The Ghost Hunting Housewives!

When I came across the Ghost Hunting Housewives, my first thought was, “Wow, that’s a real catchy name for a paranormal team.” That thought was immediately followed by, “How cool! I’m interested in how they got into this!” In addition to being the most interesting paranormal team in the world, they are also super nice and got back to me immediately when I asked if they’d like to be featured on…

Hi queer fans of queer stuff! How are we feeling with today's TV industry? How about really bloody angry?

Look, the recent cancelation of Dead Boy Detectives is obviously personal for its fandom, but it's also one more nail in the coffin and I think we have to start doing something about it together.

I went through this with Sense8. With Our Flag Means Death. With smaller but also amazing shows like The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself. Not to mention when it's not cancelled yet but it's boycotted with seasons cut in half or zero marketing. *I am tired*.

If you are too, I ask you to join the campaign. This is specifically about increasing views and attention, not because Netflix is necessarily going to change their minds (we know that's unlikely), but because we want to prove that we exist as a group.

So even if you don't feel like actually watching right now, we ask you to give it a stream if you have a Netflix account, with headphones connected or low volume. If you don't have a Netflix account, and honestly good for you, you can help by boosting us in social media.

I do recommend Dead Boy Detectives for real, it's REALLY good, but this is more about joining forces. They want numbers, so we give them numbers in the most petty way: after they cancelled so that other networks will get interested. At the very least, the crew and creators might get some royalties and they deserve it after busting their asses for years to give us this season.

TL;DR: stream dead boy detectives as a community to shove it in their faces

After much research I have decided that vampiric entities in the Americas come in three different types, based on region. If u have any questions feel free to ask.

Vampiric entities of Mexico & Southwest USA:

Ojai vampire

Chupacabra (dog-like variety)

Tlahuelpuchi

Lechuza

Vampiro de Belen

Cihuateteo

Witch-like or animalistic. Tend to feed on defenseless children or animals. Many can shapeshift, usually into animals like wolves or owls.

Vampiric entities of South America:

Pishtaco

Abchanchu

Peuchen

Chonchon

Capelobo

Patasola

Tunda

Boraro

Animalistic and monstrous, many of these are barely even humanoid, usually horiffic to look at. Tend to go after adults, and are usually malicious. Many have backwards feet.

Vampiric entities of the Atlantic Coast:

New England Vampire panic

NYC vampire sightings

Hag, Ole-Higue, & Boo Hag

Chupacabra (alien variety)

Vampiro de Moca

honestly I love that we live in a timeline where beautiful queer media is available in so so many places and so easy to find and even mainstream like that's amazing and we overlook it most of the time

“People who cease to believe in God or goodness altogether still believe in the devil... Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.”

– Interview With the Vampire by Anne Rice (1976)

rashid as the main lead for the talamasca show would be unstoppable. like... he's more than "Real Rashid" and i need AMC to wake the fuck up and secure bally gill immediately.

Dude, you have got to be seriously fucking dense to think Interview With The Vampire wasn't always gay as fuck. It's literally about two dudes that love sucking on body parts living alone and adopting a kid together. That is not a subtle metaphor.

Blurb and pitch for the first Paranormal Postgrads book:

When I say Peter is a disaster, I mean he didn't realise his housemate was a vampire because his own sleeping patterns are so bad that even the nocturnal thing didn't tip him off.

An extremely rough blurb for book two that I wrote a year or two ago (aka before I actually wrote any of the book):

I also have a blurb for the third book, but it's even rougher and more incomplete than these, so I won't share that at this stage.

Anyway, that's the vibe! Extremely nerdy medievalist paranormal romance, set in a world where vampires etc are common knowledge and you can cite them in historical research! (As long as your interviews meet research and ethics standards.) Significantly more academia than you usually find in vampire books, and very much of the chaotic (realistic) variety, not your aesthetic dark academia type.

WELL NOW IM going to think about the "carved floor" and whoever the hell [ERROR] is for weeks, maybe months even. Happy restless nights to me. I also think the point about the key being blindly fumbled is rather interesting, given what happened with red canary

Fastest Growing Fandoms on AO3 This Week (11/07/2022)

Every week I pull data on how many fics are in each fandom and compare to the previous week, then calculate the percentage increase to determine fastest growing fandoms.  Since this naturally skews towards smaller fandoms, I have included the same data filtered to Over 1k, 5k, & 10k fics.

Overall:

Over 1,000 Fics:

oc lore pretty please 🥺

okau okay gonna try and cohere as much as i can here

going with their backstories here cuz yuo said lore specifically :3

starting with pandora . hes based on both soft fuzzy man and touch-tone telephone , hes some sort of sentient mist that also has a human form , stays in mist form most of the time since his human form isnt very stable . partially based him off soft fuzzy man cause i think itd be interesting and partially cause ithink it fits him and laz

he doesnt really . have a backstory past that . he cant remember where he came from at all and just kinda assumes he just spawned in

laz time ^_^ hes based on lifetime achievement award as well as touchtone telephone . hes the runner of a radio show about ghosts and the paranormal , the town the whole story happens in is pretty odd (example: the fucking mist guy) he doesnt believe a word of it though . he just runs the show cause he thinks what people "come up with" is interesting , he writes original stories based on them sometimes . the show's a mix of interviews and laz going into haunted houses and shit and describing what happens . he has seen real life paranormality doing these haunted investigation episodes he still just does not believe its real . hes stubborn . on one of these investigations he fucking dies . the show was very popular with the town , the broadcast station couldnt just let him die . so naturally they revived him !

he continued the show after this . he couldnt just not . he owed his life to this show . rubbing my hands together evilly me when the themes about things characters used to love consuming them whole
