It Came from the Closet features twenty-five original essays by writers speaking to this relationship, through connections both empowering and oppressive. From Carmen Maria Machado on Jennifer’s Body, Jude Ellison S. Doyle on In My Skin, Addie Tsai on Dead Ringers, and many more, these conversations convey the rich reciprocity between queerness and horror.

In the darkest reaches of the human psyche, there is no corner quite so dark as the fear of nameless, inevitable Fate.

I love following roads and crossing bridges built by the genius mind's of Sylvia Plath, Oscar Wilde, Edgar Allen Poe and too many more to list. So I hope you like to travel... because that's the best part about turning pages.
