejos: Creatures of the Night 🐾 In Mesoamerican folklore, the legend of the Cadejos tells of two spirits in the form of wild dogs that roam the night. This ancient tale embodies the eternal struggle between good and evil, with variations found across different countries. The white cadejo is a benevolent guardian, protecting those who venture out at night. Conversely, the black cadejo is mischievous and instills fear in people, spreading darkness wherever it goes. Often, these spirits clash in their attempts to help or harm individuals. Throughout Latin America, the legend of the Cadejos has permeated literature and popular culture, becoming intertwined with other tales of spectral dogs from around the world. Even today, the legend remains popular among locals, reminding us of the ongoing battle between light and darkness in our world. >>✅ Follow us for more content on Latin America . . . #Folklore #Legends #cadejo #cadejoblanco #whitecadejo #blackcadejo #mysteryland #MysteryFriday #wizards #shapeshifting #shapeshifter #traditionalstories #scarystories #scaryshit #weirdfacts #weirdhistory #weirdstuff #weirdstories #weirdworld #mexicanculture #latinamericanculture #animalcounterpart #animalstory #mesoamerican #folkstory #mayans #mysterious #creatureofthenight

#mystery | Have you ever thought about how animals perceive life? Have you ever felt deeply bonded to an animal? In Mesoamerican folk religion, the term "Nahual" (pronounced [na'wal]) refers to people who have the ability to shapeshift into their tonal animal counterpart. Yes! We're talking about humans transforming into animals at will. This is a classic legend widely believed throughout Latin America, particularly in rural areas, where many people will tell you about witnessing shape-shifting individuals late at night. Nahuals are not innately good or wicked; it is up to the individual's disposition.There are stories about great wizards or shamans using their abilities to commit crimes at night, steal property, inflict disease in retaliation, or simply out of wickedness. As a result, Nahuals are frequently feared, and communities prefer to retaliate against people who are perceived to be Nahuales. The narrative, which often bears characteristics despite taking place in different locations, is about an animal attempting to steal something from a house at night. The owners assaulted the animal with machetes, injuring it severely, only to discover in the following days that a close neighbor had been mysteriously wounded with comparable injuries. If you ever visit rural areas in Latin America, we recommend asking the locals about their experiences with Nahuales. You will not be disappointed, and at the same time, you will experience another degree of fear. . . . #nahual #náhual #Nahuales #nahuales #mysterybox #mysteryland #MysteryFriday #wizards #shapeshifting #shapeshifter #traditionalstories #scarystories #scaryshit #weirdfacts #weirdhistory #weirdstuff #weirdstories #weirdworld #mexicanculture #latinamericanculture #animalcounterpart #animalstory #mesoamerican #folkstory #mayans

🏛️🌊 I enjoyed this one WAY more than I thought I would. Some really mad sci-fi ideas alongside the more romantic historical allure of The Sunken City. A great retrospective of older fiction, as the concept of the city beneath the waves was such a popular trope in the late 19th century. My favourite was probably "Under The N-Ray" by R.J. Robbins and Will Smith. And of course "The Temple" by the master, HPL. Bonkers.

