We came across Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine and were intrigued by the cover illustrations. We haven’t read the stories yet so can’t tell you what happens, but we love imagining the solutions!

Thought I’d share my favorites

(Full post here<<)

Whang! [X] My new favorite. What can I say, I love whang. Dude covers weird and forgotten mysteries of the internet. Doesn’t drag out stories, is informative and entertaining. 

LordanARTS[X] This guy goes in depth about cases in his “Brainscratch/searchlight series He covers true crime, cold cases and missing people. 

Reignbot [X] I really like Reignbot’s channel, she’s great at analyzing mysteries and conspiracies and the like. Her voice is also really easy to listen to and she often does in depth horror movie reviews as well as lists. 

Vintage Files [X] Unsolved mysteries, strange cases, creepy photos, everything.

Shrouded Hand [X] Paranormal / creepy / Aliens and UFO’s

NightmareExpo [X] Another great channel. Reminds me of Reignbot in a way. Reviews and analysis of various web-series and creepy content gone viral along with scary story times and a "disturbing things from around the internet” series.

NightMind [X]I like Nightmind a lot. Good creepy channel with analysis of mysterious online videos and coverage / reviews of creepy online content from around the internet. Really worth subscribing to.

Rob Dyke [X] specifically his series “seriously strange” / twisted tens and the anatomy of a serial killer.Rob’s channel has a lot of good quality content and since he’s been around for a while now, he’s got quite a few to binge on. His channel covers everything from unsolved mysteries, serial killers, and twisted top ten lists. 

Elders Vault [X] EV dives into unsolved mysteries with his “Beyond the vault” series and it’s very, very interesting. Really like the guys voice, easy to listen to, well worth a sub.

OrderoftheGoodDeath[X] …more commonly known as “Ask a mortician”. It’s all in the name, the presenter of the channel is a mortician, and her channel features morbid and interesting content surrounding death and everything about it.

Caylleigh Elise [X] Another great channel, especially the “Dark matters” series.Features topics along the lines of true crime, missing people, unsolved murders, and the odd list video.Very respectful and informative. 

Gloomy house[X] As the user name suggests, pretty gloomy content. From “videos that will make you lose hope in humanity” to “The euthanasia roller coaster” and even “the Mickey mouse sex tape”Hmm.

Crime documentary [X]
It’s all in the name. This channel has a lot of true crime documentaries, usually 40 minutes and longer.

I thought I’d also make a little sub-list of scary story channels I like, because I do listen to a bunch of them. If you don’t know, scary story channels are basically people reading either listener submitted, or online sourced real life terrifying experiences. These are good playlists for just before you go to sleep or whatever. Some of the readers have branched out to do lists and cover crime or paranormal stories too.

Burger king foot lettuce. The last thing you want in your burger is foot fungus. But as it turns out, that might be what you gEt.A 4channer uploaded a photo anonymously to the site showcasing his feet in a plastic bin of lettuce. With this statement, “This is the lettuce you eat at Burger King." 

【暦擬人化　その28】
8/17～8/22は第39候・蒙霧升降（ふかききりまとう）。
夜間に気温が下がり夏の湿気った大気や地表が冷やされて、
濃い霧が立ち込める季節。

「霧の帳」という季語が伝えるように、
遠くが見通せないこと＝神秘や幻想、不安の象徴とされます。
また霧は水蒸気が細かな水滴となり光を反射・吸収・散乱させる現象のことで、
「蒙霧（もうむ）」はもうもうと立ち込める霧の様子を、「升降」は昇降を差します

Cooking With Christie Outtake!

He turned her head like Dracula, and managed to steal some of that hunger, too, his eyes flashing white before he descended to plant his lips against her neck. She shivered as his skin met hers, her whole body tensing for a second, before she melted in his hands. A trickle of girl that he just about kept in one piece with a hand on her chin and another against her cunt. 

There are the mysteries you solve, and the ones you leave alone. Curiosity only does you so many favours, and while the impulse is always there, sometimes you had to ignore it. She was his mystery, and he didn’t ever want to find out the rhyme or the reason, he didn’t want to understand her on so fundamental a level that he could predict her, and direct her. It felt like a contradiction, even as he thought it. But it wasn’t. It was merely truth.

He’d mutter in her ear ‘You’re mine’, a primal claim that they both chose to believe. He’d act like he knew her thoughts, their signature written across her face, and in her actions. He’d tell her what to do, and she would do it, because that was how it worked. But each time, David Hume would grin and wave a hand in greeting in the back of his mind, and his certainty would waver. It was just a flicker, really, and it barely got anywhere close to registering on his face. An inward tick, a flash of anxiety.

What if she said no?

What if she didn’t do as she had done, what if this time was different?

What, for that matter, was making her do what she was told in the first place?

She was a mystery to him, on such a deep level that it didn’t even bear contemplation. She gave him the power that he wielded over her, and he had no idea what it was that made her surrender, to have that inclination. He didn’t question it, because he was afraid that the answer would break the spell. He didn’t question it because he needed that magic, and he wasn’t ready to let it go, just yet. 

His teeth grazed against the soft skin of her neck, and she moaned, her body writhing underneath him. The hand against her shifted, thick fingers pushing into tight holes, and the noises spilling from her lips like wine only grew richer, a dozen flavours contained in a sound. He savoured her, then, with everything he had to savour. He tasted her on his tongue, drank her through his nose, let her linger on his ears and felt her… well, just about everywhere. 

His mystery, and just about perfect as she was.
