i just saw a chilling video from Springfield. a man speeding home from work found a glowing green uranium rod in his trousers and threw it out his window, nearly hitting a skateboarding boy with it.

Pictures and video coming out of LA are devastating. City looks destroyed, completely submerged in water, fire and explosions everywhere, and a small plane just crashed. Praying for survivors.

Our short film “TOE” was recently featured in @nathanieltolle book, “Horror Galore: 300 Fantastic Fright Flicks Youight Have Missed”. It’s a fantastic read and we are just floored to see it mentioned alongside some of our favorite horror films 💀💀 . . #horror #Filmmaking #film

My new book Horror Galore: 300 Fantastic Fright Flicks You Might Have Missed has a chapter on short films, and one that's highly recommended is TOE (2019), from @Workshedanimate, adapted from a classic scary story to tell in the dark. bit.ly/3WZ8Xvr

On this day 22 years ago, a bunch of weirdos in Denton, including our buddy Rick, held a high concept garage sale where all the prices were determined by mysterious masked figure. Happy Pricemaster Day to those who celebrate.

Things I think about a lot. I often think about 31 year old Trey Anastasio walking on stage for the first time in front of 70,000 fans at Phish’s first solo festival in 1996, after grinding the previous 6yrs, averaging ~105 shows a year during that period. Just look at his face

It has a bit of childlike whimsy that encapsulates the stories in a way that few others do. It was chosen to be the very first story, and I think there is a reason why... The Big Toe – The Classic Story’s Origin, History, and Meanings scarystudies.com/big-toe/