- «con molto buonsenso, prudenza e intelligenza è possibile evitare il ripetersi di una disgrazia, ma non si scappa da una maledizione». è così che ha avuto inizio il mio viaggio tra le pagine delle tre storie che compongono questa raccolta, che mi rimarrà impressa per diverso tempo. la prima storia l’ho letta tutta d’un fiato, in un pomeriggio assolato mentre ascoltavo un album di musica composta al pianoforte (playing piano for dad di h hunt, non so se qualcuno lo conosce). la melodia di sottofondo mi ha guidato in viuzze sconosciute, tra le pennellate di un quadro sventurato, davanti a uno specchio di ferro battuto. ci ho trovato poesia, oscura e indomabile, e l’ossessione che per me rende una storia da brividi tale. osservando la macchiolina nera sulla mia mano destra, ho girato pagina e sono arrivata alla seconda storia, che mi ha straziato la mente per la sua complessità e l’incertezza su ciò che fosse vero o meno nel narrato. personalmente la definirei una storia di fantascienza e non mi stupirei se certi autori come quello de”il problema dei tre corpi” l’avesse letta. l’umanità, come spesso accade, è vista come il vero mostro per le atrocità di cui è capace contro se stessa. il suo futuro è sempre incerto, barcollante, e intriso di intrighi tessuti da entità spaziali che probabilmente ci hanno visti nascere. da giove sono stata ricatapultata sulla terra, in un castello infestato di quelli che mi piace definire home sweet home. anche qui l’uomo si mostra come una creatura crudele, dal quale sarebbe meglio fuggire. persino un mucchietto di cianfrusaglie, un po’ d’ossa, un lenzuolo e delle pile saprebbero fare di meglio e saprebbero provare emozioni forti, addirittura un senso di lealtà e amicizia, proprio come la versione del mostro di frankenstein di Prévot. per quanto diverse nel tema, questi tre micromondi creati dall’autore sono stati per me una scoperta eccezionale, e non vedo l’ora di leggere altro scritto da lui. | 📓 @alcatrazedizioni | #alcatrazedizioni #edizionialcatraz #gerardprevot #gérardprévot #lanottedelnord #weird #weirdstories #leggere #leggeresempre #reading #readit #demoni #demons #haunted #hauntedcastle #giove

Tell Tales of Fallen Fairies Unfitting, outcast. Wall, they veered like elephants in sneakers, umbrellas in spandex, elbows greased with mink oil, not to disturb the light of mountains scarred by the likes of those who wanted to be you until they found out you were what they were. The wizened whispered between divine particles of air, as if all the children of the world were in each drop of water in a desert no longer there. And the sewer gratings creaked by rats washed in murk rivers of sewage where the currents worked the exits like panhandling pickpockets groping submerged skulls that detached from necks on wavering bodies feet stuck in a cement no one would ever see or weigh except the sediment worms that hollowed the pipe dreams of bacteria only too small to think of the architects of demise. The anti Christs patted each other on the back with blades as blunt as spears, but no one had ears to hear the screaming of the quiet. And all the people went to sleep curled into each other, if they had no other, curled into themselves, as if nothing had ever happened and nothing whatever were. Yet those who would not sleep stared into the deep of whatever was not who they were. As it were. It was as it ever was. Until. #bizarre #surrealistic #wordgasm #darkfiction #poeticprose #prosepoetry #prose #wordalchemy #tales #darktales #alternativephotography #photostory #experimentalfiction #dreamart #darkimagination #wtfisthis #twistedthoughts #weirdstories #darkliterature #symbolism #satire #ghoststories #whispers #strangefiction #mysteries #fairies #antichrists #beings #myth #mythology

San Diego Lightfoot Sue(Tom Reamy) Storie strane, misteriose, come misterioso è il fatto che questa raccolta sia così poco pubblicizzata. A mio avviso questo è un capolavoro della letteratura di genere, non ci sono dubbi: se vi fidate ok, se non vi fidate sti cazzi. Mentre procedevo nella lettura due erano i pensieri che mi accompagnavano in sottofondo: 1-Tom Reamy era un narratore sublime 2-Quanto fosse triste che uno scrittore di questo talento sia morto così giovane, a 42 anni, lasciando in eredità solo questa raccolta e un unico romanzo, privando i lettori di tantissime altre storie fantastiche. I racconti sono 11, tutti di alto livello tranne un paio di storie. 5 storie poi sono di livello altissimo. San Diego Lightfoot Sue che da il titolo alla raccolta vale da solo l' acquisto. Un adolescente rimasto orfano lascia il Kansas e si trasferisce a Los Angeles. Nella città attirerà con la sua ingenuità una miriade di personaggi bizzarri, trovando pure l'amore. Il giovane Detweiler è un altro capolavoro. Si tratta di una gustosa storia del genere hard boiled, dove il classico investigatore privato di una Los Angeles sporca e cattiva, scopre che ogni tre giorni una persona muore nelle vicinanze in cui ha pernottato un bellissimo giovane affetto da una spiacevole deformità. Aspettando Billy Star è invece una storia malinconica, la storia di un amore inspiegabile che sconvolge il sonnacchioso equilibrio di una tavola calda in una cittadina desolata del Texas. Sotto la scritta di Hollywood narra le vicende di un poliziotto che scopre che sul luogo di tremendi incidenti, tra la folla è sempre presente un bellissimo ragazzo dai capelli rossi. Twilla invece ci parla di una strana ragazzina che si trasferisce in una cittadina del Kansas e pare avere un fortissimo ascendente sui nuovi compagni di classe. La sua insegnante comincia a indagare. Capolavoro. Voto 10 #weirdstories #weird #edizionihypnos #storiefantastiche #storieinquietanti #bookstagram #bookstagramitalia

