Teaching Specimen


So... my bestie wanted to learn how to corpse.  Off to the Halloween store for materials, and a few hours later, I think she's got the hang of it.  :-)

Time to kill? Need something different for entertainment?

The Monster Channel

As it says: The world's first interactive horror channel!  On all day, on all night.  All good fun!

Still, they're lovely to look at.

While we're talking podcasts...

I'm also a fan of NPR's Hearing Voices.  They've done multiple episodes on the weird, and here's an October special from a few years ago.  Follow the link to hear Episode 74 - Bloody Hell: For Halloween.

Confessions of a Podcast Junkie

Having recently given up "mainstream media" (read: I no longer pay any mind to the news), I find I've developed a taste for podcasts.  I've come a cross some real gems as well as some real duds.
One of my favorites, though is Backstory with the American History Guys.  I've enjoyed many of their offerings, but last October they produced a real treat: American Spirit: A History of the Supernatural.  If you have an hour to kill, and would like to learn some interesting things about America's love affair with the kooky and spooky, click the link above and listen to the show directly from their website.  (It's also available free on iTunes.)
