Hey guys! Its been a while here but no worries! Im here now and with a big ol spooky update for you all! Honestly i've missed blogging, i forgot how theraputic it is. Anyways, being as this is the month of October i've been drawing lots of spooky pictures, playing lots of spooky games and just been feeling pretty funky overall. Good times!!
So the first thing! - Drawlloween
At the start of the month i always get super inspired! I just wanna draw all my oc's in trashy Halloween outfits, and everyone posts their amazing Halloween oc's and Drawlloween just explodes. Wow so much inspiration! You can feel the excitement from everyone! Seriously, so good! I myself have never actually finished a Drawlloween, as ever i aim to try and keep thinking positive but inevitably i usually have to stop before i get some serious burnout. Being someone that draws for a living, and then doing a drawing event too. Well thats a lot of drawing, and sometimes i just need some time away from my pc just to give those creative juices a rest. STILL even tho i didn't finish it (and was sick for one day so i couldnt draw then fuuu) i'm still super happy with how far i got! Here are some link's to all the posts if you want to check them out!

Next up we got some - ANIME
Ok ok, i'm kinda kicking myself that i've not watched anything very spooky yet this month. But i love me some magical girl anime so i couldnt resist. Glitter forced (also known as Smile! PreCure) popped up on my recommended netfilx, then i binge watched the whole thing. That also includes Glitter force Doki Doki. Its been a nice little anime to watch, nothing really special, very 'monster of the week'. Just super cute, super light hearted and super FUN! Yeah!!
Last but not least - GAMES
Ok so me and my husband LOVE videogames, and like your typical gamer we have one two many games that we've had for years and never actually finished. First off i started with folklore on the ps3, it was not a very scary game per say but its based around Halloween. A game i've had for years, never finished, i'd always get so far then just not want to finish it. I loved the story and mystery so much i didn't want to spoil what the big surprise was. And well the only way was to not finish it. But HA not this time! I did and honestly it got a bit trippy and weird towards the ending. Like not the greatest but still loved it, the characters, the monsters and the location! After that was done it was time to get serious! Time to play one of the kings of horror. (Also before any of you suggest P.T i have that demo and its nightmare fuel so god)
So me being the big scaredy cat that i am asked could my husband play through Silent hill whilst i watch. Seriously that game is so good, i remember playing it when i was little and i'd get up the the part where the bird thing smashes through the diner and i'd just stop. Totally should not have been playing that game at that age but whatever you live you learn! So! We went through silent hill 1 fairly quickly. Loved the story, characters and atmosphere.
Another game we had planned for October was Haunting Ground, not as spooky as silent hill but oh man just as fucked up. Seriously the game over screen when one of the guys are chasing you and all you can hear is him moaning (all the characters in the game want to fuck you.) Yeah its went there! It was great tho, so creepy again the characters were great, loved the location, the chasers really made it tense, especially when your just minding your own beeswax and then BOOF there they are.
Ok so after that October was still rolling, so the next spooky game we decided on playing was Silent Hill 3. What happened to two? Well we don't own it simple. Either way 3 was just as spooky, from the get go i was all like "ahh yeah nope i'd rather die than be there" but again i just loved the atmosphere it generates. All the weird fleshy walls, twichy corpse monsters and just how the level shifts from already being pretty creepy to just outright fucked up! So good! My only problem with SH3 was in the first game there was not much noise when the monsters were lurking around, which made it a lot more spooky (imo). However in 3 as soon as you enter the room, the monster starts wailing and yes the closer you gets depends on how loud it is, but thats beside the point. When I entered the room and heard the song of its people i could be like "Oh thats so-and-so monster, i can prepare for it like this", even when i didnt know what the monster was i was still. "Ok yeah i'm going to get attacked here". Its not a huge thing, i still got spooked out either way especially the last area, big nope there. And oh my god theres a room in the hospital? But basically theres a large mirror and you can see stuff growing everywhere in the mirror, then on you and ugh just no i hated that room.. (its the gif i've posted) Survived hardly but fuck that room.
Phew i think i've talked your socks off now so we all need a good break. This has been really fun to do! So i might do another next month, at least for what games i've been working through. ^^
Thanks for reading!
