August It's almost ending and there's no Halloween General?
Focus on vintage please. And can we keep it AI free?
>>42855632Incredible. I was just thinking it's been too long since a good Halloween aesthetic thread.
I need halloween ads please, the older the better
Not on pc so take this small contribution. I'll be monitoring the thread.
Technically this should be halloween general #2 but I'm happy nevertheless
It's getting closer. The mornings are getting cooler, sunsets coming a lot earlier. We're almost there I can't wait!
I hate summer so fucking much, bros.I'm just glad this heat is finally fucking over.Fall is the comfiest season.
>>42857660The sky is different now, like more real. For months and months and maybe years, it seemed so fake. I notice there’s no stars anymore even out in the really rural places with no light pollution. Now I’ve seen the sky do crazy things every day for about a week or 2, it looks totally different.
BumpGoddammit I hate this fucking board. >make it less interestingFucking indeed
so there are no longer good halloween specials in the TV?
>>42859691Everything is pozzed to the gills and uses bad animation/CGI. There's so much old stuff to watch anyway.
I'm pregnant and my due date is Halloween. Not sure if being born on Halloween would be a good or bad thing or something I should try to avoid or not.
Here's an archive I madehttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NaN4lPrX-LylvZKm22KAvFVXQprx6wiS
>>42859878any name considered?
>>42859878Why would it be bad? Halloween was originally Samhain.( Sow-wen )The practice was to ward off evil spirits by pretending to be them. Burning big bonfires to keep the spooks at bay. All other general shenanigans came later, like carving turnips, the trick or treating, etc. Some of you fuckers need to read up on your holiday lore.
it feels like fall and Halloween are so close. its on the horizon
You guys think the Great Pumpkin is gonna show up this year?
>>42859790I don't have a problem with creepy media being "pozzed." Black and ghetto culture has a lot of potential to be creepy as fuck and is an underused genre in horror in my opinion. Last year around October I went on a Memphis horrorcore kick. It's the only genre of hip hop that really connects to me and sounds steeped in black magic.Also, Tales From the Hood is an all-around classic.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vjwA1IkIRk
Black people don't fuck with horror because their lives are already a nightmare.*pushes up poindexter ass glasses*
>>42863085Rly made me think
>>42859878I know someone born on Halloween, also there are many well known people born on HalloweenNot a bad birthday at all, your kid would be a Scorpio, probably mischievous in a harmless way one way or another, possibly overly-dramatic like Keats was, the actor who played Bob in Twin Peaks was born in Halloween and I think you can clearly see that energy in him. If he is due for Halloween then that would be what their soul wants, and it would probably would help them achieve what he would want him to achieve throughout their life, don’t change it out of superstition
>>42859878My mom's bday is Halloween, and she always loved it. Halloween was always special growing up.
>2003, middle of October>Check these books out of the school library>Read them while outside is cold, heavy grey clouds, high winds blow the leaves off trees and it's starting to rain
>>42859878My dad missed being born on Halloween by 4 hours.
>30s>halloween doesnt feel the same30+ gang what do you guys do around fall/halloween?
>>42859906Hells yeah. I know what I'm watching.
>>42863747My uncle also missed it by a few hours.
>>42863778I watch this movie.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLQ4o6ezAl4
>>42855632Summer was nice but I’m ready for it to be over. The first of September will be the start of fall for me.
>>42863520My nigga>>42863778I go all out on decorations. I hand out candy in those little vintage paper treat bags. Have horror themed music on with a classic horror movie playing on mute.
>>42855663Yeah a long time like last Halloween, dipshit
>>42863778I enjoy autumn. It's the best season. Spooky comfy feels can never be aged out of.Visit a few crumbling graveyards or ruins deep in the woods under the light of the Hunter's Moon and tell me you aren't feeling the halloween spirit... and several other spirits besides.
Soon...
>>42855632Come on gang, share some spooky stories for the thread.My friend and I once heard his little sister yelling for us downstairs while we were playing Halo 3 upstairs.His little sister was not in the house at all, and came home an hour later with his mom and dad after a day of shopping.
>>42855673
>>42857660>The mornings are getting coolerWhere the fuck do you live, buddy?
