Cygnia Posted October 9, 2021 Report Share Posted October 9, 2021 Comic shop is Lost Boys, symbol on chimney is Resident Evil, house beneath the tree is Amityville, stick figure on tree is Blair Witch, jack o lantern is Halloween. I was wrong about Day of the Triffids. That's the egg from Aliens. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got The Stand wrong I meant the Shining The egg from aliens makes thirty I think the sign on the lamp post refers to OZ since it's a witch boot on water. The cricket bat is Shaun of the Dead I think the shovel is from Frailty. The moth on the lamp post is either Mothra, or the Mothman Prophecies, or Mimic. I am leaning toward Mothra I want to say the guy leaning out the window of Mushkin's is the Phantom of the Opera, but I am not sure. I don't know what the jack o'lantern box, and the punching octopus refers to, and I can't see the girl at the table clear enough to identify. If we could get those three we would have them all CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted October 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2021 Ok, I cheated and looked up the answers. Some of the ones we're missing are incredibly subtle.

Tjack Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 OK children, get comfy ‘cause ‘ol uncle Tjack has a Halloween story for you. I swear before all the Gods in Southern California that this is the absolute honest truth....or wouldn’t be funny otherwise. Once upon a time in that magical college heavy city by the sea from whence I came. It was a lovely fall night around this time of year....It was the last Friday of the month and the week had been a brutal one, selling computer supplies and furniture to the early birds coming into their new dorms. Well, after closing up the store and punching out I was dead on my feet and still had to hustle to catch the connecting bus to get to the one that would take me home. So I was about to cross a major city street, I looked both ways and stepped off the high curb in the middle of the street and almost got clobbered by a drunk, driving a black car without his headlights on. I jumped up and back and started to stumble on the curb when a small delicate hand steadied my shoulder. I looked down at my own feet and turned looking first at the feet of my rescuer. Black high lace up combat boots. Black tights with holes in spots. Baggy black shorts, black bustier, black fingerless gloves, pale (REALLY pale) skin, shoe polish black hair in all directions and a pale (REALLY pale) face with an ankh centered over one eye. (Looked a little like Tori Amos) As I tried to get my brain to reboot I definitely said out loud “I think I may be in trouble here.. “ she just giggled cocked her head to the side, smiled at me and turned and skipped away. I spent the next two bus rides and the rest of the night telling myself that it was the last Friday night before Halloween and the area was packed solid with dorms and frat houses throwing costume parties. Sometimes I still tell myself that. L. Marcus, Pariah and wcw43921 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not familiar with that work. But you reminded me of my classmates at university. She always dressed in black and had pale skin. I think she dyed her hair black, but I'm not sure now. But we shared a love of classical music, so we struck up a friendship. Nice lady; attractive as well. I would have asked her out if she hadn't already been married.
