What stencils/designs are you guys gonna use to carve your pumpkins this year?
>>41036134
Do you guys ever browse the rest of this board? I hardly ever use /x/ except around this time of the year. I mostly just lurk pol. I tried getting into x but, half the time I can't understand what people are even talking about. I had to learn about Gnosticism for a lot of things to make sense. Even after that, a good chunk of what people talk about here is just a bunch of gibberish to me.
https://youtu.be/IhhOTqtYDw4Here's a fun RPGmaker Game for Halloween~ Well, it's a Let's Play of it, but still, I think it counts in the spirit of things.Enjoy! Thread #2 Yay! :D
>>41036466Usually just this and the story/creepypasta threads
>>41036466>Do you guys ever browse the rest of this board?Only on occasion. Outside of /hal/, it's pretty difficult to have a sincere, coherent discussion about anything. This thread exists as a comfy oasis in a desert of schizophrenic conceit.
>>41036202I'm thinking about doing a crow.>>41036466I used to hang out in the greentext threads more, but I haven't been doing it as much. Too much innawoods blud n cooper I guess. Not that there's anything wrong with those, but it just seems like all people post, and always the same ones.Sometimes a weird thread might catch my eye, I've found some pretty cool house sitting/urbex threads here.
I'll have to break this one out soon.
>>41036134HH (happy halloween)
Redid and started my movie a day watches.
>>41037840
where the pumpkin ale homies at? more festive halloween/autumn drink suggestions would be appreciated.
>>41037513/x/ kinda got me into gnosticism. i've had an interest in it ever since. >>41036979yup. it's mostly semi coherent schizobabble.
i posted this song in one of these threads like two seasons ago. https://youtu.be/DencCEwzcoE?si=41Qr6OG1Zenw7-P-
>>41037743
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7RGxtDxRF4One of my favorite spooky season songs, especially combined with the video.The guitarist/singer worked at a music shop I frequented in high school, I've been to several of their shows. I'm not sure if they're still playing, COVID might have killed them and I'm also not much a concert-goer anymore.
>>41038225Had some Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin ale yesterday. One of my favorites. Good pumpkiny flavor with a bit of heat on the back end. Very warming.
>>41038739I thought the Voodoo Ranger brand was just IPAs. I’ll have to check that out
Still haven’t decided on a Halloween costume, only the spookiest allowed.Dubs choose what I make!

>>41036134I think it was 2023, I went to a haunted house attraction which was really fun and the moon was just like that in OP's picture. I distinctly remember walking through a section and they had a dead tree and I saw the bright moon through the tree limbs, what an atmosphere. On the drive back the clouds were rolling low just like in the pic but heavier and it was so majestic. This October is going to be great frens.
>>41039473Were you the one who originally posted this a few years ago? I usually post it every year at least once because it was introduced to me in one of these threads. Great track.
>>41039591It was probably me yeah, I try to post it every year at least a few times. It's such a perfect song and video for the season.
>>41038225Not ale but a cider. Tried some yesterday, can't say if I liked it or not because I was already several beers on when I tried it. I have two more left that I'll save for the next day off.
>>41030672>I still have the other two as well if you wan them. It'd be cool to see these, if you're still around.>Last year I had this idea for what I thought would be a really neat animation, but personal issues meant I couldn't complete it and ended up just posting a screenshot of it. Maybe I could finish it this year instead to give myself something to work on.Hope things are better now. I'm certain most anons here would appreciate whatever you make.
>>41036134Ma, there's a weird looking cat
>>41037840>>41037845Based>the Scooby doo projectLooks fucking kino (no spoilers please)>>41040073>I'm certain most anons here would appreciate whatever you makeI know I would
>>41036134It's Bobbie! I recognize this cat. She is a princess
>>41036466I really just skim the catalogue and read creepypasta, greentext, or the occasional thread that looks interesting.
