I enjoyed the @TerrorTalesof conference too much to do any live tweeting, but one of the signs of a brilliant conference is a successful book haul 📚

[🎃🦇 TalesofTerror 🧛‍♀️👻 @TerrorTalesof]

It became very clear to us at #FiresideTalesofTerror that the Valancourt volumes of Victorian Christmas ghost stories (edited by one of our speakers Christopher Philippo!) were indispensable to many of our scholars.

And a lovelyChristmas gift!

@Cat_Liberace @DeathandDolls @Jendeavour Sorry we didn't get to chat more! The perils of being an organiser! But thank you so much for coming and sharing your work and so glad you had a great time :)

[Monica Germana @monicagermana]

What a wonderful Goth Christmas this had been! Listening to - what’s the collective noun for Gothicists? - talk on mummies, ghosts, vengeful trees, spooky eels, ice queen fashion, yule cats and much more! Thank you @DeathandDolls and @Jendeavour for making this happen! ❄️💀👻🥶

Truly proud to have been a part of this panel! Fantastic papers from @pietersender and @DrGothicBodies, and some really interesting questions from the in-person audience as well. Simpsons, Robin Hood, John Carpenter, Fromsoft - what more can you ask for?