🐙 #TheWeird by #JeffVanderMeer & #AnnVanderMeer // Finally finished all 110 stories in this 1,126 page, double columned behemoth of a book! It’s organized chronologically so I got stuck for awhile around the 1980s which is my least favorite period of weird fiction, but things picked up again for me around the late 1990s. Unsurprisingly, most of my favorites in this collection were written in the early half of the 1900s, but I also enjoyed a bunch of more recent stories and overall, this was an excellent journey through the history of weird fiction. A lot of my favorites here were either rereads or from authors I already know and love (Jackson, du Maurier, Aickman, VanderMeer and Martin), but I also discovered some new to me authors who I’m excited to read more from. Below is a list of my favorite stories from the collection. ~ 📖 “How Nuth Would Have Practiced His Art Upon the Gnoles” by #LordDunsany 📖 “The Book” by #MargaretIrwin 📖 “The Mainz Psalter” by #JeanRay 📖 “Mimic” by #DonaldAWollheim 📖 “The Summer People” by #ShirleyJackson (reread) 📖 “Don’t Look Now” by #DaphneduMaurier 📖 “The Hospice” by #RobertAickman (reread) 📖 “Sandkings” by #GeorgeRRMartin 📖 “Window” by #BobLeman 📖 “Last Rites and Resurrections” by #MartinSimpson 📖 “The Ocean and All Its Devices” by #WilliamBrowningSpencer 📖 “The Cage” by Jeff VanderMeer (reread) ~ ~ ~ #weirdstories #weirdfiction #shortstories #shortstorycollection #anthology #shortstoryanthology #weirdwriters #book #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookstagrammer #bookworm #bookcommunity #read #reading #readers

🐙 THE CALL OF CTHULHU and OTHER WEIRD STORIES 🐙 🖋️ H.P. LOVECRAFT 📚 PENGUIN CLASSIC ** Thank You @lobblast for this wonderful gift ** Frequently imitated and widely influential, Howard Phillips Lovecraft reinvented the genre of horror in the twentieth century, discarding ghosts and witches and instead envisioning mankind as a tiny outpost of dwindling sanity in a chaotic and malevolent uni- verse. In this volume, Lovecraft's preeminent inter- preter S. T. Joshi presents a selection of the master's fiction, from early tales of nightmares and madness such as "The Outsider" and "The Rats in the Walls" to the overpowering cosmic terror of "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" and "The Call of Cthulhu." More than just a collection of terrifying tales, this definitive edition reveals the development of Lovecraft's mesmerizing narrative style and establishes him as a canonical-and visionary-American writer. "I think it is beyond doubt that H. P. Lovecraft has yet to be surpassed as the twentieth century's great- est practitioner of the classic horror tale." -Stephen King "H. P. Lovecraft built the stage on which most of the age of last century's horror fiction was performed. As doomed as any of his protagonists, he puts a world view into words that have spread to infect the world. You need to read him-he's where the darkness starts." -Neil Gaiman #hplovecraft #penguinclassics #horrorstories #horror #thecallofcthulhu #book #books #booklover #bookstagram #mystery #fantasy #bookreview #kolkata #bookrecommendations #booknerd #bookaddict #bookphotography #bookblogger #dystopian #novel #goodreads #bookish #bookinstagram #readers #bibliophile #bookreader #bdbookstagramers #weirdstories #kolkatabookstagrammers #booklover #kolkatabookfair