>>41036535Sick, I haven't played that one!If you like spooky RPG Maker games, I've made a few:https://darkrideentertainment.itch.io/
>>41041198>Bobbie the Persian looks just like Bobby LieblingWe live in a simulation.>>41039199Bobby Liebling
This is another good spooky game for the season, I played the demo before it came out and bought it day 1. I have yet to finish it but the atmosphere is perfect.
podcasts for spooky stories?
>>41041198>>41043072What even is this reality>>41039199Gonna have to second this Bobby Liebling idea now
I bought some pumpkin beers because of y'all. I'll report back if it is good. It isn't any kind I have heard y'all talk about before.
>>41045783hope they're good anon
>>41045783Please list whatever they are
>>41037585Is this the chainlink guy?
You guys have any local legends near your areas? There was an abandoned state prison that was supposedly haunted but it was mostly destroyed a few years ago by tornadoes. I'm also only a few hours away from the Bell Witch cave, and there's a local legend about a yeti-like monster that was supposedly hit and killed by a car on a pretty well-known back road in one of the towns near me. The (very obviously fake) head of the dead creature was displayed in a local antique shop for most of my childhood until the shop shut down, so I assume the owner probably kept it. It's a cool little legend even if it's obviously bullshit.Share your stories, fellow spookybros.
>>41039199Bob from Twin Peaks
>>41045886We used to tell stories of someone called "The White Witch" when we were kids to scare each other. Theres no actual evidence of there ever being a witch who lived nearby though since we lived in some small farming town in the midwest. But we used to make shit up about stuff happening in the 1900s to see if we could freak each other out when we were outside in the dark past our bedtimes
>>41046044Fuck yeah the exorcist.
>>41046090One of the best movies ever made imo. I have a buddy who doesn't care for horror and even he loves it.
>>41045847>>41045859I tried Smash Pumpkin from Shipyard. It wasn’t too good on the pumpkin taste. It tasted like a dark beer with some spices added to me. I can’t say I enjoyed it too much, and I wouldn’t recommend it. I’m not a huge beer drinker so it might be worth it if you know you have a good palette. If you don’t, I would skip it.
>>41036466/x/ is the lowest IQ board for a reason. It's all circle jerkers pretending to have forbidden knowledge. If you ask them for details, they give generalizations and vague answers. Also all the gold spooky threads died many, many years ago.
>>41042803Neat. Didn't Manlybadasshero cover one or two of those on his youtube channel?
>>41045886We have a supposedly haunted street where lots of shit supposedly happened but really it's just a really poorly lit street with a lot of junkies, homeless, and detritus. Still was fun in high school to try driving down it and scare each other lol, and lots of kids visit on Halloween. To be fair some people swear it's truly paranormal, but my friends and I never experienced anything. I mean there were a few real things, KKK meetings, robberies/assaults, dead bodies dumped there after murders, satanists (teenagers larping), gang fights, mutilated animal corpses, etc. The urban legends from this real stuff got exaggerated, like ghostly KKK lynchings, ghostly police cars that follow you and when you pull over, vanish, Satanist witch ghosts doing a ritual, and similar.Nowadays there's residential development beginning to encroach on it so its days are probably numbered, honestly.
>>41039199George Floyd with blackface and angel wings
>>41040073Yeah I'm always in these threads when they come around. Here's one of the others I did. The >/x/ Halloween Generalpart is more sneaky though.The other is a webm, but it's too dark, even the Ouija one is too dark tbf. I might redo the webm one and fix the lighting on it if I can. >Hope things are better nowThey are, thanks anon. They're getting there at least and that's good enough.>>41040854>I know I wouldThanks fren!
>>41046090>tfw started frequenting charity shops>tfw found the Exorcist special edition VHS and the Shining VHS for 50 pence each>tfw don't even have a VCR anymoreThey had A Nightmare on Elm Street II as well, but I forgot to pick it up when I was getting other stuff and when I went back it was gone.Even though I don't have a VCR anymore they're still nice little things to have.
>>41048495Nice find, bro!Classic
>>41047238Yeah basically. I don't even know why I come anymore.
