As one would hope and expect at Scare Fest. :) Do you all do that trick or treat thing? I read some Aussie’s post last night that there is a lot of resistance toward it in Oz because it’s so American; and my aunt who lives in the Netherlands (How awesome is that name … Nether Lands) says trick or treating is slowly picking up steam there.
Yes, Netherlands is a pretty cool name ;-) We do trick or treat. We also decorate our houses and have parties more and more in recent years, but nothing on the scale of the US. I’d love to experience Halloween in America. Our family have a party every year, but it’s mainly for the kids. Here Halloween tends to be a kid thing. The scare fest was a first for me and I held my daughter’s hand the whole way round – she was the one supporting me though…I was petrified! :-)
Kurt is the author of the romance noir novel Rainy Season, the dark thriller novel The Good Kill, the literary fiction novel Inside the Skin, and the poetry collection Short Verses & Other Curses, among other works. He is also the screenwriter/executive producer of the short film Leave, adapted from his short story of the same name, and which premiered at the LA Femme International Film Festival in 2018.

Kurt Cobain the clown looks interesting. That’s one individual who wasn’t never happy. He sure has great music. Thanks for sharing this! :D

Don’t recognize all of ’em, but most. And as I’m not American, that says a bit. :D

Tom would feel miserable as a clown :D

I agree. And then he would take that misery and turn it into another heartbreakingly beautiful masterpiece for us.
