Halloween Radio Update

March 10th, 2010 by John Wolfe

I’ve received the okay from another really talented, dark ambient artist, Kammarheit, to feature some tracks from the album, “The Starwheel” in the Season of Shadows Halloween Radio player. Tracks 11 through 13 are “Klockstapeln,” “The Starwheel (Counter Clockwise),” and “Spatium.” I’ve been a fan of Kammarheit’s music ever since Victor of Haunted Hot Sauce turned me on to “The Starwheel” over a year ago, so it’s a huge honor for me to feature these works! I hope you enjoy the new additions to the player as much as I do.

Creepy Forest

March 9th, 2010 by John Wolfe

Desolate, wooded areas, in the throws of winter, always inspire my imagination. There’s something stunningly haunting about forests, especially on overcast days, when naked, gnarled tree branches jut across the backdrop of foreboding clouds–looking like sharp fingernails poised to scratch an immense blackboard in the sky.

As I’ve spent time walking along the Bosque (meaning woods or forest in Spanish), here in New Mexico, I always do my best to take a mental snapshot of the spooky imagery. Then, I try to infuse the feelings that imagery evokes into the creative process of making my props and setting up my yard haunt.

Just in case you don’t live near any creepy woods or happen to have access to the Bosque, YT user, oRisinai has created some footage that will bring those locations to you. Though it’s very short and has no plot or major storyline, the vid does a great job of capturing the haunting atmosphere and ambiance I love about woods and forests.