>>41048031>The urban legends from this real stuff got exaggerated, like ghostly KKK lynchings, ghostly police cars that follow you and when you pull over, vanish, Satanist witch ghosts doing a ritualThat's pretty cool, love stuff like that even if it's bullshit. Being followed by ghost cars in particular stands out to me, I think it was because I loved Speed Racer as a kid and there was an episode about a car being so infamous that Speed's dad speculated that it could have become a ghost after supposedly being destroyed. I'm not sure why that stuck with me all the way into adulthood.>>41048495Yeah those are cool to have just as collector's items. VCRs feel so nostalgic to me. Gotta make sure to adjust the tracking and rewind when you're done watching.
>>41047238/x/ is absolutely the lowest IQ board. A while back there was a thread about a psychic ability test people got in elementary school. I thought it sounded like an IQ test for 3rd graders, so I posted a pic of a multiple choice sample question asking if this was it. Post got a bunch of replies guessing the answer to the question in the pic. Most of them were wrong. Again, it was the “introduce you to the test format” sample question from an IQ test for third graders
>>41047238exactly! these fuckers act all mysterious n shit, like they no something we dont. but its all bs.i miss the ghost story threads and similar topics..
>>41049449To be fair, I'd probably fail it too, lmao. But I don't participate in whatever bullshit a lot of /×/ users spew here. (The nobody, de-worming(?), blue Eisenhower november, law of attraction, etc etc, its all fucking retarded.)
>>41049462>how 2 soomun tulpa/succubus>generic "they are lying to you" conspiracy thread>le flat earth shitposting thread>greentext thread with the same 5 skinwalker pastas spammed on a loop>some gay thread about shit that's sort of maybe kinda tangentially related to /x/, like the unsolved Zodiac ciphers or Cicada 3301>"bro what do dreams mean"It's all so tiresome. I just want a good urbex thread with some spooky undertones even if everyone knows it's all a LARP. But if you try to make one the thread gets flooded with fucking retards screaming "FAKE" until the OP gets tired of it and stops posting.
Should start cooling down in my area this week, good time to start decorating. Need to pick up some lights and a fall wreath.
Anybody try this? https://bevmo.com/products/14284
>>41049497We can’t have urbex threads because nobody goes outside to investigate shit themselves anymore. I do, but I’m physically incapable of LARPing, so I’ll only post if I actually encounter something, which I haven’t yet.
>>41048495>50p/tape>no VCRIf nothing else, buying the tapes might be a cheap way to "justify" the digital five-finger-discount. Is torrenting really piracy if you've already purchased the titles elsewhere?>>41047238>/x/ is the lowest IQ board for a reason. I'm honestly a little bit surprised /x/ is as coherent as it is, since marked cognitive decline is a pretty universal feature of the psychotic mental illness drawn to this board. I guess the bots and coomers offset some of the schizobabble.
>>41049727>Is torrenting really piracy if you've already purchased the titles elsewhere?Weirdly, when torrenting started to become way more popular around 15 years ago, I actually read about this. Turns out if you have a copy of something then you are legally allowed to make a backup copy for yourself. Whether that's burning it and making a backup or downloading a torrent doesn't matter because you're legally allowed that backup.With much less hooha, but no doubt still on a massive scale, it was/is illegal to record films that are shown on TV using a VCR. Again, unless you already owned that film already. Obviously that was always going to be way harder to seek out and prosecute compared to now. Hence why there was less fuss about it at the time.Has the law changed? I have no idea, but it wouldn't surprise me if it had. Either way, now you know!
