Along came a Spyder....

STORYLINE: For centuries the Spyder Clan interbred to strengthen their unique web weaving espionage powers. Viuda Negra, the daughter of Viscount and Viscountess Spyder, was the first Spyder born with white hair. Her power was the pinnacle of Spyder prowesses, but it came with a terrible price, four extra eyes.

Oh the things of nightmares. Are you scared of Spiders? Perhaps heights or clowns? Don't miss The Nightmare Event! This year it's expanded by adding a huge marketplace of awesome, more scary rooms to explore, and 25 pumpkins to find for  free gifts from the merchants. I love the haunted surrealistic landing area, its so creepy and cool. ...From the event shown above is the Aii Arachnia mesh head. It comes with mouth open and closed, 9 eye colors, 10 system skintones, and appliers for TMP and Belleza. The head is mod so you can drop your own skin texture on it, or head over the Omega store to pick up an Omega applier for the head. Sweet! Also by Aii is the creepy tongue with spiders, love the drool effect. The spider on the face is a free gift from Nightmares by the Doll House. Other spider theme goodies are the Caught by the Spider jewerly set by Lost Junction, and spider's web by Uncertain Smile. The windblow hair is by Tableau Vivant, and mesh gloves are by Boom.

STORYLINE: There's nothing a teenage girl wants more than to fit in. Viuda was no exception. Fear gripped her heart as the new leader of the Vampire Nation, Maximilian Spyder enacted his first decree, the destruction of Cursed. "For too long we have been imprisoned in this cursed land, this penal colony of Darks. No more!" he roared to thunderous applause. "Go now, return to your families, your homes, your lives so cruelly snatched away from you. You are free at last!" She watched silently from the shores of a foreign beach as the only home she ever knew, the only place where she had been truly accepted, sunk below the waves in eerie blue flames. 

This spider by Ravenghost is fantastic! It moves like a real spider! So creepy cool! When you wear it, you can choose between 2 poses, riding or walking. When jumping the spider will animate, and when crouching down it will raise its legs for an attack and make a scary sound! I love this spider. He's the rare at the Wayward Halloween event. Also from Wayward, is the Faida Vanessa dress. This one is the rare and it comes with hud to change the front colors. And because I'm having so much fun with this spider theme stuff, I added the Moon Amore La viuda Veil from the Lost and Found event. By Ayashi is the Irime hair with works great with the spider mesh face. Adding a bit more Black Widow style is the Antique Collar by Theater Chain. You can play the machine at mini RMK Gothic, (btw RMK Halloween 2015 is going on now!)

World Goth Fair: What We Do In Cursed, 1

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Good evening mortals. Welcome to Cursed's 4th annual World Goth Fair. As relations between The Dark and Humans normalize, we hope a tour of the city with opportunities to meet our colorful denizens will help promote understanding and trust. I am Commander Ashe of the Night Troops. I will be your escort. We are not that much different than you. We creatures of the night put on our black leather pants one leg at a time too. But if I were you, I would not lag behind. Some of the residents have more hunger than sense. Follow me.

The bats have left the belltower, its time to get your Goth on! The World Goth Fair is open! Each year World Goth Fair tries something new: things that didn't work out get dropped, and new ideas are tried. There will be staggered releases throughout the event, and several on May 22 for World Goth Day itself. And I am excited to tell you this year a little batty whispered in my ear something very special is going to happen. Something that uses the words "Gothic Bands" and "LIVE in SecondLife" in the same sentence. Watch the official World Goth Fair blog for an official statement, bands, and times!

If you are new to this World Goth Fair madness, check out this nice Dark Beauty Magazine interview with one of the holiday's co-creators, DJ Cruel Britannia. In fact, Cruel Britannia will be one of the many DJ spinning the tunes right here inside SL for the all day party on May 22 for World Goth Day! Don't Miss it!

STORYLINE: It was supposed to be easy. It wouldn't matter he didn't have experience at this whole vampire thing. Just pick up a pretty little drunk girl at the concert, follow her home, and when she passes out, drink her blood. He'd get a nice buzz, and in the morning she won't remember a thing! It was brilliant! And it would have worked too if not for her roommate who caught him in the act. He woke up with a horrible throbbing knot on the head, and he was handcuffed to the radiator. The girls were debating what they would do to him. He gulped.
