Content notes and physical triggers: blood and injuries, lots of flashing lights and quick cuts, religious imagery and symbolism, infanticide imagery, self harm imagery, possession. Lots of 90s style editing and late 90s fashion.

The three graveyard moods:

✨pretty cemetery✨= let me listen to ghost stories and take pictures and make gravestone etchings of this macabre but pretty site

🪦space hogging cemetery🪦= acres of land all around can’t be used for housing or food or parks because we believe in burying our dead with giant slabs of stone for no reason

😔 the dead’s cemetery 😔= gravestones are used so that the living relatives know where to go to respect their lost loved one, and they prevent people from fading into obscurity, which is what many people fear

All Hallows’ Eve draws nigh.

Two femme fatales get into a fender bender but since it was springtime instead of arguing they spend the rest of their lives bending each-others fenders.

Missing fall a little extra today🫶🏼🥺

[averyqueerhalloween]

I've made an Autumn Aesthetics blog so I can keep this account just for Queer Horror. So if you also want a fall aesthetics blog to follow here's mine @autumnsaesthetics !

On there I'll be reblogging other posts and probably be making my own collages as well as posting my own photos of my decorations and whenever my town actually starts to look like fall outside.

I'm so ready for fall, I'm sure I'd like summer if not for where I live but summers here suck, it's so hot and humid, it's miserable outside, I need it to be fall already!

Samhain, the ancient Celtic festival, marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter. Celebrated for over 2,000 years in Ireland, Samhain was a time when the veil between the worlds of the living and dead thinned, allowing spirits to roam freely. It also marked a practical time of preparation for winter and was celebrated with bonfires, offerings, and rituals of divination. Samhain heavily influenced modern Halloween traditions, but it still carries a distinct cultural and spiritual significance today.
