31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Haunting of Dylan Charles

I recently talked about the fact that I now live in a haunted apartment. I don't know who or what it's haunted by, I just know that, on occasion, it gets all creepy up in here. There have  been new sounds added into the mix. We both heard the sound of something thumping on the … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Haunting of Dylan Charles

31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Remade

Between 2007 and 2010, all three of the major slasher icons were featured in reboots of the old movies. Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers stalked the silver screen again in "fresh" "re-imaginings" of the old movies. Halloween came first, followed shortly by Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street. The idea that … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Remade

31 Days of Spoooktacular: Spoooky Beer Review: Paulaner’s Oktoberfest Wiesn

I’m taking it upon myself to review as many Oktoberfests and Pumpkin Ales as I possibly can during the Halloween Season. All while listening to “Thriller”. Next up: Paulaner's Oktoberfest Wiesn I love free things. We all love free things. If you see something in the store and it comes with something FREE, it triggers … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: Spoooky Beer Review: Paulaner’s Oktoberfest Wiesn

31 Days of Spoooktacular: Spoooky Beer Review: Blue Moon’s Harvest Pumpkin Ale

 I’m taking it upon myself to review as many Oktoberfests and Pumpkin Ales as I possibly can during the Halloween Season. All while listening to “Thriller”. Next up: Blue Moon's Harvest Pumpkin Ale I know Blue Moon entirely through their Belgian ale, which I do not like. To be honest, I don't like any Belgian ales, on … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: Spoooky Beer Review: Blue Moon’s Harvest Pumpkin Ale

31 Days of Spoooktacular: A Repeat

I'm copping out tonight. Not for any real reason, except that maybe I don't want to put you through some half-assed attempt at something. Instead I'll just pull something out of the long ago for you to read. There are two reasons why this entry might seem familiar: A) You've been reading my blog for … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: A Repeat

31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Halfway Point

It is now the 16th of October and the halfway point, or a little over the halfway point. 31 doesn't really split equally very well. I'm torn with how this is turning out. It's really hard to write non-stop about one subject for 31 days and keep it interesting for both myself and the people … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: The Halfway Point

31 Days of Spoooktacular: Reflection

I'm still reeling a bit from the convention yesterday. I'm not a person that really likes big crowds of people and I don't like big crowds of exuberant people. So yesterday was a bit overwhelming. But, as I mentioned briefly in my last blog entry yesterday, there is something invigorating about being surrounded by a bunch of … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: Reflection

31 Days of Spoooktacular: Rock and Shock (The Event)

I keep trying to condense all of this into one picture or thought that encompasses the entire event, but it's just not possible. There are the celebrities. The few we actually talked to were absurdly nice and patient with our mumbling and limp handshakes. All around me, I see adulation for a genre that gets … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: Rock and Shock (The Event)

31 Days of Spoooktacular: Rock and Shock (The Trip)

We're taking the train to the convention and so far, there have been enough oddities too warrant a mini entry. The moment we boarded the train, an older woman stood up and shouted, "Oh God, is this Worcester?" The confused young man standing next to her assured her we had not reached the last stop … Continue reading 31 Days of Spoooktacular: Rock and Shock (The Trip)