>>42859906Why doesn't this general ever hold synchtube streams throughout October? /co/ does it
>>42863778>what do you guys do around fall/halloweenWork. I'm thinking about quitting and dumping my savings into the stock market though, so maybe this year I'll get to pig out on candy and buy some soft rugs to meditate on in the dark
>>42868014Eto. :)
>>42863778Listen to some vintage audio drama on youtube or leave Halloween commercial compilations on. Watch whatever old Halloween specials you can track down, or put on a horror host(wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Horror_hosts). Some things you have to sail the high seas for, but many can be found on streaming/YouTube. Plan watch parties with friends/family, or find them online (cytuDOTbe). Make seasonal meals/drinks/desserts out of seasonal items/spices. I've been making pumpkin bread and grilling squash. If you don't freak at the concept of pumpkin spice make some seasonal coffee or tea at home, or get some hard cider if you drink.Go to events in your area. Where I am we have horror movie showings throughout the month at a local arthouse theatre, sometimes there are even movie screenings in cemeteries. Seeing movies in October with a great crowd was a highlight of the season for me last year. You could check your local venues for fitting concerts and events. Halloween parties/bar crawls are popular, and you can check your city for any other events, even libraries do little seasonal things sometimes. There are pumpkin patches and haunted hayrides all over the country, and carnival-style popups show up every year. You could go to some local haunts or one of the big theme park events, go on a ghost tour or do some urban exploration of your own. Read some old gothic fiction, or read stories with friends around a campfire or abandoned building.Visit a Halloween store or check your local thrift/antique shops. Decorate your place with classic die cuts and ceramic knick knacks, or go all out and make a spectacle out of it. Do your own mini haunt or volunteer at one, meet some new people. If you want to get in the spirit a little earlier next year you could go to midsummer scream or one of the many different horror/propmaker conventions that happen throughout the whole year. Big or small the season is only what you make of it, so make it something you'd enjoy.
Halloween is what you make of it. I take the last week of October off work every year and immerse myself in horror media, consume pumpkin beers, go for walks in the cemetery, stay up late and generally chill out in the cooler weather
>>42863520Does anyone remember the "book bus"? It was the lesser cousin of the Scholastic Book Fair that came around more frequently, like a mobile library. Introduced me to the trifecta of cheesy kids horror in Goosebumps, Scary Stories, and Ripley's Believe it or Not.
>>42867758No one, really?
>>42868385I've always wanted to have a spooky experience but I never have
>>42868385>>42868426Same. I'm open to the paranormal, but in practice I'm too rational to think that noise I heard while exploring an abandoned building chanting the summoning chant of an abyssal deity was anything but a homeless person that ate a can of beans. Maybe it's just me, but it's hard to believe ancient demons of wisdom sound like a bologna windmill slapping into mud. I grew up around the hyper religious(some of whom were legitimately schizophrenic) so I adapted to be aware of when someone is having an episode, larping, or otherwise fabricating a genuine religious experience. I can vividly remember what it's like to be a frightened child because everyone's whipped up into a religious psychosis. "Humans are le real monsters" and all that. For what it's worth, I think we're all larping all the time whether we like it or not. We're built to larp as human, the same way we're built to suck air in and out of our lungs. After all, life itself is only a vision, a dream. Nothing exists save empty space - and you. And you are but a thought.
Anyone familiar with the Bogie Book, or other such guidebooks from way back? You'd be surprised how much of this kind of thing you can find on the internet archive, so if anyone's interested definitely do a deep dive there.

>>42868254not really but I remember spending time in the library and being amazed by just how many lines of horror books that jew mothafucka didand later I found out rl stine got tons of adaptations of his non-goosebumps books too. tv specials, movies, the whole kit n kaboodle. ik lost media's a horror discussion cliche at this point, but does anyone remember when nickelodeon (circa 12-14) did an rl stine anthology show? ik it was shortly after the haunting hour on the pony network. I remember watching the premiere and all I can remember about it is a group of kids get on a haunted hayride, and I think one of the kids parents gets turned into jackolanternsi've never been able to find any info on it.. but one avenue I never considered exploring was the copious amounts of woc archives on yt. I just recently used that method to track down a disturbing-as-all-hell adult swim ident i thought for the longest time was the product of demonic dream possession
>>428683851/?Ok, in the house I grew up in the door between the kitchen and utility room was a full length double door with them spring loaded saloon hinges.>be 5yo>sitting at the kitchen table drawing with my crayons on typing paper>hear a bump and look up>both doors are open as far as they can, nothing there but the open doors>doors stay open for 6-7 seconds then flap,flap,flap as the doors were released and the spring hinges settled them back closed>yelled for dad>dad came, I explained the situation >"it was just the wind" and he went back to the living room with me following nope'ing the fuck out of the kitchen There wasn't any air movement. Must have been something just passing through as it was the only odd thing I experienced in the house.
