NEW YORK CITY, NY. On Sunday night, emergency services received a call from an Upper East Side apartment complex where investigators discovered a man who scooped out his own eyeballs. According to the man’s neighbors, his dog was barking so loud that they knocked on his door to tell him to “Shut up or go back to Staten Island like the trash disguised in a suit you are!” They found the door unlocked and naturally, went inside to snoop. The elderly couple were horrified to find weed and a bong. They immediately called the police to report the drug possession. When the cops arrived, they saw the body with missing eyes and asked, “Um, why didn’t you tell us about him?” The couple apparently replied, “You smoke the Devil’s lettuce, the Devil smokes your ass.”

The victim, identified as Simon Saiz, was transported to the Lenox Hill Hospital and immediately pronounced dead, considering the medical team could see each other through his brain. The emergency room doctor, Dr. Emoio said, “I’ve never seen anything like that before. Hehe. Eye jokes. We try to have fun here.”

After our crew told him that was insensitive given the grotesque and unfortunate death of Simon Saiz, Dr. Emoio replied, “C’mon, it’s New York, baby. The other day I saw a rat humping a meatball sub get run over by a pedicab. The blood and meat, from both the rodent and sandwich, sprayed all over the tourists riding in the pedicab. They don’t call this place the concrete jungle for nothin’.”

Our crew didn’t even bother to ask Dr. Emoio more on Simon’s death. The man was clearly unable to feel emotion towards living beings. The investigators were a little bit more helpful. Well, actually, from the afterlife, Simon was the one who helped solved his case. After sweeping the apartment, a detective came across a note that said,

“I’m always seeing the quote, ‘Out of sight, out of mind’ on my Pinterest wall, but I didn’t really ‘get’ what that means until recently. Suddenly it clicked, if I can’t see shitty things…. then there won’t be shitting things. So tonight I’m taking out my old peepers. And if you think I’m nuts, Justin Long has a fruitful career and life even though his eyes were removed! I think they just CGI his old eyes in and BOOM. He’s set.

All I know is, I have to SEE for myself if what they say is true <3

Out of sight, out of mind.

xoxo,

Simon Saiz”

Oh, Simon. Jeepers Creepers wasn’t a documentary, and you never really did figure out what the saying means. Poor, Simon Saiz. Always doing what he’s told.

OMG so true!! Simon should have followed this Pinterest quote instead because my girlies and I live by this one 🙂

LTD: The Firing Squad

Published

on

So you’ve just gotten the pink slip.

Work is letting you go. Amidst all of the layoffs, you just didn’t make the cut. Well, I’m sorry to say, but it behooves you to go quietly. And quickly. Because you don’t want to stick around for the Firing Squad…

In fact, if your HR department is outsourced to one of those Eldritch contractors like so many are nowadays, get outta dodge NOW. Like seriously. Leave the lunch you brought in the fridge; leave the personal items in and on and around your desk. Hell, leave your coat and purse if you are not near them. You can get new ones. Maybe one of your ex-coworkers can help you retrieve your stuff later. Because you need to get out while the getting is still good.

The Firing Squad is coming.

And if they so much as see a pink slip anywhere in your immediate vicinity, it is complete and total annihilation…

I warned you… Those Eldritch contractor HR departments mean business… It’s like going to the Library. Or making Jell-O.

Be sure to follow these simple library rules to ensure that you don’t end up victim to some Cthulhoid Lovecraftian nightmare. Because all of those books in one place can only mean one thing – certain doom!

Poster spelling out library rules, featuring extraplanar librarian.

Artwork description: A bloody female face with metallic crystalline eyes stares blankly at you from her strange ensemble of splattered fur trimmed weirdness. She leans against front of an overflowing bookshelf, guarding its contents.

Image text reads: Welcome to the library. Please follow these simple rules to ensure your safety and the well-being of those around you.

1.) Be quiet. the Eldritch horrors are sleeping. Do NOT awaken them. Ever.

2.) Do NOT open any portals to any interdimensional voids while here at the library. Please check out any such books and do so at home at your own risk.

3.) Do NOT recite any spells, hexes, or incantations in any books found herein, even accidentally. Again, do so at home at your own risk if you must do so at all.

4.) Do NOT smile at the librarians under any circumstance. Doing so will invite terror beyond mortal comprehension.

5.) Do NOT burn or deface any of the books. This incites otherworldly wrath.

6.) The library will NOT be responsible should you awaken any Eldritch horrors, open any interdimensional portals, cast any spells, smile at the librarians, or burn or deface any of the books. Any attacks to your person, belongings, soul, or next of kin are solely your responsibility; you are NOT entitled to legal, medical, monetary, spiritual, or any other compensations on behalf of the library or any of its affiliates, either here, extraplanar, and/or beyond.

For more otherworldly Cthlulhoid horrors, consider making a Jell-O concoction or succumbing to the allure of the Red Lady

LTD Dream Subscription Service now available

Published

on

If the Metaverse isn’t all-encompassing enough for you (or if you simply don’t have the time to join in the fun there), you may want to look into the big new fad on the horizon: Dream Subscription Service. You simply sign up with some of the lesser demon angel types and you’re set. Visions will start coming in your sleep almost immediately.

There are different types of Dream Subscription to sign up for.

You have your surreal shit, the working through things dreams, prophesies, sexual fantasies, night terrors… You name it, they offer it.

There are some caveats, though.

Celebrity appearances are not included in base packages; cameos cost extra depending on demand. Upload speeds may vary depending on location and times spent resting. And Dream Subscription Service will not be held responsible for what you do in your waking hours in response to visions received. Oh, and there is a chance that you might be driven to madness. But just be sure to read all 197 pages of fine print to get all the details worked out for yourself.

How do I sign up?

If you are interested, just repeat the same chant three times before going to bed and a sales rep will visit you in your sleep.

Sign me up now. Sign me up now. Sign me up now.

Registration Chant

There may be a waiting list, but they usually tend to get through the queue in a couple of nights. It can be easier signing on as a new Dream Subscription Service client if you sleep at odd hours though. Sometimes it also helps if you write Dream Subscription Service Sign Me Up Now in the steam on your bathroom mirror before going to bed. Or spin backwards in a circle three times while chanting.

Note: Do NOT use Dream Subscription Service if you are currently taking JeeperzCreeperz or have done so any time in the last century. That shit’ll fuck you up.

Also Note: Make sure you are signing up with the one and only original Dream Subscription Service and not one of those knockoff Cthulhu variants. Those are pretty much guaranteed to drive you insane (it’s even in their fine print in Eldritch Horror speak).

And if you really want to know more about a dream you’ve had, consider dream interpretation to get some ideas of possible symbolism. There are several Dream Dictionaries online including this one available through Psychologist World.
