You often find references by smug ghost-hunters to 'normal streets' and 'normal homes' troubled by spirits as if this was shocking combination. Fools. The ghost is found where we live, where we work, where we play. The only abnormality would be if this wasn't so. – #CJosiffe

Goodnight from Gemma Wyard, wishing she could remember her grandmother’s spell for summoning bravery in the face of piggish men and minor demons. Goodnight from Dr. Kane, pleased with the progress of his blood and dust homunculus. Goodnight from Hookland.

Hookland is a community. It manifests wherever its diaspora wants it. If you are heading out to the cloudless place, don't forget to say hello.

Most resort to the largely 19th century folkloric tradition and describe those sealed stone entrances of churches as 'the Devil's door'. However, at St. Aldate in Rough Maidens, the blocked entrance is so small that it is known as either 'the Imp's door' or the 'Faery's door'.

Goodnight from Gemma Gutteridge, trying to discover a spell that will allow her to acquire that shimmering dress in the window of Godiva’s Rescue boutique. Goodnight from the Wood Sprite Long Malice, dreaming of new swear words to teach children. Goodnight from Hookland.

Goodnight from the landlord of The Jolly Salter at Wink, keeping the same ritual of bolting the windows and doors in a particular orders so as not the change the luck of the place. Goodnight from Colombo the cat, hunting the faeries only he seems to see. Goodnight from Hookland.

Soooooo, I'm terrible / hate doing this but I have a book out next year, 'The Ecogothic Werewolf'. Probably not a stocking filler but I think a pretty good read - I was brutal in the edit. waterstones.com/book/the-ecogo…

Possible unpopular opinion here but surely unis should be better supporting their early and mid-career researchers by helping us secure funding & expand our portfolios rather than create 100 well-paid, superstar posts for those already well-established in their respective fields?
Uni of Birmingham@unibirmingham

We're delighted to announce the next cycle of recruitment for our 125th Anniversary Fellows and Chairs is now open! If you are an academic with a strong portfolio of global-leading research, we want to hear from you. Check out our vacancies and apply now: fellowsandchairs.birmingham.ac.uk/?utm_campaign=…

I've just discovered the old Hookland dialect word of 'tanbel'. It means the natural enticement that exists to walk a dark path into a wood even though part of you knows it almost certainly leads to danger or high strangeness. – MattAdams, 1982 #WOTD

Between tick & tock lies a dislocated hour. Home to things with names too terrible to say. In the lost hours, in the gained hours, temporal spirits come through. Between tick and tock, some swear they can hear a soul trapped in time, scratching at glass. - #CLNolan #ClocksGoBack

Hookland communities can be found on most other social media platforms. The county refuses to be anyone’s reason for staying on here in the post-block removal era. This guide will be staying on Twitter because the motto has always been re-enchantment is resistance.

So, it's hard to overstate how incredibly important - & generative - @AdamScovell's FOLK HORROR: HOURS DREADFUL AND THINGS STRANGE (Auteur, 2017) has been & still is. Always mentioned in critical work on #folkhorror & it remains at the top of my pile, something I dip into often
