[Borges]

A considerable documentary about the great horror writer available for free on YT. An impressive guest list too, Guillermo Del Toro, John Carpenter, Neil Gaiman and others.

The thing on the doorstep.

There is time to find out and see.

[Slings and Arrows]

That which is not dead may eternal lie,
And in strange aeons even death may die.

Thanks for posting. I’m a big Lovecraft fan - have been since I first read his works as a teenager.

[Constitution Day]

Bump for later

Love Lovecraft. His short story “Cool Air” is one of my favorites.

Is it just me?

Or does it not seem somehow wrong doing this thread in the daylight?

This should be our 3-4AM topic, methinks.

(Excuse me. It’s time to feed “The Twin.”)

[Borges]

Your screen name sounds like a Lovecraftian Old One.

[Darksheare]

Night, during a storm, with heavy fog.

And the third cup of coffee, nerves on edge.....

twitching.....

“twitching” ~~~ “witching” ~~~ “watching”

[Darksheare]

The third coffee urn tipped into the chasm,
The ground convulsed in return, a paroxymal spasm.

[shibumi]

Coffee urn tipped
Ground chasm convulsed return
Paroxysmal spasm

There. Now it’s Haiku.

[Darksheare]

The haiku of doom
My mind upon which it chewed
Coffee of concern

[shibumi]

That’s why I brew “Turkish.”

Sometimes I like to chew the grounds.

[combat_boots]

Oh dear! A haiku,
persistent thought provoking
words. Inspiration.

Back in 1962 I had a school mate cuss me out when I challenged her to read THE RATS IN THE WALLS. She said she could not sleep for a week!

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I believe Jules Verne also did this in some of his novels.

[Darksheare]

I read that tale.
Later on, I heard something scritching inside the wall.
