Remember All The Goodest Boys Too

There are 67 days left until Halloween and now is a good time to introduce you to Jenny-Jinya.

Jenny-Jinya is the original artist of the “Loving Reaper” comics. She creates sad comics to raise awareness and funds for animals in shelters and in the wild.

I can’t read these without crying, but I always keep up on her work and after I read them I go find my dog, smooch his happy face and thank the stars for every single minutes we are together. Then I do what I can for the cats and dogs and animals in the wild who weren’t as lucky as Hamish Macbeth.

Below Jenny-Jinya’s  Trick or Treat comic are links to her sites. DO check them out but have a box of Kleenex on hand.

Is Anyone There?

There are 68 days left until Halloween and that little voice in my head keeps saying “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? ” and then another little voice says ” I thought I was in here alone.”

And then the three of us laughed and laughed and laughed.

If you go down in the woods today, you better not go alone
It’s lovely down in the woods today, but safer to stay at home

Cannock Chase, West Midlands. Cannock Chase is also reportedly one of the most haunted areas in England. Over the years there have been reported sightings of werewolves, big foot, ghosts of black-eyed children and ghostly black dogs.

I watched

Sideworld: Haunted Forests of England (2022)

last weekend and I LOVED it- there are some great stories to learn and magnificent camera work to enjoy

and this WILL either help you feel the Halloween Spirit or maybe inspire you to spin a few tales of your own.

You can watch it for free on youtube or if you’re an Amazon Prime customer you can stream it for free on that site too.

The Whist Hound is said hunt in packs across Dartmoor and it’s rumored the huntsman who leads the pack is the Devil himself.

Phantom black dogs allegedly roam the moors ff south-west England.

Across Central, Western and Northern Europe, the Wild Hunt is a well-known folk myth of a ghostly leader and his group of hunters and hounds flying through the cold night sky, accompanied by the sounds of the howling wind.

““Herne the Hunter, Lord of the Wild Hunt” (ghost associated with Windsor Forest, England) George Cruikshank, c.1843.

Take That Stupid Summer!

I am going to ignore the fact that there is still a little over a week left of August

and those pesky 9 days,

like those few strands of flesh and muscle that stubbornly cling to the  bone of some unfortunate creature who is no longer a resident of this world

and instead I will focus on the bottom line

– Halloween is now 70 days away and there is no stopping it from happening.
