My living room set is finished 🖤🦇🦋
Ethics : these bats came from a government sanctioned cull , because they eat around 10% of the fruit from farmers . While im anti cull , im pro the population being able to make profit from a government sanctioned cull 🦇🖤

We had a fantastic time at Horror Con Scotland - Aberdeen on Saturday. Thank you so much everyone who came along and braved the weather . I had a real CENOBITE ( Nicolas Vince ) come past in between signing and photos , and it was a pleasure meeting The Grimm Life Collective too .
The wheeler deservedly won the cosplay , she was really fantastic .
The Elvis dead was a huge highlight for me , I really massively enjoyed him . Laughed till I cried . If you ever get the chance to catch him ( Rob Kemp) , make the effort , he’s hilarious.
Thanks go to Laura at Northern Frights for putting on this day and for doing a fantastic job at the last min to try and make the day a success in the middle of a storm sweeping the country . She did fantastic 🖤
Hoping I’ll see you all at the next one ! 🖤
Stay spooky and remember , sometimes dead is better 🖤💀🕷️🪲🦋🦇
Next and only other event this year is this coming Friday at the Nocturne Market III - HALLOWEEN
