arawn: what is the most terrifying thing that you have ever done?

I am one of those people that tries to avoid all danger like the plague at all costs... So I have never done anything that dangerous. This is terrible to admit, but the most dangerous thing (in my opinion) that I have ever done is riding in the car with a drunk driver. I am not proud of that and I do not condone drunk driving, whatsoever.

Anime of the Month

Since it is almost Halloween After all...

I figured that this month's Anime of the Month should after all be something delightfully scary. So here it is...

Ghost Hunt

(Not mine)

     Ghost Hunt is a pretty cute anime about a young school girl that meets a group of paranormal investigators that help their local town help put their concerns about the paranormal going on-s to rest, or so to speak.

     This anime spooked me a couple of times pretty good! I was surprised. Ghost Hunt has many cutesy elements in it, but it was refreshing to actually be shocked and caused to jolt in my seat during the show. All in all, it's pretty well written and there is your typical anime humor. There is next to no fan service in this, so no pervy stuff.

     Another interesting aspect of this show's plot is that the paranormal team doesn't always find a ghost. Infact, sometimes it just turns out to be a decomposing building, or something as simple as a person, usually a child, just projecting their stress and allowing it to manifest.

     But sometimes... The episodes are so spooky I have to go find Josh and hold his hand.

Spookie Lookie

Okay so this look isn't exactly spooky buuut...

     Hey, it's a theme alright! So I decided that this week while it may not be spooky per say, a lot of people do this look for a Halloween costume... So here it is...

Mermaids!

     I decided on mermaids because they are a great fictional critter and more often than not when in movies they are portrayed as scary creatures rather than the visions of beauty we hold so dear.

     I picked this skirt because I have been dying to wear it and I haven't yet had a chance to wear it out... So I put it together in this look. I thought it was so shiny and shimmery and that could represent the glittering scales of a mermaids tale. I also think that the color scheme is reminiscent of a sunset on the beach.

     The top is entirely do it yourself... It used to be a strained t-shirt, but with a little creativity and some love viola! Instant beach wear.

     I love those sparkly flats... I wear them with everything.

     The accessories are pretty simple. The fish hair clip is actually a brooch that my Mama gave me ages ago and the shell necklace was also a gift from her!

American Horror Story

Today I'm going to be talking about one of my favorite TV programs...

American Horror Story!

     American Horror Story is a television series that exceeds the boundaries of what most people would consider "appropriate television". The series started back in 2011 with the first season, American Horror Story: Murder house. I remember how amped up I was to watch it... I love horror movies so you can imagine how excited I was that a TV show would be airing that was intentionally macabre and meant to terrify.

     Immediately I was blown away. I thought the directing was fantastic... The characters were very easy to relate to and every minute had me sitting on the edge of my seat.

And I thought the first season was scary...

     Season two, American Horror Story: Asylum (2012) literally blew Murder House out of the water. Again, the characters rocked, the directing was great and I was utterly horrified by the audacity of the show. But in all of the best ways. The show also started developing an interesting strategy of introducing an entirely different plot, setting and time period, as well as bringing back cast members from the previous seasons to play new parts!

     With the newest season coming out, American Horror Story: Coven, the plot has changed yet again, the time period has changed and there will be recurring cast members from previous seasons such as the languid Jessica Lange (Big Fish; Sweet Dreams; The Postman Always rings Twice), Evan Peters and Lily Rabe. There are also going to be some rather big fish (no pun intended) actors such as Kathy Bates and Emma Roberts!

     The newest season just aired last week and I wont be saying much about the plot to avoid being a spoiler but you can rest assured that the show will not disappoint. 

Get ready to get the hell scared out of you...

MWAHAHAHA!
