Give me DAY 6, and I’ll Give you SPOOOOKY!

starter

For Jennifer Jordan Day’s piece, she went and visited an actual abandoned drive-in!!! She was out there, rootin’ around all the rotten stuff, being careful where she stepped, taking photos, studying the terrain, making anthropological discoveries. See what she found on Gothtober Day 6!  Jennifer is a Gothtober veteran, you can see her other Gothtober pieces in the Gothtober Archives, she is Day 19 in Gothtobers 2006 and 2007.

J.J. Day is also a film maker, her animated stop-motion film “Make a Mate” is currently on world tour, and if you’d like more information about when and where it may be playing near you, check out the Facebook fan page of the film! Hooray DAY 6!

Who Else Wants Sexy Gold Lamé?

GOTHTOBER DAY 6’s unveils the sassy music video of Monica Howe, which takes a brave bold look at the hallowed cloth of gold called Gold Lamé. If you haven’t explored a bold foray into the wearing of this fabulous fabric woven from metallic yarns, it’s time to start. Once you’ve become properly inspired, perhaps then deck yourself out in some shiny golden magic, like our fantastic songstress here. And yes, I said songstress, and here is her website so you can find out more about the woman behind the shine. Hooray DAY 6!

Gothtober Systems are GO!

This is the title card from DAY 1 on the calendar, a little piece called “Halloween Safety” by The Art of Bleeding! It’s quite a perfect chilling and weird and trippy little way to start our countdown! If you live in the Los Angeles area, perhaps you’d like to catch a Live Ambulance Show by The Art of Bleeding, they’ve got some performances up their sleeve for the month of October, put on your bow tie and go check The Art of Bleeding’s Paramedical Funhouse! And if you run into Abram the Safety Ape, tell him Gothtober says hi!