Sories of Lost Souls - Stories from the edge of reality which impinge upon the reality of the present. Mysteries, murders, and fantastic tales. Set mostly around Bristol these stories all have a similar theme and link. The link is a man. But why does he seem to entrap his victims? What use does he have for them? What is their fate? #shortstories #mysterystories #weirdstories #shortstory https://www.pfdamsberg.com/short-stories

3 Little Known Facts About Me: 1. I once had aspirations of competing at the XGames in Aggressive Inline Skating. Funny story- Years after training in Edmonton with my friend Andrew, I ran into him at the Earls in Whistler (at this point he had become a well known snowboarder). When we greeted each other, he leaned in and discreetly asked me not to let on to his friends that he ever used to inline skate. How rude. 2. When I played volleyball in the Faroe Islands, I worked in a fish factory on the side in order to make some extra cash and avoid getting bored between practices. I got fired from the conveyor belt (weighing fish) because I was too slow and they’d end up all over the floor. But then I got tendinitis from building tote boxes in the factory all day, so I became a nanny for a missionary family from Hawaii. When they realized I couldn’t drive down the narrow cobblestone roads without clipping other vehicles, I resorted back to just playing volleyball. 3. I attended 6 different colleges and universities after graduating from high school. U of Winnipeg and U of A to play volleyball, U of C so I could ride bikes while I finished University; Mount Royal to start my RMT certification (but never completed), NWHSU in Minneapolis to begin my Chiropractic Doctorate and WSCC in Portland to finish it. (Of note: I lived downtown Winnipeg on the street with the highest murder rate in Canada, but it was cheap and directly across from the University.) I hope you enjoyed a little glimpse into my special little past. Please normalize my weirdness by sharing yours. 5 points if you can name the college in these pictures! #weirdstories #interestingfacts #aboutme #whatmakesmehappy #chiropractics #volleyball #mountainbiking #fruitbooter #aggressiveinlineskating

The penny features intricate design and details that make it a valuable addition to any collection. This beautiful 1960 D Lincoln is perfect for those interested in Fraternal Organizations, Masonic, Freemasonry, Historical Memorabilia, and Tokens & Masonic Coins. This 1960 D Lincoln Penny appears stamped with the Masonic G and the Masonic Square & Compass. History I have found: - The Masonic “penny” symbolizes the “mark” of participation received by a member of the Free and Accepted Masons. It was also used as a reminder to Masons of the fundamental ideals of Freemasonry. - Masonic G: Some say it’s as simple as standing for ‘God’ and ‘Geometry’. Others believe it represents the word ‘Gnosis’, meaning the knowledge of spiritual mysteries, which is a big component of Masonry. Others still devise that the letter G in ancient Hebrew had a numerical value of 3, which is highly referenced throughout history when talking about God. - Masonic Square & Compass: The Square and Compasses are really the most well known or recognized Freemason symbol. The meaning behind it is quite literal, with the square representing morality in that Freemasons need to ‘square [their] actions by the square of virtue with all mankind’. The compass then measures the ability to wisely conduct actions within certain boundaries. In other words, together the Square and Compasses remind Freemasons to explore their desires and passions without stepping outside the realms of moral behaviour. Anyone else has history on these coins please message me. I am greatly interested in learning more about them.

Music labels before digital music had minimum order requirements that you had to buy in order to buy from them. I am not sure when this minimum purchase order requirement changed but I am estimating early to mid 2000’s because that is when the family business closed. Mom and pop stores usually would not order enough to meet the minimum order so there was an industry of music middlemen. My father and his family used to be some of them. They were middlemen buying music & records from music labels and then selling to mom and pop record shops around New York. My father obtained these collectible Elvis Presley 1975 calendar cards from the RCA record label. This vintage 1975 card calendar features the iconic Elvis Presley and includes images of the rock & roll legend. Produced by RCA Records, this original piece of music memorabilia was made in the United States. It is a must-have for any avid Elvis Presley fan and collector. There may be slight scratches, worn edge or scuffs. Item delivered may be slightly better or slightly worse than stock photo. These have sat in my fathers desk for the last 40+ years. The collectible card measures 2 1/4” x 3 7/8” and considering that these cards over 40 years old they are in great condition. Own a piece of music history.

