Some of my Halloween Music...

 Greetings!

So in addition to all the horror/sci-fi/fantasy films out there, what else can help enhance the Halloween season? Music, of course. And one of my favorite albums to listen to at this time of year is the 1985 debut album of the goth/darkwave/synthpop band, Clan of Xymox (also simply known as Xymox). There is just something about this album that makes driving through a fall evening with the semi-barren trees and the moon in the night sky with this album playing that just really sets a mood. Even listening while driving on a cloudy, autumn day sets a real tone for the season. The album has a dark, nostalgic, other-worldly sound to it, and some of my favorite songs are "7th Time", "Stranger," and "No Human Can Drown."

You can pick up the album and listen to samples at Amazon.

 I highly recommend if you want a rather peaceful yet slightly disorienting vibe...

She founded the business in 2004 with the intent of creating a line of cosmetics to bring back a fun, luxurious, and elegant experience in applying makeup. Which is something I'm all for. Besame translates from Spanish to English as kiss me , which is befitting because the line started out with their historically inspired lipsticks before growing from there. To m...

For this review, I review Christopher Pike's book "Remember Me." This is a book that combines elements of Horror, Fantasy, and the Supernatural. I will warn that the plot does involve some sensitive subjects, but overall I enjoyed the book. Which Christopher Pike book is your favorite?
