Kuchisake-onna/ The Japanese Slit-Mouthed Woman

I’d been really interested in this particular Japanese Urban Legend for ages, and when I watched John Wolfe play a game inspired by it I decided to properly dig in deep and do a post on it. Keep reading to find out about the Japanese Slit-Mouthed Woman (and how to escape her)…

Edward Mordrake/ Two Headed Man: Investigation

So I was on Facebook a couple weeks ago and I saw this little image about a guy that was born with an extra “evil” face on the back of his head, and I was instantly compelled to investigate and try and debunk it/ learn more about it if it was true. Is Edward Mordrake […]

Real Life Silent Hill: Investigation

I’m a massive fan of the Silent Hill movies and games (I’m literally listening to the Silent Hill soundtrack as I write this to get me in the mood), and when I found out that there’s a real-life town that inspired a lot of its eerie elements, it sent my research brain into overdrive. I […]

My Top Youtube Channels for Spooky Content

Origin, History and Psychology of the Ouija Board

Have you ever wondered where the ouija board came from, and how it came to be sold as a toy? My interest in the subject led me to a google deep dive and after 8 pages of research I was ready to tell everyone what I found out. This post is quite long but it’s […]

From the Crypt: Ghost Stories | ep1

I could’ve started off my brand new blog with an introduction post, but I’ve been there done that with my beauty blog. So instead, I thought I’d get a quick explanation out the way here, before kicking things off with a bang. I started this blog because of my love for all things dark, scary […]