>>428690362/?This is a very silly 4chan style one. A couple years back for about a month and a half my smoke detector would go off for one cycle. It only did it when I got in the mood and started to "rub one out" so to say. I mean as soon as I start beep*beep*beep*fire. I'm not some chronic masturbator or anything, maybe 3-4 times a week, but EVERY time I started beep*beep*beep*fire. It was like what, is Grandma coming to check in on me and she didn't what to see that shit? It was just so odd that the smoke detector only did that when I was self pleasuring.
>>42855663
>>42867758
>>42868818Satan?>>42869036Winmbdy ghost.>>42869101Lol.
>>42867758I work at a furniture store as a warehouse guy. I'm convinced the place is haunted. Everyone there has had some kind of weird experience. One time I was upstairs just organizing some chairs before closing, I'm up there by myself and I look towards the stairs and see a chair in the middle of the walkway. Stared at the chair for a few minutes and noped out of there.Another time I was in the warehouse full of new merchandise. I'm in there by myself about to take a picture of a cool looking statue and I hear this sound, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2jZmXePKV0&t=0Absolutely bolted from the warehouse to the front of the store, my coworkers freaking out asking "anon are you ok?" And I'm just pointing to the warehouse saying "phone!" phone!" Just in a panic. Spent the rest of the day in the store. We never find out what made that sound but it scared the shit out of me. So there you go. Furniture store I work at is haunted. Kinda weird when I think about it.
>>42869404Cheeky fucker.>>42869870Spooky! I've heard of haunted phone stories in buildings before. People will here the old timey ring of ones that used to be there. Or they will still have the old timey phone installed, but none of the electronics are connected, and it will go off.Very eerie.
Ah finally >Its ok to be white generalWe need to spam here and /pol to put up signs everywhere come Halloween night.You all know what to do, get to work baking threads!
>>42861717Only if you really believe
Yay I knew I would find the Halloween thread around now.wheeeee
>>42855632I have been thinking about starting halloween early out of boredom
>>42870199Do eeet! Join us!
Halloween has gotten too commercial. I think I'll stop celebrating it.
>>42870228celebrate it your way. Its what I do.
>>42870228You can celebrate Halloween without buying stuff. Really.
>>42870228>>42870250>>42870251Whoah everybody, slow the fuck down.This guy we don't know and will never meet just came ALL THE WAY to this thread here to tell YOU, that he is IN FACT, NOT celebrating ANYMORE. So shut the fuck up and cancel your plans. Adjust your mentality. Really take some time to try to get used to this new reality you are living in. As hard as this will be for you to do, just go total factory reset. Because this guy? He doesn't fuck with no COMMERCIAL holiday, he's fuckin rebel. He's not like the other boys. He doesn't HAVE a social security number. He only pays for his matcha lattes with Malaysian cryptocurrency, because he doesn't want to participate in CONSUMER behavior. He went vegan sixteen years ago, and he's only 17. Not old enough to post here, you say? Well he doesn't give a shit, because that's just how willing he is to defy your commercial expectations.Shine on you crazy diamond is all I have to say, really.
>>42870580I'm old enough to be your dad. You have to be at least 30 years old to post on 4chan. I'm just tired of companies trying to capitalize on Generation X's and Y's nostalgia for Halloween by forcing it to be the "next Christmas".
>>42872619Then don't participate. I just don't give a fuck about what you're NOT doing. This isn't your personal blog, yet you actually felt the need to come here just to announce you're lack of participation.Please don't call yourself anyone's dad while you're acting like a melodramatic teenager with an inflated sense of self importance. You should be embarrassed to be acting this way at all, let alone past thirty.
>>42855673Now let's get this shit back on track.youtube.com/embed/hYrIxduXx-k
>>42872839Hes right tho.
>>42870228yeah its really irritating, with their ads it feels like the companies are personally insulting me by saying they think im dumb enough to be influenced by their stupid liesstill it shouldnt ruin your halloween spirit, just enjoy the sights and smells and forget about the cursed companies
>>42872857If your not participating, you can go suck each other off in one of the many other threads on the board instead of shitting up the one thread dedicated to the thing you don't care for. Or did you think you were going to change the commercial nature of an entire holiday by whining like a little bitch in some obscure corner of the internet? Go have you're autistic fits wrecking the displays at a spirit Halloween if you're so miffed about commercialism, you cringeworthy larping pieces of inhuman shit.
