Awesome Candle Holders

So I was just wasting time on the web, when I came across these:

Zombie candle holders!

These cool things cast zombified shadows wherever you put them. I think that’s pretty neat!

Introducing: The Morrigan

Hello Minions, I hope all is well.

This has been a very busy week for your friendly neighborhood Scarydad. As you know, earlier this week we got our killer new logo delivered earlier than expected and it so far exceeded expectations I actually released the artist from the dungeon. I guess I could have left him down there but I might need him for future projects and I couldn’t trust that he would keep.

As if that weren’t enough, today we are proud to introduce a new member to our coven.

Everyone please welcome The Morrigan.

My Old Haunted Place

It all started back in 2001. I had been looking for a place in the center of town, closer to work and favorite hangouts. My sister had also recently moved to town and we were going to be roommates to try to save some cash. We were having trouble, however, because earlier in the year Tropical Storm Allison came through and flooded the city. Apartments were in short supply while people were having their houses repaired. But, I eventually found a realtor that dealt in independent leasing and she showed us the place.

It was perfect. It was the whole bottom floor of a HUGE duplex built back in the 20’s. The area of Houston I was looking in had been the ultra-rich suburbs when the house was built, and you could tell this had once been very nice digs. It was 1000 square feet with dark hardwood floors and trim, large bedrooms, a butler’s pantry, a dining room, a den, and very high ceilings. It also had a yard with a garage and a huge front patio. All for $825 a month!

We began moving in the next day…
