👻 Do you like receiving clothing in boxes? 💜 I’ve been trying to figure out if there’s a way to add shirt sizes to existing subscriber accounts. If anyone is familiar with Shopify and knows of an app to integrate this, let us know! We’d love to occasionally include a shirt in our monthly boxes. 💜 Hope you’re having a great week! 📸 @authorgabrielavrivera featuring the shirt from our Survival boxes from last year!

🧟 Dean Of The Dead 🧟 Whenever I go to a con , I always have to pay a visit to my good friend @deanofthedeadofficial to see what he’s got! Knowing that he released four new sauces with Klown artwork by the equally awesome @jasonmillerart it was a no brainer to purchase the set , for a steal at £20. The bottle designs aswell are just so colourful and beautiful , makes me not want to open them 😂 Can’t wait to start trying these , best selection of sauces on the market, hands down 🤟🏻 #deanofthedead #hotsauce #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrorconuk #horrorswag #horrorart #instahorror #horrorofinstagram #horroroftheday

❓How has your New Year been going? 💜 So far, mine has been quite good. I’ve been relaxing and taking it easy. Winter has been difficult for me in recent years. 💜 But this year has been a little easier than years past. I knew what to expect, and I had been worried for some time that things would get bad with my mental health. While everything has been feeling slower and more melancholy than usual, I think my overall experience has been far better than I expected. 💜 I’ve been reading lots and working some and trying to get in some movement. I’ve also been avoiding crowds because everyone has been sick and I don’t want to catch anything. 💜 Hope you’re doing well!

❓How has your holiday week been? 💜 Mine has been pretty good! I had a nice Christmas Eve & Day with family. We played games, exchanges some gifts, had great food and laughs, and made memories. Really, what else could you ask for 😊? 💜 It has been so foggy in Rhode Island all week, which makes for a wonderful eerie atmosphere for reading. I’m trying to finish my goodreads goal for the year, so between holiday fun, deep cleaning my house, and some behind the scenes work I’ve been doing, I have been reading up a storm! I’m not sure I’ll finish, but I want to try. 📸 Photo features the @twistedretreat exclusive edition of Linghun by Ai Jiang!

When two boys mysteriously vanish, she immediately notices the uncanny similarities; including symbols of an ancient Norse god. If her theory proves true, she knows another sacrifice is imminent; but just like last time, no one believes her. For years, the FBI wanted an interview from someone in her family. She has to decide if she should agree to the deposition now in order to utilize all their resources to solve this eerie crime.
