Welcome back horror friends! Today is our last week with featured artist, John E. Richards. It was an absolute pleasure hosting his work here for the month of January, and I feel like it started off the year with a real BANG! If you would like to learn some more about our artistic benefactor there’s an incredible interview with him on Horror Addicts that you should check out: horroraddicts.wordpress.com.

To Inspire You

Something scrapes above my bed,
Each night brings that moment of dread,
Where I know he's looking to be fed
My little demon, attic head.

Poem by Jeanette Andromeda

Last week we heard the cries, and here’s what was written:

Yikes! Wednesday already? Which means I missed #horrorhaikuesday.

I'll pretend the clock did not advance and post to this fun prompt. Look at the art! How can I resist?

Protector, rebel,
Avenging angel rising

Earth beneath my feet,
trembles, warm, beating. Eyes grow
large like hell's black gate #HorrorHaikuesday pic.twitter.com/3DDA6G9Syr

The monster within
burst forth after her chaste lips
set on human flesh.

The woods perilous
to the trespasser, weak, slow

In winter’s shadow,
the forest howls under moon
And Wendigo comes #HorrorHaikuesday pic.twitter.com/L5lv8AprAv

Wood spirits arise!
Rude men come with saws, but soon
we will hear their cries!#horrorhaikuesday pic.twitter.com/LSNQfo7f58
