      <image:title>Blog - Scotland, Land of Ghosts</image:title>
      <image:caption>One in particular was The Witchery, a restaurant on the Royal Mile. Our tour guide told us that this charming location used to be the site of many, many, many witch executions. (Or so-called witches. We all know it wasn’t about witchcraft 99% of the time). I walked past that place and sped up. I can’t even really describe what I felt except: bad, bad, bad. There was a sense of a writhing darkness, and had I lingered I might be better able to describe it, but I had alarm bells going off in my head and I chose to listen to them. I passed it again another day on the same side of the street this time. Out of morbid curiosity I slowed down and looked inside. I was greeted with a beautiful stone corridor filled with lush green plants and a sunlit courtyard beyond it. And the uncanny sense that something was beckoning. Trying to lure me in. I moved right along. Mad respect to the people who spit on the history of unjustly murdering women accused of witchcraft by opening a restaurant called The Witchery, but I must ask, how haunted is that place oh my god?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - I am the scary thing.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Then, horror was everything to me. I began consuming as much of it as I could. No longer was I terrified. If something got a scream out of me, I was delighted by it. The Evil Dead trilogy? Phenomenal. John Carpenter’s The Thing? I’ve never loved anything more. Friday the 13th? A revelation. I wasn’t an Alice. I was a Pamela. I was not the Final Girl. I was the Monster. This discovery started bleeding over into my other hobbies. I was already a cosplayer and already a writer. I primarily wrote fantasy or action with supernatural elements at this point, but I was exploring other genres. I even tried writing a romance once. A mistake, if ever there were one. But hey, it doesn’t hurt to try. So I tried horror. Writing horror proved to be invigorating. This. This is where I was always meant to be. This is what I was always meant to be writing.</image:caption>
