Barrelhouse of Horrors

From October 2017

Originally published as one piece per day for the month of October. Everything Halloween, Samhain, Dia de los Muertos, any and all autumnal celebrations of the dark and mysterious. Ghouls, banshees, the time you played Bloody Mary in your grade school bathroom, and we guess like David S Pumpkins if he’s still a thing for you.