"La casa del Giudice" è un racconto di Bram Stoker pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1891. Una casa dalla fama sinistra, in passato abitata da un giudice che, nella sua carriera, ha "appeso" diversi galeotti, viene scelta da un giovane come rifugio per i suoi studi ma la sua attività è turbata costantemente dalle miriadi di topi che infestano la magione. L'apparizione, un giorno, di un enorme ratto dagli occhi scintillanti darà inizio agli eventi che seguiranno... Una delle più classiche storie di fantasmi che possiate leggere, scritta da un vero maestro del terrore🦇 #lacasadelgiudice #horror #horrorbooks #gothic #gotika #weirdstories #bramstoker

FORWARD HE WAS AWAKE. Wait. That might not be right. Was this waking? Had he always been like this? Was he a he? …she? …something in the in-between? It didn’t matter. She pulled himself up (Maybe he was already up.) and took stock of her form. Her body struggling to take definition. But her being would settle on neither shape nor color nor species. It strayed outside of its boundaries and rippled with possibility. The world shuddered at this new uncertainty. Horns. She did have horns though …lovely horns. Those would come in handy. http://thurdy.com/Oddities.php #shortstorycollection #shortstorywriter #weirdstories

I went on a morning stroll and came across this fella. He introduced himself as Turl. When I asked what he was up to, he gave me the strangest look and said, "Well, isn't it obvious??? I'm shucking corn.... I said, "But aren't you supposed to cut it down first? Turl replied with a shrug and ran off into the fields to shuck more corn 🌽 . . . . . #dailycreating #createeveryday #funnyart #weirdstories #oneeyeddog #yellowdog #unusualart #distorted #sundaypost #outsiderartist #folkart #weirdanimals #lovepainting #flaming_abstracts #artlovers #artphotos #surreal #surrealism #paintingsdaily #folksy #storytelling #surrealportrait #popartstyle #bohemianinterior #whimsicalstyle #weirdfarmanimal #funkydog #Florida #Floridaartist #katcooper

Saw a local blue heron while on a walk yesterday, and TW: crazy gross nature story below… … A few minutes before this photo, she flew right over me and my friend, and BAM! She dropped torn up bird remains about 10-20’ in front of us. I may or may not have screamed expletives. Wow, I still can’t get over it. Has this ever happened to you? So bizarre and SO thankful we weren’t a few more steps forward in that moment. // #weirdstories #birdlover #portlandoregon #portlandaudubon #audubon #wildlife #crazywild #naturestories #nature

♡my first 5 starst read of the year♡ #bunny by Mona Awad the whole time reading this book, I was thinking how cool it would be this as a movie, with Heathers and Mean Girls vibes ✨️ Loved the writing, especially how the narration changed throughout the story. It was so inmersive that it felt so real, although everything was top notch ridiculous. have you had any 5 stars so far this year?💕 #bookblogger #books #bookstagram #monaawad #bunnies #weirdstories #lit #funny #booklove #bookworm #recebtlyread #5starsbook #favoritereads #coquette #girly #reads #readingupdate

This is super weird, but I've been spitting out a bunch of Willy Wonka flavored brain vomit out on wattpad for the past few months. My mind offten gets these weird ideas and obsessions and I can't really do anything about that, but I decided to throw some of them out there for people to see because why not? I SUCK at writing, but I have been getting just a little bit better from the practice. So one of these is a super cursed AU that I made, another is a kind of short story, and the other is some older stuff I wrote. I'd love some reviews and constructive criticism. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #fanfiction #willywonka #charlieandthechocolatefactory #charlieandthechocolatefactoryfanfiction #willywonkafanfiction #alternateuniverse #alternateuniversefanfiction #willywonkaau #cursedfanfiction #writingpractice #constructivecriticism #weirdstories #fanfictionideas #fanfictionpromts #writingpromts #storypromts #storyideas #wattpad #wattpadfanfiction
