THE YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER In 1816 the first #vampire story in English emerged out of perpetual rain & darkness. The story writing contest in the gloom at the Villa Diodati also gave birth to that other archetype of Gothic heritage, Frankenstein’s monster #MythologyMonday

Moonlit Landscape with a Gothic Ruin by Sebastian Pether (1790-1844). Sebastian, as well as his father and brother, specialized in painting moonlight (especially full moon nocturnes), and together they were known as the “Moonlight Pethers”.

On the 23rd day of the month of September
In an early year of a decade not too long before our own
The human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very existence... #littleshopofhorrors #frankoz

AUTUMN the brush that sweeps away the cobwebs of your heart. So beautiful today in its quiet gloom!

The Autumnal Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere occurs on the 22nd September at 7.19pm. It is the official start of Autumn. In ancient times it was celebrated as a time of balance when day and night are equal. #FolkloreSunday

Can we also make it happen on a global scale? 🫶

We as a society need to build more witchy houses

YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER
Summer 1816 was cold & dark; it was then that the first #vampire story in English emerged out of the same story writing contest at the Villa Diodati that gave birth to that other archetype of Gothic heritage, Frankenstein’s monster #WyrdWednesday

Who's looking forward to Autumn? 🙋🏼

when Virginia Woolf said, “Autumn is my season, dear; it is, after all, the season of the soul” and when F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall” and when Anne Shirley said, “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”
