The upcoming week is the most wonderful time of the year at my house. Now is when I let my fright freak flag fly and I want to share the Halloween love with you, Brethren. Why should the horror-centric parts of the web have all the fun? What with mutinies and rapes, ghost ships and more torture than you can shake a flaming log at, sailors in general and pirates in particular can offer up more gruesome terror than Jack Ketchum and Stephen King combined.
So join me here at Triple P for Horror on the High Seas Week. The fun starts tomorrow with the bloody mutiny on the Hermione and we'll wade through the gore straight on to the 31st. Bring a strong stomach and a taste for shudder inducing voyeurism. I promise, you won't be disappointed!
Pirate Queen,
ReplyDeleteI lost your email, so I'm dropping this here. Did you know there's an American military unit in Afghanistan that actually operates under the Jolly Roger?

Weird.
Ahoy, Pauline! Looking forward to it! Maybe there won't be any zombies, vampires or werewolves, but I'll bet there will be some ghosts and other "paranormal activity... along with all the usual horror. After all who is more superstitious than sailors?
ReplyDeleteAhoy Timmy! Thankee. We'll have more fun than a barrel of guts. A pirates life for me!
ReplyDeleteEmperor of Terror! I knew you'd stop by when the word "horror" popped up. Bless ya. And no, I did not know that! We have a lot of friends over there (Elmendorf and Richardson are close to Anchorage). I gotta dig around and find out if any of my boys are fighting under a Black Flag (no Henry Rollins pun intended).
