Podcast Episode: ROCK DEDICATION: He Never Died (Dedicated to JEFFREY
Now I know the mysteries of the sea, Tranquil emerald hues, emerald blues, enrapture me, Forever embraced with the mermaid queen, Now I know why the mariner nervously glances, Why no one on Grand Isle will ever say he died. For I too, will never die. They say he never died! In the night his spirit glides, Through the cold the sea roars, Pierre lives on forevermore. -
ROCK DEDICATION: He Never Died (Dedicated to JEFFREY JAMES LEBLANC, SR.)
Tranquil emerald hues, emerald blues, enrapture me, Forever embraced with the mermaid queen, Now I know why the mariner nervously glances, Why no one on Grand Isle will ever say he died. For I too, will never die. They say he never died! In the night his spirit glides, Through the cold the sea roars, Pierre lives on forevermore. ---HE NEVER DIED -
🖤 It's happening! Finally the details are confirmed and I can share this thing I've been working on for a while -- I'll be hosting an Ancestral Sigil Making workshop on Sunday, October 18th at Brewja Elixir in Joshua Tree.
We'll be working within a communal setting using a somatic method to pull two sigils: one made by us, that we will burn at the end to leave behind. One made by another attendee as we make theirs to carry ancestral wisdom forward into the season, marked with jagua on our skin. Be prepared to come for the afternoon, settle in, and truly integrate into the experience. If you were looking for a good time to take a trip out to this region I hope this is it!
If price is what's keeping you from going, I'm starting a waitlist for a certain amount of pay-what-you-can seats, so just DM me to get on that, and those seats will be released about three weeks before the date of the event. You're all getting this about a week before I'll be ready to post it on Instagram, and before the owner of Brewja puts it out on her network, so if you are interested you'll be set to get seats before anyone else.
I know most of you aren't local, but I wanted to share here anyways, I'm very very excited to have the space to host this event.

I hosted many memorable parties in my lifetime, before becoming a confirmed Hermit, but perhaps the best was our 1977 "Disco Wizard of Oz" Party, based on the "Meco Plays 'The Wizard of Oz'" Disco Album.

One of the theories I explore addresses the question: why are these two Munster-Mórrígna found in seasonal *triples* celebrating #imbolc, #Bealtaine, and #Lughnasa, but not #Samhain? And the answer, I think, is that in these guises they represented stages of the Corn: Planting, Ripening, and Harvest.
That leaves one season and one goddess, but we already have a good idea: the last sheaf of the corn was woven and kept respectfully for next year, and called the #Cailleach - the same name as the goddess of Winter.
That seems to put the Mórrígan in the position of being the representation of the "Maturing/Ripening" stage of the Corn. Planting should be done by Bealtaine! Planting is Brighid's business! :)

