Last Ones Left Alive: Book Review

Happy belated Thanksgiving to all my American followers! I hope your turkey was delicious and your pie was laden with whipped cream.

I had a pretty relaxing weekend, I did make a pumpkin cheesecake which was delicious, even if the chocolate turkey I drew on top looked a little… odd.

So this review is brought to you today by my weird cheesecake turkey (it is spoiler-free up until my spoiler line below…the review that is, not the turkey). Onwards!

His House: Movie Review

Confession: I do read books other than horror. I recently read and finished The Final Empire, the first book in the Mistborn series, by Brandon Sanderson. I am sure, dear reader, you’ve noticed that I only review horror novels, movies, and games on my blog and I always hesitate to change that. So I’ll just say, it was quite the fun read. But for my proper review, I’ll be going over the new Netflix film, His House, which was just released this year in time for Hallowe’en.

Don’t worry, this re...