>>41045473Halloween kitsch is one of my all time favorite aestheticsAlready starting to get fall colors and see pumpkins out in northern New Hampshire, it's happening
>>41049427I grew up in Queens, NY and when a childhood friend moved out to Nassau County he got a car and we started driving all over the place. We used to always drive to Sweet Hollow Road and Mt. Misery Road, which were supposedly haunted. These were winding wooded roads, which were frequently foggy because of their proximity to the water. Supposedly the most frequent apparitions, which dated back to the days of horse drawn carriages, were human shapes that darted across the road causing drivers to crash. There's was also a bridge where your car would be scratched up if you turned it off at night. My friend never wanted to try it. "On the off chance that it's true, I really don't want my car getting scratched up." We never saw anything but the atmosphere was awesome. We had good times there. One night we were in a group and two people were sure they heard a voice say "get out" when were pulled over, but I think they were just psyching themselves out.
>>41050281That sounds so fucking cool. Even not experiencing anything, the atmosphere just sounds perfect.
>>41050374Beat its ass, Batman
>>41049497I miss those old urbex threads, or people telling some sort of spooky story through unfocused pictures they took around the house that maybe sorta look creepy cause its dark. All of them were fake but theres something kind of fun about reading a thread where OP is being haunted in real time and you're sitting in the dark with some beers and a pizza legitimately being scared wondering where its gonna go. Yeah you had your thread shitters but if everyone was playing along it felt like an interactive spooky story.
>>41050836This is one of my favorites.https://archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/17306313/It got pretty gay towards the end of the LARP but man I had a fun time posting in that thread.
>>41050845Oh hells yeah. Time to read. Thanks anon!
>>41050866Cheers friend. Here's another one I periodically revisit.https://archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/13222876/
>>41050866And one more.https://archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/15417893/#q15417893This one goes on for quite a few threads and is probably my overall favorite. It's a very believable LARP to the point that I sometimes think it might not actually be a LARP.
>>41045886I'm in Poughkeepsie. Hudson Valley is number one in the nation for number of UFO sightings, apparently, and Poughkeepsie in particular has a massive "witchcraft" community. Lots of esoteric businesses and people who take it seriously. They throw events sometimes. We have an abandoned asylum which is allegedly haunted. A high priest of Satan lives here and I've seen him once. But for all that, no real cryptids or ghost stories in the area. Everyone's still enchanted by the serial killer we had some time ago, and I think there's too many crackheads for night creatures to compete with in the public mindshare.
>>41050936>and Poughkeepsie in particular has a massive "witchcraft" community. Lots of esoteric businesses and people who take it seriously.That's pretty neat. What kinds of businesses? Like weird little crystal shops or do they go really hard?
>>41050942It's crystal bullshit, by and large, but there's a lot of such shops for such a small city and a couple of them are run by avowed Satanists, which is pretty neat. The cooler things are the events that get put on, there's a couple esoteric organizations that do events on every pagan holiday which is a combination of vendor fair, performance, and ritual. Those are pretty sweet - that's where I saw the high priest of Satan, he did a surprise appearance at one of those events that I was at, to perform a vow renewal for a satan worshipping couple. The performances can be anything from a lame drag show to a woman pounding nails into her own face, so it's hit and miss.
>>41050974>there's a couple esoteric organizations that do events on every pagan holiday which is a combination of vendor fair, performance, and ritual.That is cool as fuck, I would love to go to something like that. Where I'm at anything even hinting at paganism would get shot the fuck down.
>>41050974There was a scandal in Massachusetts a few years ago where a morgue manager at Harvard was caught illegally flipping cadavers on the black market, including to a "haunted doll" store in Peabody which would make dolls using real hair from the bodies. I find this so fascinating because these sorts of 'haunted item' stores are normally just a cheesy gimmick but the owner was going out of her way to commit major felonies in order to provide authentic creepy dolls in a way she wasn't even able to advertise to the customers (because, again, it was highly illegal)
>>41050974How big are these nails?
bought one of these at Costco todayfat nigga season has arrived bros
I read The Troop by Nick Cutter. I would recommend it for anyone wanting an easy to read horror novel. It's about a boy scout troop trapped on an island with a man that has a super infectious tapeworm. It's interesting because there are newspaper clips between most chapters to tell more information that the kids wouldn't know without breaking the flow of the story.