Project Caligari
As the days tolled ever onward to All Hallow’s Eve, an opportunity arose to make use of a new creative space on campus – just by our CentR Stage bar and just in time for the Academy’s Halloween party. Despite only receiving full access and equipment on the morning of festivities, a hastily scribbled tribute to the legacy of cinematic horror was set in motion.
Knowing partygoers were there to chill, chat, and indulge appropriately themed cocktails, there was no expectation they would sit down to watch a full film. Instead we planned a minimalist immersive area to relax in, with low-slung sofas encircled by rear-projected screens showing multiple silent movies. A central plinth would hold an object of focus and contrasting colour from the cold scenes on display.
Implementation demanded a different design – not least a lack of haze, incense, and human remains – with a trio of floor-sat units forward-projecting onto a curve of black drapes. The plinth then sat behind the sofas, adorned with a plastic pumpkin pilfered from the bar – ideally replacing it with the winner of the party’s carving competition.
Vintage horror sourced from archive.org provided the (cunningly Public Domain) vibe, with many films planned for each screen through the night. Technical difficulties, however, meant we had to lock each projector down to a single looping movie – controlled by a laptop behind the curtain running Resolume Media Server going into an HDMI splitter.
The chosen films presented a journey through the early years of macabre movies. An era where the steadfast rules of cinema had yet to be written, inspiring a vibrant visual imagination lost in a later generation of sedate talkies.
The vivid expressionism of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) was an essential choice. The first feature-length horror committed to celluloid, and one which many have not been aware. Director Robert Wiene’s eye delivers a pioneering dream-like ambience to a tale of grisly murder, with hand painted backdrops accentuating this unreality.
Next, F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922) – another German Expressionist classic. Despite drawing the ire of the Stoker estate for obvious plagiarism, this film offers its own interpretation. Max Shreck‘s Count Orlak presents an iconic image of vampyric horror as a monstrous being, a presence revisited in subsequent remakes.
Completing the triptych with another tale retold through the generations, James Whale’s Frankenstein (1931) was filmed with spoken dialogue. However, the rich gothic design still offers strong visual storytelling, with Boris Karloff‘s taciturn performance as the monster just as captivating in silence. A cornerstone of Universal Studios’ shared monster cinematic universe.
All crew work is collective, and we could not have done this without the aid of veterans Nick and Max, who helped to set up and put the final pieces together while I was embroiled in all-day lectures. Their efforts ensured the project was finished to schedule.
Freshers had their chance to contribute too, with new student Ruby curating a masterful multi-genre playlist to accompany proceedings. Although I was obliged to throw in a few extra tracks at the end, we all agreed to remove ‘Monster Mash’ after the shuffle spookily reprised it over and over.
Nothing can ever happen without some form of improvisation, and the taming of wild ideas into practical necessity manifests many happy accidents. The surreal imagery of early experimental cinema, especially in Caligari’s twisted set design, was thrown further off-kilter by the warp of the drapes. An abstract unease accentuated by the imperfect focus and inconsistent framing. It is important, at times, to let go of perfection so things can simply find their own form.
Overall, it went down very well. Partygoers drifted in and out to watch and take photos, enjoying my eager explanations. The client and crew working in the main studio also popped in to take a look around in appreciation. The only complaint from some was the installation wasn’t ‘scary’ enough…
… but the True Terror was throwing it together on time!

Good morning. 🧙🧙♂️🧙♀️
30 October 2025
Charlie and I love walking the forests in the morning. Still, we need to stretch farther from the house—perhaps into the winding paths of Kisatchie National Forest, which lies not far from here. All it takes is loading up the truck, slinging the camera over my shoulder, and heading out beneath the pines.
But we must take care.
There are whispers—soft and half-swallowed—passed in churches, cafés, and quiet gatherings. They speak of places deep within Louisiana’s forests and bayous where neither people nor animals dare to tread. No one knows what lies within. Only rumors remain: of black magic, of death, of ritual cannibalism. They say if you come across the signs, do not go further. That is your warning. That is your cue to turn back.
Because there be witches here.
And witches wear no sign.
They look like you and me. You won’t know until it’s too late. They say witches must harvest the souls of innocents to preserve their power and youth. But when innocence grows scarce, any old soul will do. So tread carefully. You do not want to fall under a witch’s spell.
All Hallows’ Eve is upon us on the morrow. Witches celebrate it as Samhain (pronounced SOW-in), the turning of the year. On that night, they pass among us cloaked in shadow and celebration. You will not know if the witch you see is a mortal in costume—or a centuries-old immortal wearing a mask of flesh.
Take care.
“The woods are full of wonders and dangers, both unseen and unimagined.” — J.R.R. Tolkien
“A witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest… because she should be sure in her soul that the most terrifying thing in the forest was her.” — Terry Pratchett
“Samhain is the threshold to the Season of Death… the cycle of life is once again approaching a renewal.” — Dacha Avelin

Der 31. Oktober markierte für die Kelten die Grenze zwischen Licht und Dunkelheit, warmer und kalter Jahreszeit und letztlich zwischen Leben und Tod. Man feierte das Jahresendfest #Samhain. In dieser „durchlässigen“ #Nacht glaubte man, die #Geister der Verstorbenen streifen umher und reichen in das Reich der Lebenden hinein. Da das Christentum wie so oft nicht in der Lage war, diese tief verwurzelten heidnischen Bräuche zu tilgen, griff man zu der bewährten Methode, dieselben mit (1/4)

The Ghost Church of Lukova, Czechia
Built in 1352, St George Church was abandoned in 1968 after the roof collapsed during a funeral + it was rumored to be haunted. In 2012 local student Jakub Hadrava created an art installation which has attracted tourists + donations giving the church a new lease on life
