Gothtober: a Calendar of Halloween Treats

Every October for 19 years now, Julianna Parr of the art organization Sparklebob and her team put together a calendar called Gothtober. It's like an advent calendar, in that a new treat is uploaded to open and enjoy each day. That means that every day on October there's a new entry from a different artist to make you flee in horror, cringe, or laugh. It's mostly laughs, though. And since the month is almost over, you've got plenty to see by now.  

Most of the entries are short (1-3 minute) videos, but I also encountered some still artworks and a few that are slideshows with links to content elsewhere. The theme this year is "truck stop," but  that's just a suggestion. They all have to do with horror or Halloween. I particularly recommend #6, the women behind horror films. The artists for each day are introduced here. You can also visit Gothtober projects from previous years here. -via Metafilter
