31 Days of Halloween: Day 6


My Halloween month continues! (And yes... I know this post is a day late, but I've had a busy week of non-Halloween things as well, so I'm just catching up!)

John Carpenter's Village of the Damned



We decided on a random film on the Horror channel tonight... and it was a good 'un! I haven't seen John Carpenter's 1995 version of Village of the Damned for ages. It's got Christopher Reeve! And Kirstie Allie! But it also poses the question... where are the kids getting those creepy little outfits from? Are their 'parents' dressing them like that? Or is there a specialist clothes shop in Midwich? (As a side note, I really want to reread The Midwich Cuckoos now. And The Chrysalids too come to think of it.)

Today's Story



Today's story was 'The Hand' by Guy de Maupassant. It's a relatively short one, and it's creepy rather than horrifying. Vendetta!

Today's Tea





Today's tea was Berry Lugosi's Dead from Tenacious Tea - definitely the most awesome packaging so far, and the fruitiest tea! As the packaging promised, it is very much a blood red infusion as well.
