Haunted House Dressing



Writer Jeremy C. Shipp is one spookie dude. His official website, Haunted House Dressing is a weird keyword delight. "Old stinky sock," "garden gnomes," "polka dot penguins," "mercury poisoning" and that is just in the opening paragraph. Explore a little further and you will find "ill-humored space hippo," "Parsnip the artist," "delightfully insane," "Aqua Teen Hunger Force," "poo humor," and "ketchup-suicide."

Compelling? Well, Ketchup-Suicide is a Danish artist who works in a variety of mediums and his Wish Upon a Star is featured in this blog. Creepy work, definately creepy.

But expectations met when it is running next to copy that suggests, "Snowflakes burst. Against the delicate wings. Of Frenetic faeries. As they swiftly orbit. The one-eyed skull. Of a forgotten snowman." I am so enjoying this little walk in the park at night.

Jeremy also makes photo-comic from finger puppets, and has lovely observations about life that we can all learn from, i.e., "Smurfs don't taste like blueberries. At all. Trust me." and "When you make a garlic smoothie. Don't add vinegar. It just makes things worse."

A must visit site, just click on the little box to the right. Enjoy the "Top reasons why zombies make horrible dinner guests." My favorite is predictable, they are xenophobic when it comes to Eskimos.
