Over the Garden Wall (2014)
half an edible ingested, pumpkin juice candles lit, it’s the great pumpkin charlie brown in the background, repotting my fifth attempt at cultivating basil, pizza just delivered and heating in the oven, cider poured and being gently nursed, “oh potatoes and molasses, if you want some come and ask us” riding around my kooky cerebral carousel, kids just got spooked by my witchy eye makeup while handing them reese’s… yeah, tonight feels good. warm and sweet and grounded and like maybe the world isn’t quite so insufferable after all.
#happy halloween ya spooks#not to be sickeningly saccharine but#……#i love ya#halloween#*hands all of you your favourite candies (or w/e you’d like if sweets aren’t your thing)*#things that make me want to keep breathing#hang on… i gotta do something#🧛🏻♀️🩸🍏🍂👻🍎🍁🪄🧙🏻♀️🕯💀🧣🎃♥️🧤#ok i’m good#2022#personal#***

Arsenic and Old Lace (dir. Frank Capra, 1944)
We were married today. We were going over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Your brother tries to kill me. A taxi is waiting and now you want to sleep on a window seat. You can take the honeymoon, your wedding ring, your taxi, your window seat, and put ‘em in a barrel and push ‘em all over Niagara Falls!

The Addams family was, in fact, both magical and supernatural for its depiction of a healthy, loving, supportive, and fun married m/f couple.
This is now officially an Addams family appreciation post
In order to depict such purity and love in a m/f relationship, one must first set the foundation that these people are odd and not the norm. (per media standards)
They cared about their children, their children’s interests, and wanted the kids to always be true to themselves. How peculiar!
Gomez and Morticia never showed negative jealousy towards each other’s past love interests. Even going to far as complimenting them for being special to their true love. How bizarre!
They could forgive almost any character flaw in a friend or relative. The only thing that could not be forgiven was betrayals and pastels. Weird amirite?
Morticia is a woman’s woman. She allies herself with other women instead of competing with them. She even seeks to understand women different from herself and her beliefs. Strange.
Gomez wants Morticia to have whatever Morticia wants. He doesn’t give her permission, he actively supports her and motivates her. Fa-reaky.
I seem to recall once reading a review that said that Gomez and Morticia were the only couple on television in the 1960s whom you could actually imagine producing children.
The color of Halloween is black and orange fading into each other, sort of like a sunset. There's a smear of grey in there as well, and some golden sparks. The color of November 1st is a dull, drab, hangover grey.
I love this so much. Halloween is precisely that, yes. If it were an ‘aesthetic colour’ post it would definitely include burnished gold, spice, honey, rhapsody blue [the colour of the sky right after sunset but before pitch black dark of night], haunting steel grey, and black hole/void black. To me, November 22 is the colour of an overcast drizzling sky, amber, eggplant, and the murky spruce soul-wrenching despair when you realise you are nowhere near where you thought you’d be at this point in your life and have little hope for a more fulfilling future…

btw: no 'Exorcist', because hilarious religious scare-ploys/crucifix-fucking and I'm a godless, unaffected pagan. no 'Hills Have Eyes' or 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre', because. no. also [come at me I'm ready] I'm not a huge fan of Hitch, so I only included one essential up there. just not my cuppa. blecch white male gaze on objectified white blonde-haired women... NOPE.
