Zombies Are A Fact

Recently, zombies have been invading our small screen and the theatres. Either from famous shows as The Walking Dead or World War Z.

A Source of Entertainment

The term zombie has been part of our lives for centuries, but most recently, gained in popularity. However, research proved that zombies are a fact.

Zombies, Living Dead, Revenants, those terms all refer to a reanimated corpse without consciousness. Either from TWD or a Thriller video, they have common traits of decaying bodies, often their arms reaching forward and eyes without a reason to live.

Phantom of the Opera Review

I was young when I first read The Phantom of the Opera. I was attracted to it because of the theatrical essence of it and its Gothic origin.

The Original Summary

The story is known, the telling of the pages has been done and redone in many ways, and so now, I never thought I’d say this but here is The Phantom of the Opera book review.

First published in French as a serial in 1909, The Phantom of the Opera is a riveting story that revolves around the young, Swedish Christine Daaé. Her father, a famous musician, dies, and she is raised in the Paris Opera House with his dying promise of a protective angel of music to guide her.

The Sandman A Poem And A Nightmare

The idea of someone throwing sand in my eyes to have one fall asleep is a creepy thought. Isn’t it?

Scary Granulated Stones

There are not many monsters that scares me, however, when it comes to the Sandman I feel quite disturbed.

He comes in your room at night, throws sand into your eyes and makes you believe it’s for good dreams and yet, I used to have night terrors.

To me, growing up, the Sandman was nothing more that a dreadful evil dust merchant.

Pharaoh Mask

Curse of the Pharaohs

Mummies have been part of the horror classics since its first discoveries in the early twentieth century. However, curses themselves attributed to the tombs date far long before Europeans discovered them.

Back To The 6th Dynasty!

Ancient rubbers didn’t wait for the tombs to be documented and instead, went for the rich noble treasures. There was no home system back then, so an excellent old curse had to do!

In particular instance, curses engraved on the façades of tombs could be present. From the 6th Dynasty of Khentika Ikhekhi, more precisely Mastaba, situated at Saqqara, the curse itself aimed toward the priest as a warning to protect the tomb to preserve its purity ritual and discarded robbers all-together.

Kerrelyn Sparks How To Marry A Millionaire Vampire Review

I must admit I read, Kerrelyn Sparks’s How To Marry A Millionaire Vampire a while ago, but I still remember it quite well, and I thought maybe it was time for me to do a review about the first book in the Love At Stake series that I read in two sittings.

Nice & Easy

The book itself is quite enjoyable, first of the Love At Stake series by Kerrelyn Sparks. There is no pretence in her writing which is something that I very much enjoy. It is easy to follow, no complications or “read between the lines” all is very well exposed and because of her writing, very relaxing.

The story was captivating from the beginning. The adventure very well thought out to be just enough that you don’t want to put the book down, yet just relaxing enough that you keep turning the pages. It was quite well thought out.

Vampires are a fact?

It is a controversial thought to believe that vampires might be real. People might find you crazy. But what if the myth has some truth to it?

Vampires Older Than Time

Vampires have been part of our folklore for hundreds of years. The beliefs that a being subsisting on the vital fluids of a human has timelessly been retold numerous times around the world.

To be quite honest, I wonder why it hasn’t been part of an episode of Ancient Aliens! Because when you do a little research it has you thinking if vampires are a fact.
