Zombie Woman Climbs from Casket Six Days after She Died
A 95-year-old Chinese woman, thought to be dead and placed in a coffin, terrified her family and neighbors by climbing right out after six long days. Must have scared the living daylights out of her neighbor Mr. Qingwang, who was the first to discover the empty coffin.
Joshua Hoffine takes the most distinctive horror photos I’ve seen. If you’ve ever come across a horror photo that made your skin prickle, chances are it was one of his. His work explores both childhood fears and those of adults, with everything from the monster under the bed to the killer through the keyhole.
He’s back, with Persephone.

That? Not a Photoshop. If you need me, I’ll be in the corner, whimpering.

Today I received a very special antique from my mother in law.
His name is Oliver, and he comes from my husband’s grandmother’s aunt’s mother.
He needs some love. But until I can find someone who can fix him up properly, he’s perfect just as he is. Either way, he’s going to be the crown jewel of my writing room, and will stay in our family.
Here’s hoping I can do him justice.
“Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE) is the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities.”
Often haunting, urbex photos show the abandoned, the decayed, the forgotten.
Old hospitals. Rusted theme parks.
Empty insane asylums…like those on Dark Passage’s Hospital Hopscotch.
Frightening? Or beautiful?
