These stories were so great! The last one was a little hard to get through...but the rest were really entertaining!

pickI‘ve read these before, but I was a while ago, so it felt like I was reading them for the first time. Classic Clive Barker: twisted stories, gore, sometimes the bad guy wins, usually thought-provoking. Loved the stories! Well, most of them. A few were meh, but isn‘t that the way of short-story collections?
@Tove_Reads tagged me for #BookmarkMe thanks for that! ?
Here's the ones I've been using for years, the little ones are magnetic - they're pretty cool. The flowers one is probably my most used one, as it's always near and the others I've got to dig out every time. ?
Reading is going well today and I've another review coming very soon of "The Colour Out of Space" by H.P. Lovecraft! ??
I tag everyone! ?♂️
#ChillingPhotoChallenge #Candy #TeamSlaughter for today‘s prompt I am choosing this cheesy movie based on Clive Barker story- this installment set in New Orleans- beware the Candyman! #Scarathon @Clwojick
It is with distinct fear and #horror that I recall when this movie came out in 92 (based on the tagged book of stories). Every kid I knew was talking about it and I was super scared to even discuss it, let alone watch it. Still have never seen it (or read it), but it manages to still creep me out just thinking about it.

pickI've read this one a long time ago in a books of blood edition, but now there is this beautiful Brazilian edition... It's the prettiest book in my bookshelf right now!
Love my copies of the books of blood by Clive Barker! I can't wait to read these! I've only heard great things and Barker is strange and I'm pumped to read what he has come up with for these!!!

Look what I got for my birthday! The complete set of The Books of Blood by Clive Barker. The first book is signed and the whole set was published by Subterranean Press. We saw it months ago at the soon-to-be-closed (if it hasn‘t already) bookstore I love in Berkeley, CA called Dark Carnival which I‘ve posted about before. My guy bought it, stashed it, and I was able to totally freak out!! Such a wonderful addition to my Clive Barker collection.

Bear with me - The Forbidden short story is the basis of the film Candyman.....
All I've got for this!!
Who are some of your favourite authors?
Clive Barker is definitely one of my heros. I discovered his horror first, like many, but his fantasy is out of this world. Such a rare and unique wealth of imagination. He shows me things I've never seen before, which is always amazing. (I also love cracked spines on well read paperbacks) sign of a well loved book 📚

Happy birthday, Clive Barker! His stories are a great read for this haunting month, if you can stomach them - so descriptive.