>>42872839to be fair anon, you got mega buttblasted by someone making a statement about how they feel about something.
>>42868254I remember these buses, my story is similar. this would have been in the early 90's. Collecting the Goosebumps, Scary Stories books. And assorted PG horror related books.
>>42872903Na he's right. Youre the one acting like a little baby penis right now. I love and celebrate halloween, and ignore the companies pushing to commericalize it.You're just a cry baby bitch cus someone has an opinion other than yours.
>>42870250why are you assuming its a he? god youre corny.
>>42873885He is the traditional gender neutral pronoun in the English language.
>>42872916Damn right I did. I'm tired of these melodramatic clowns. Their crushing lassitude! It's just impotent rage hiding behind naïve nostalgia and faux-romanticism, and always with a million excuses as to why they can't lift a finger to change a thing. They'd love for this place to become an echo chamber of sad sacks crying in each other's arms, like a cascading tabletop fountain of learned helplessness.If they've got a problem with the commercialism they can vote with their wallets. Make their voices heard on an actual platform. Start a fuckin' blog. Or y'know, actually get involved in their communities? Might even be able to change something. But no. They have to turn to these threads to announce their resignation like a slighted groupie pretending anyone gives the slightest shit who they are. Fuck'em.

I hope that crafting anon comes back this year, loved checking the thread to see what he'd made

>>42876110he is with us
What are you dressing up as for Halloween?
>>42878537plague doctor, same as my kid
>>42878537It's a toss up. I've been thinking about "The Judge" from Blood Meridian. I had a lot of fun as Uncle Fester, but if I shave my head again I want to do something nuts. I know it's gotten a reputation for being an entry level/pseud book, but I'd enjoy going as a character that's so evil people might get pissy at me for even doing it. I get the sense that for the people that The Judge is almost as offensive as all the Hitler/Saddam costumes people wore twenty years ago.I've also had The Phantom of the Opera in the "Masque of the Red Death" costume on the backburner for a couple years. I want to get a big pendulum clock I can carry around with a speaker for some creepy church bell sound effects, and some specialized perfume that smells like a corpse. I've thought about adding scents to costumes in general. The costuming for that is so extravagant that I want it to be exactly right if I execute on it, so it's gonna stay in dev for now. The Invisible Man is another idea that I've been considering, but Herbert West would probably be the easiest since I basically look and dress like his chudjack ass already.>>42878575Plague Doctors are a certified classic since at least the pandemic, even better if you shell out the dough for a nice custom made leather costume/mask.
>>42878644>specialized perfume that smells like a corpse. Do you remember what it was called?
>>42878678I haven't tested all of these but Spikenard is a good "rotten" smell, Tom Ford Lost Cherry apparently smell like embalming chemicals according to some morticians, Sécrétions Magnifiques apparently smells like florals mixed with cum and blood, Strangers Sombre smells like vomit and mud, "Demeter" sells some mushroom/dirt/petrichor scents in a similar vein. "Rotting Flesh" from Armomaprime or a similar company could also work. Cadaver dog training kits have vials of stuff that would be the closest to the real thing, but they can be somewhat difficult to source for obvious reasons. The world of specialized fragrances is finnicky to say the least, so good luck.
>>42875975thanks for the kind words anon! I will be in these halloween threads until my dying days. here's a jack o lantern puppet a few months ago
>>42878828and a moon pail I made last year
>>42878828>>42878832Really cool. How do these they hold up over time? Care to give us a tutorial or grocery list so we can give it a shot? Always love to see people actually making things in these threads.
Anyone bought something new for Halloween? I'm already 20 bucks in for a dancing animatronic from Michael's and 8 bucks on a little pumpkin with a plastic succulent plant.
>>42855632What're you guys going as? I'm going as an inspector from Helldivers 2.
>>42878828Neat.
