Halloween is around the corner!

Horror is Small
I think horror is better and more effective when it's small.
A dark hallway with one person nervously tiptoeing through it…a creepy phone call or knock on the door in the middle of the night…the demented, sinister weirdness of someone's new step parent ...
Character Deep Dive: Polly from Bottomless Waitress
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 21, 2023
Today’s deep dive is with Polly, from Bottomless Waitress! Bottomless Waitress is the joint creation of Banes and Ozoneocean, with Banes writing the script and Ozoneocean doing the artwork.

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 30, 2023

No, no. I promise this is not a post that will go like this:

There've been plenty of ...
