Guest Post: Werewolves, Mood Swings, and The Hobgoblin of Little Minds
In the underground tunnels below Northville Psychiatric Hospital, the mood swings of the mentally ill are manipulated by a roque psychiatrist, transforming them into manic, savage beasts who seek justice by the light of the full moon.
Iβm incredibly excited to announce my new novel, The Hobgoblins of Little Minds, is now available for presale in both Kindle and paperback formats. Publication date is less than 90 days from now. Thunderstorm Books will also be issuing a limited-edition hardcover, coming soon.
Movie Review of βThe Ownersβ
βThe Ownersβ is a 2019 Psychological Horror-Thriller, adapted from a French-language Graphic Novel βUne Nuit de Pleine Lune.β While I have not read this myself, I was able to track down a few pages, and it does appear, at a cursory glance, to have at least been faithfully adapted from the source material.
Body Horror, Bugs, and Boss Witches: A Review of Cherry Tree
βCherry Treeβ is an incredibly moody and darkly atmospheric film, which makes sense given its many heavy thematic elements. It is chock full of symbolism representing feminism, femininity and womenβs issues, bond of family, bodily autonomy, sexual freedom, etc. Themes of loss are quite prevalent in this movie: loss of a parent, loss of life, loss of innocence, loss of childhood, etc etc. It is a very moody, atmospheric, and dark film centering around a 15-year-old virgin, Faith, who makes a pact with some dark witches in order to save her ailing fatherβs life.
Friends Are The Family You Chose For Yourself β Why We Need Horror Blogs
Sixteenth century English poet John Donne once declared: βNo man is an island entire of itselfβ, a powerful sentiment that another Jon (Bon Jovi, this time) would echo over four hundred years later accompanied by his electric guitar. The phrase itself suggests that humans do rather badly when they are isolated from others and both benefit and thrive by being part of a supportive community.
Maiden, Mother, Crone: Witchy Films and Fiction Which Wonβt Frighten the Pants Off You
The following are all (mostly) PG or PG13 movies, with a few exceptions, but they all tend to focus on the fun or flirty over frightening (with the exception of The Witches. That movie is fucking terrifyingβ¦)β¦

As a writer based in New Zealand, it would be remiss of me to not include these feel-good New Zealand-based contemporary witchy fiction books, with a dash of romance. There are seven titles out now, with many more to follow, and all are magical and joyous readsβ¦
