Spookiest Night of the Year!



EXERPT FROM THE JOURNAL OF DR. OPTILUIZ COOLENSTEIN...

Greetings, Dear Reader,

     Dr. Optiluiz here to wish you the happiest of Halloweens, everyone's favourite holiday! What, you prefer Christmas? HEATHEN! Oh, I'm just kidding, of course. I promised that the blog would be back soon, and here we are with an extra spooky post just in time for your spooky shenanigans, we hope you like it!
     Regarding the comic, I think most people overlook the fact that Pac-Man was the first-ever survival-horror game. What, you don't believe me? It's basically Slender with ghosts and drugs instead of pages. There's a video somewhere on youtube that explains this better than myself, but I'm too lazy to look for it.
     I've never mentioned it before on the blog, but I believe there's a curse that shows up on every October 31st and affects yours truly. The curse has been going on for about six years, and involves me making awesome plans for All Hallow's Eve. Plans that eventually self-combust and leave me with nothing to do on my favourite day of the year. That's why I like to consider the entirety of October as Halloween-Month, making sure that the curse doesn't suck out all the fun.
     As a part of my Spooky October, I've been watching some Halloween classics that I heartily recommend. Today, in fact, I saw the original Fright Night for the first time and the theme song has yet to leave my mind. I fear that it shall never be far from my thoughts. On the other hand, I live-tweeted Jason Goes to Hell: the Final Friday last night, which was a sack of shit that burned away a few years from my life. I hope your Halloween marathons are more successful, dear readers.
     Also, as you probably can already tell, I've been reading Bram Stoker's Dracula, which is honestly much better than all the adaptations. I'm also preparing a post defending found-footage films by comparison to epistolary novels, but that will have to wait.
     I believe that this is all for now, but we'll surely meet again soon. Be it during the full moon or the dark hours of the morning, our paths shall cross again. Do you hear that? The children of the night... What beautiful music they make!

As always, thank you for reading, and enjoy your Halloween!
