Classic Film Reading 2023: Fright Favorites: 31 Movies to Haunt Your Halloween and Beyond by David J. Skal
Tumblr media
I saw this book at my library and was really intrigued by the cover. I judged a book by its cover and am glad I did! I absolutely loved this book!
The way Skal talks about each movie is thoughtful and really does each film justice. Skal gives you a historical and sometimes technical insight into each film, which was absolutely fascinating to me. I love learning about the history surrounding films and why they could have been important during the time they were created and this book does just that. I also like how the book was done in chronological order, so you could read about how horror films have evolved as technology has evolved.
The pictures used for each film were visually stunning! They really jumped out right on the page. The cover is what got me to read this book but the pictures inside kept me coming back.
I also really liked how with each movie, Skal gave you another film to check out if you liked the previous film he was talking about. It was a nice little Easter Egg at the end of each chapter! You pretty much got two movies for the price of one!
The irony is that I am not a huge horror film fan. I can deal with being creeped out, but not terrified. Some of the films Skal mentioned I will never watch, but I still enjoyed reading about them. I would assume this book would be perfect for any horror film fan!

Prompt 313
You know what? Snake Danny. But not just any snake! Space naga. The world serpent, but literal- a moving galaxy, comets caught in the wakes of his movement, stars nestled between his scales. He’s like a giant cosmic LBM, wandering throughout time and space while he learns how to be an Ancient. 
He’s having fun! Learning so much and it’s a great way to chill for the weekends… er, or whenever he is seeing as sometimes Clockwork sends him off to not break a timeline or something. Who knows or cares, he was in space! 
Sometimes Tucker and Sam joined too, and honestly it’s all so much fun- especially now that they can make their own portals! C’mon he wants to check on this cool dimension he visited a while ago!

Hey as the professional FNAF person could you explain remnant and agony? I'm kind of confused about what it actually does since it seems to cause all kinds of weirdness in the books.
ABSOLUTELY
Alright, so basically in the world of FNAF, emotions aren't just contained in the body. If you feel an emotion particularly strongly, it can linger and infuse itself into nearby objects. Agony is the most powerful lingering emotion, and typically appears as a sort of black oozing substance.
Remnant is interesting. It's described like this in Fazbear Frights:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In FNAF AR, there are two kinds of Remnant. The normal kind, and dark Remnant, which summons Shadow Bonnie. I'm pretty sure dark Remnant is tainted by evil or Agony in some way, whereas the normal kind is just the general nonphysical-energy infused kind.
Remnant can be present without a spirit fully attached. It's a "Remnant" of something intangible, like a memory, emotion, or a spirit. We can see this with novel Charlie, as she doesn't have the original Charlie's soul, but rather is the product of Henry's emotions during her construction.
Additionally, Remnant can be used for healing, power, and giving/anchoring life. It can cure illness and injuries, increase the power of an entity, and keep someone from dying. I'm 99% sure Remnant is the reason why Scraptrap has a lot more human bits than Springtrap did; William would have regrown human bits as he wandered around finding ways to get Remnant to recover.
Remnant reacts differently at different temperature, and while it was theorized by William to be neutralized with high heat, that either doesn't actually work, or the destruction of Remnant doesn't lead to a soul being William to move on. A spirit can exist without or outside of a vessel, but interfacing with living people in that case is much harder. Remnant (afaik) is the anchoring force between a spirit and their vessel.

I have been watching exclusively toh episodes in the past few days because I need to cope

[ID: A digital drawing of Mattholomule from The Owl House. He is wearing his outfit from "Through the Looking Glass Ruins," his expression is smug and mischievous. Text at the bottom of the screen reads, "13 year old me convincing myself I was straight after manipulating every answer in an "'am i gay'" buzzfeed quiz to get 0%:". The background is a blurried image of the Looking Glass Graveyard, accompanied by a blurry Gus Porter. His face is obscured halfway by the screen border, but he looks confused at Mattholomule.

I feel like they would've been such nice friends if they met under different circumstances 🥹
Here is my interpretation of their designs, I had lots of fun painting this and it's definitely one of my favorite fanarts I have done so far! I hate drawing full bodies but this one got me out of my comfort zone. Enjoy!
Also, happy new year! 🎉

horror sub-genres • campy
campy horror is absurdly exaggerated, low-budgeted, artificial, or affected in a usually humorous way. camp is, in a way, a rebellion: a rebellion against the growing inaccessibility of art and film by the lower class.