>>42867758The light in my ADU keep on being turned on. I leave for work with them off and when I get home theyre on. Happened today again. This is like the 5th time. Also this statute was spun facing right when it should be facing straight like this
>>42878972Nother story. Everyone who stays in my studio for a prolonged period of time will eventually get a ringing in specifically their left ear. My ex said she kept on feeling like something was watching her from my bathroom door. The main house that my studio shares the same property my mom lives in says shit goes missing and gets rearranged all the time
>>42878985The first time ny 3 year old niece came into my studio she ducked behind the couch and stared at the bathroom. I asked if someone was there and she nodded. We walked in and there was nothing
>>42878993I collect bugs and I found a dying white moth so I left it in a box for it to die. For context i only get dead or dying insects.Later on that night I opened the box to inspect the dying moth when it flew out. I tried catching it to release it but it settled outside of my grasp. I went to sleep and I forgot my dream but in it there was a loud banging. I felt my big toe being tickled and when I woke up the moth was tickling my big toe. Fully awake I heard the banging and it was my mom banging my door. First thing she tells me is "I need to go to the emergency room."People have told me I remind them of the devil in ways. Just today my coworker said im the devil. Its not in a serious way, good looks mask a lot but more than one person has mentioned it to me. Others have mentioned im a witch in a sense, or am bewitched
>>42879004I went to the graveyard two weekends ago to film some footage at 1 am and felt something tug my sweater back. Whenever I enter a grave yard I make sure to ask permission from its guardian and leaving I use a different entrance than whence I entered. I always throw 3 coins of the same denomination (usually quarters) over my left shoulder to pay the dead. When I get home I always rub my wrists, neck and make an "×" on my forehead with "green fire." Its rue diffused into vodka to clean off any leftover energy or lingering hungry spirit. Dont pick up money in a grave yard, or anything for that matter. Its where we do work that rests outside the normal scope of magic
>>42878837
>>42879050>>42876118Bleh>>42877560hehe>>42878828Hell yeah, good to see you again.>>42879082That's most definitely what's up
>>42878842I already bought a few things from a local thrift, careful posting about your consumer habits 'round here though, kek.
>>42879144I'm pretty happy with this lamp purchase as well. I think I might opt for a blue/green flicker bulb to complete the mad scientist look.
>>42879144>>42879158
>>42879144>>42879158>>42879180Walter Wick is the GOAT.
>>42879144>>42879158>>42879180>>42879185If you're the type to usually buy books new, try going to you're local library to see if they've got a used bookstore. Nothing beats the smell of an old paperback.
>>42878972Clean your dusty ass corner and maybe the spiders living on the ceiling won't spin your statue around. That statue's just 178 spiders in a trenchcoat at this point.>>42879004>I collect bugs>my mom banging my door>people have told me I remind them of the devilPlease stop being cringe, bro. I'm trying so hard to not bully you right now.
>>42879004>>42879261For the record I think insect specimen collecting is a fine hobby, especially if you're actually educating yourself on biology/taxonomy, just make sure you've actually got some kind of social hobby to balance things out. Even H.P. Lovecraft had friends and went places sometimes.
>>42879329youtube.com/embed/Wybawp-vEL4
>>42878985>same property my mom lives in says shit goes missing and gets rearranged all the timeI wish I could remember a story I heard at a family gathering in 1987. My aunt was friends with a couple that just had a baby. Apparently the baby attracted a friendly something. Only thing I can remember is if they lost/misplaced a pacifier or other thing for the baby it would appear on the dresser next to the crib the next morning.
Halloween watch list done.

>>42870579>Stará Plynárna (the Old Gasworks) in Hřensko, Czech Republic, is a fairytale-like 1905 stone building tucked into a rocky ravine that now operates as a boutique guesthouse and restaurant. Built in 1905 from natural sandstone and masonry by German workers to produce acetylene gas for lighting nearby village homes. Tastefully restored in 2004–2005 into a small guesthouse with four unique rooms (including space inside the old gas tower) and an on-site restaurant.

>>42880256He purposely tried to push the buttons of easily outraged bumpkin retards, and even in death he succeeds. I get being wary of hollyweird types, but I hardly think anyone making tranny jokes back then had any idea how annoying those people would become years later, I wouldn't even be surprised if he got canceled post mortem for portraying a tranny as a sexual predator. You've got to understand that if your hatred is entirely superficial that just makes you a giant pussy.>>42880561>also an AI trannyWhy am I not surprised?

