DSoD Documentary?!

Yes, the rumors are true: someone is making a DSoD documentary!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/philipbswift/the-dark-side-of-disney-a-documentary-film


If you haven’t already heard about it, here’s the scoop: Philip Swift made an amazing film about Celebration, FL called “The Bubble”. I loved the film, he loved my books, and we struck up a friendship. So, when Philip came to me with the idea of a DSoD documentary, I was both excited, because I knew he’d do an amazing job with it, and reluc...

HABST and the DISNEY SABOTEURS is out!!!

Darknet drugs. Sex and seduction. Disney’s destruction. Just another day for… HABST and the DISNEY SABOTEURS!



Meet Reginald “Habst” Habstermeister: burnout, urban explorer, and loveable loser.


Leeching off his oversexed underage girlfriend, and living the life of luxury in her wealthy mother’s mansion, he doesn’t have a care in the world.


But when Habst unwittingly becomes the prime suspect in the sabotage of Walt Disney World’s most hated attractions, he has no choice but to enter a seedy web o...

Non-Bamboo Forest Awesomeness!

Wanted to let everyone know about some non-Bamboo Forest projects I’ve really enjoyed recently!


First up is Styrofoam Throne, by David Bone, which is, as of this writing, free on Kindle! This is a coming of age type of book about a young, kinda awkward guy who lands a coveted job at Castle Dunes, a haunted house on a California boardwalk. He ends up drinking excessively, doing a lot of drugs, meeting a hot girl, getting into fights, and other such shenanigans. It’s definitely R-Rated! Reminded...

Finally, DSoD shirts!

People have been asking for years for DSoD shirts, and it just seemed like I never got around to it. But I finally got a bug up my ass, knocked out some kick-ass designs, and setup a shop on RedBubble just in time for Christmas!


http://www.redbubble.com/people/bambooforest/shop


Four different designs on high-quality American Apparel shirts. You can choose color, size, and whether you want a regular t-shirt, a girl-cut shirt, or a hoodie!

If you buy one and wear it to the parks, PLEASE PLEASE PLE...

The Death of the Blog :(

You might have realized that my posts here have ground to a halt. For better or worse, this blog has been dying a slow, creaking death for a while now. Unfortunately, with all of the publishing, writing, traveling, and video work I’m doing, I don’t seem to have enough time to sit down for an hour or so every few days and write up a long post about stuff. I find it much easier to do lots of micro-posts on Facebook and Twitter – perhaps things that don’t deserve a full blog article, but which a...

Amsterdam and Doper Posters

Lots going on with the DSoD crew these days! Here’s a bit of what we’ve been up to:


True to my New Year’s resolution, Pentakis and I went on a trip that didn’t involve anything having to do with Disney, although it certainly did involve the “Dark Side”…. We went to Amsterdam! It was honestly one of the best vacations I’ve ever been on. We did it in style, flying Business Class and staying in a nice hotel, since Pentakis had never been oversees and I wanted her to have a good first impression o...

Long Time No Blog!

I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve been a piss-poor blogger as of late. And while a lot of my absence had to do with an insane amount of admittedly awesome stuff going on, part of it also had to do with some crappy stuff that happened which I felt people were waiting for me to comment on…. But fuck that. I’ll write what I want, bitches!


First of all, the Disneyland Resort is amazing, and it makes WDW looks like a big pile of shit in comparison. There were so many little things that I didn’t...

Charity Auction Results and “It’s Kind of a Cute Story” Pre-sales!

Well, the Kinsey Glasses auction to benefit Give Kids the World was a smashing success! The glasses went for $212.50 to a lucky bidder (who happens to be a big DSoD fan), which means that after my dollar-for-dollar match, Give Kids the World received $425 altogether!


I threw in a bit extra for the match to cover the PayPal fees


I’ll definitely be doing this again in the future. Would anyone be interested in bidding on the silver mask and glasses, or the Anarchy Mouse Ears from the DSoD cover?


In...

Auctioning off my Kinsey Glasses for Give Kids the World!

I’m thrilled to announce that I’m auctioning off my infamous Kinsey Groucho glasses for charity! This is the disguise I wore in many of my videos and at public appearances. Now that I’ve retired from backstage exploration and don’t need them anymore, I’ve decided to auction off the glasses and donate 100% of the winning bid to Give Kids the World, a charity that treats terminally-ill children and their families to weeklong, cost-free Central Florida vacations. Not only that, but I’ll match th...

Monorail Bar Crawl Video and New Store!

I wanted to let everyone know that Bamboo Forest Publishing has a new storefront. It makes for a much nicer shopping experience, and definitely looks more professional. But, even better, it’s the only place where you can buy signed copies of the hardback version of Ron Schneider’s From Dreamer to Dreamfinder! They make excellent holiday gifts, so head on over to the store and pick up a few for your theme-park-loving friends and family!


Also, here’s a video I posted last week of a crazy Monorai...
