āThe Haunting of Hill Houseā is perhaps the greatest haunted house story ever. The 1963 film is also gloriously spooky. Everything she wrote is a banger.

Iām still watching them even tho October is over wtf??? I just canāt get enough. Recent greats include:
Noroi: The Curse (2005)
- Found footageā¦ the climax is so good. Great for fans of ghost/demon stuff.
Pulse (2001)
- One of my favourite horror movies ever. Worms its way into your being. Some truly terrifying, iconic scenes and imagery, not to mention quite prescient in its message re: online connectivity and society. Really canāt sing its praises enough!
Ju-On: The Grudge (2002)
- A classic!!! Still hits. Quintessential haunted house domestic strife ghost story. Toshio š¢šāā¬
Audition (1999)
- Probably my least favourite of this batch. Not for the squeamish. Still worth a watch if only for its feminist social commentary.
GonJiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)
- OK this one is admittedly kinda hokey but itās based off a REAL location and the jump scares are amazing!! Some truly spine-tingling moments. Not recommended just before bed lol š¬ (Also found footage)

I tell people allll the time this is the best 1970s sweeping horror epic about evil in a small town. Think Salemās Lot but with a more verbose and literary style. Great entry point into modern gothic and classic gothic horror. Such a cozy vibe I find myself rereading it sometimes in winter!! Youāll enjoy it if you like Joyce Carol Oatesās work. The movie is awful and I wish they would rework this into a modern adaptationā¦ perhaps a television series since thereās so much material

It sucks for a long time and then it doesnāt suck quite so bad and you just keep doing it. I donāt know why I like it so much but I do.

Iāve been volunteering at a Victorian cemetery since 2016. We plant era-appropriate flowers and plants in the grave of people who have been dead for 100-200 years. Itās such a peaceful, meaningful way to remember the long dead and interact with nature. also Iām certain I have ghost friends who are coming through for me on the astral plane.
