The Halloween Fashion Show was a cool little community project where a lot of DD creators participated. They submitted their characters as models and then dressed them up to do a Halloween fashion show. I love looking at the creativity on show here and the enthusiasm of the creators to ...

damehelsing at 12:00AM, Oct. 31, 2021
So, ladies and gents, friends and furries, yes, 13 Ghosts is the movie that haunted me as a child and to a point, still haunts me. I’ll never look at bathtubs the same.

So I want to talk about the Dread Persephone!
