The Best Horror Books of All Time - House of Leaves
When House of Leaves was first published in 2000, it didn’t just challenge the boundaries of horror—it shattered the conventions of literature itself. Written by Mark Z. Danielewski, the novel is a postmodern puzzle box wrapped in a psychological thriller and haunted house narrative. With its layered storytelling, unconventional formatting, and philosophical depth, House of Leaves is more than a book. It’s an experience.

Cartoons Are Real? The Shocking Truth I Found Hidden in My Childhood Shows
I always believed cartoons were just fantasy — exaggerated stories to keep kids laughing before bedtime. That changed the day I found a VHS tape in my grandfather's attic. It was unlabelled, dusty, and hidden behind boxes marked "Do Not Touch." Naturally, I touched.

SEASON 2: THE SKIN PSALM
CHAPTER 1: THE SECOND LANGUAGE April 2023 — Volgograd Medical Institute Archive Room Mira Sokolov had always found comfort in quiet places. While others might feel unsettled among yellowing files and stale air, she found peace in order, in the soft hush of paper, and in the forgotten past hidden between aging documents. The Volgograd Medical Institute’s archive room, buried beneath two levels of reinforced concrete, was the quietest place on campus. She had volunteered....perhaps too eagerly....to assist in digitizing the Soviet-era patient records. No one else wanted to be surrounded by remnants of a medical system steeped in secrecy and rumor.

The Library Only Opens for the Brokenhearted—And I Had the Key
Prologue: The Book That Wasn’t There Yesterday I first found it on a night I wasn’t supposed to be out. My face was still wet from crying, my hands shaking from what I’d just done—what he had just said. A breakup isn’t always an explosion. Sometimes it’s a slow collapsing of the world. And mine had caved in quietly at a park bench beneath a sky that didn’t care.

In the company of Monsters
"Mommy! Mommy! Help, it's chasing me!" In his Toy Story pajamas, my four-year-old son storms into our bedroom with wide-eyed hilarity. Leaping onto our bed, he burrows beneath the blankets, shaking and crying. "Good grief. He needs to learn to sleep in his own bed," my husband griped, tired of this constant nightly battle that began shortly after Jimmy's fourth birthday. "Jimmy, sweetie, what is chasing you?" I asked gently, trying to peel him off my leg. "There's monsters in my room, an one got out and is trying to eat me."

Seventh Floor
The seventh floor shows you things. Impossible things. At first I thought the old-timers were crazy. Almost everyone that had been with the company for over 20 years refused to go to the seventh floor. They said the building didn't like it. I always figured it was some shared private joke among them; the kind of inside joke the secrets of which are revealed to anyone who reaches a certain tenure, as long as they also possess a countenance that makes them appear as individuals trustworthy of this most guarded punchline. But when I finally got the promotion I'd spent years chasing, they all stopped talking to me.

A Vampyre Story (2008) Review
As far as point & click games go, this one is rather standard in terms of gameplay and mechanics. Easy enough to understand and move Mona around the castle she lives in. Though instead of gathering items and placing them in bottomless pockets, they’re placed in a bottomless coffin. An appropriate twist. In addition to what Mona carries, she also makes notes of items she wants to save for later, and the ‘ghosts’ of those items appear in the coffin as well. When the need arises, she can teleport to one of those objects and use them. An interesting concept I hadn’t seen before. For a game made in 2008, A Vampyre Story had quite a few things going for it story-wise. I can also appreciate the details of all the backgrounds in and outside of the castle. These include a chandelier hanging over a long table in the dining room, stained glass windows in the library, and a snow-covered bridge against a moonlit sky. I’m reminded of old 2D Disney movies where the backgrounds are stagnant but beautiful.
