Hello everyone, we had a bit of a storm over the weekend so we decided the best way to pass the time would be to frighten the bejesus out of ourselves with a horror marathon.
We made a list of 20 movies, 10 picks each, 5 watched and 5 unwatched, and chose one randomly just before watching. We did cheat once but what’s life without a little naughtiness.
We gathered our snacks and prepared ourselves for hours of terror at 1pm. Over the ensuing hours, my hair got progressively fuzzier (most likely from fear not lying on a fluffy blanket) and himself made no noticeable changes but I’m sure he was shivering with terror on the inside. We took minor breaks for food (and to cower behind the sofa) but we managed to watch 6 movies ending our marathon at midnight with some very bloodshot eyes.
Best Movie of the Night
If you take one thing from this post it’s that you should watch Train to Busan. If you’re a zombie movie fan you should really have watched it already and I’m a bit disappointed in you for not doing so. What are you still doing here?! GO WATCH IT! Well, maybe watch our video first then go watch it 😁

The Irish Readathon | Aesthetic Reading Vlog
Hi everyone, happy Thursday! Hope you’re doing well in your part of the world. This week I was inspired by a style of vlogging popular in Japan and South Korea. These vlogs put more focus on the aesthetics and sounds of home life. I find them to be extremely relaxing and soothing. I’m prone to… Read More The Irish Readathon | Aesthetic Reading Vlog
Clothes that Make My Vintage Heart Sing: Sylvie Facon
Sylvie Facon is truly an artist. The dresses she creates are more akin to masterpieces that have jumped out of a canvas than evening attire. Each one tells a fantastical story you can’t help but wish you were a part of. The pieces are often inspired by everyday things such as books, a violin, buildings… Read More Clothes that Make My Vintage Heart Sing: Sylvie Facon
The Irish Readathon | Reading Vlog Week One
Happy first week of the Irish Readathon! I kicked things off this week reading 3 books. I started one of them in February but I really want to share it with you all. It’s something every person who identifies as female or has a vulva would find a lot of value in. There’s always value… Read More The Irish Readathon | Reading Vlog Week One
Train to Busan was so dang good! I usually don’t like zombie movies anymore, but I was going to watch this no matter what because Gong Yoo is a sexy mf- but the movie was aaaactually amazing!
What did you think of Tucker & Dale vs Evil? That’s my go-to when I am having a bad day and need a good laugh! 🙂

My wife has a tendency to watch multi episodic programmes she finds on Netflix but I am awfully glad she hasn’t inflicted a horror movie marathon on me as it’s definitely not my favourite genre of film!