I am reverent and gladdy, though wearing a countenance of due solemnity and measured regret, to caste mine eye backward upon thee Hallowe'ens of those dear and long vanish'ed ages, that shadow'ed twilit 'fore thee plagues of commerce and coin ever had their wick'ed ways with thee land. And to find within their bosoms that boun'ce with such a jollity, a fonded'ness which doth but swell and quicken thee more, as it become's ever thee clear'er unto mine eyes, that in thee far distant and long forgot'ten epochs, when as yet a telegraph had'nt bound those far corners of thee flatten'ed earth in a mesh of humming and buzzing, nor thee great locomotives thunder'ed across thee olde prairieland, nor indeed had any man as yet even conceived of thee moderne convenience which became "the purchasing of things". This holy-day, wherein thee young lads of thee village were wont to go about from do'er to do'er, knocking upon thee woods of thee do'ers with utmost politeness, and beseeching with a pious and somber humility their kindly neighbours for their all-hallows treats, wherewith to stuff their cheeks. Not a single trick play'ed, not a coin exchang'ed, nor a greedy bite taken from thee well ripen'ed fruit of thee 'morn, but instead time pay'ed in thee olde chapel and thee fields of browne cow. This gladsome autumnal festival of thee gay and of thee macabre, of thee grinning gourds and thee jingling of bells had, at one time, absolutely nothing whatsoever, in any wise, shape, or particular form, to do with that utterly base and grasping spectre to which thee modernes do call "consoomerism".

>>42863085Idk man every nigga I know loves scary movies n shieeet
>>42879261>>42879289Just repeating verbatim what people tell me about the way they perceive me. Yes I have friends and we chill. Yes the property is mine (fully paid.) Yes theres two separate dwellings. Yes my mom lives with me in the second dwelling since she has no where to go. I could have rented it to make money but money isnt important. You got me on the spider webs though
>>42881823I'll be honest, this is basically what I pictured.youtube.com/embed/GsbIdSGwoEs
>>42882367Kind of nigga who says "sometimes I scare myself" without any sense of sarcasm or irony

>>42874358Anyone ever notice how similar these two scenes are?youtube.com/embed/ClZbHLD5Eb4youtube.com/embed/ZVuToMilP0AI know the animator on the intro for Night of the Demons worked for Disney in some capacity later, but nothing in particular with Nightmare Before Christmas afaik, yet there are some very similar shots, blocking, and imagery between the two. It seems like a direct inspiration, but not one I've ever heard mentioned anywhere. The moon being a monster, the hilly graveyard with spiked fencing, the night on bald mountain-esque demonic spirits, the stylized orange text on a black background, the spiral pattern in the sky like the spiraling hill from "Nightmare", and of course the flaming pumpkin at the end being put in the beginning instead. Idk, just thought that was interesting.
>>42872619Lighten up, Francis.
Some Nice pictures ITT. I just picked up a film camera so I'm hoping to be able to get some good /x/-worthy photos to you guys. I'm excited! Happy Halloween season!

>>42863778>on HalloweenPlay vinyls, allow myself to eat some candy, and hand out candy to kids so my parents don't have to.>around fallI honestly used to (re)post my own paranormal greentexts but they're so mundane, I stopped. My workplace is haunted though, so spooks could happen any time of year for me.Too many niggers in my area to explore graveyards and have some real /out/ fun, but I do some walks and hikes in the woods to appreciate the foliage and weather. I also forage a bit of the local plants and plant accessories I have access to, but I'm trying to make a personal year-round calendar of what I can grab/when, so it's becoming less fall-centric. New this year, I've collected two potential wands. I'd like to finish them before Halloween and hopefully I can take one/both on a hike and enjoy a solitary smoke offering. I want to cure them with tung oil but my family will smell it and then they'll know I'm a cringy loser, so they'll stay raw until I move out I guess. The first I've had for months and it still needs way more work. The second was gifted to me from a tree the day after I asked it for a branch, which is pretty neat. Felt like electricity in my hand from the get-go; I think we'll pair nicely.
>>42879339nice
good thread, let's keep it going, I forgive you guys for not keeping my thread from a month ago going
>>42887621They move slow as fuck, but they're still some of the best threads on /x/.
Can you believe it, guys? Halloween. Just a week away! Halloween is in a week! Woo hoo! I am so happy about this information.

>>42876197Anybody seen "The Monster Club"? That and a ton of other old horror films just sitting up on YouTube. If you're a horror fan you should have a look around, you'd be surprised how much is just sitting up there for free.youtube.com/embed/UMAJzRK9BTs
Probably gonna bring people out of the woodwork to complain about ecelebs, but I'm sharing anyway.youtube.com/embed/DQJ3F4ZOkzk
