The short version
In an announcement from Eric Kapitan on the book's Facebook page, the e-book version of Darkness: Poems of Extreme Horror was set to be free for the next couple of days. The post urged readers not to miss the chance to pick up the collection, described as poems written for the sicker side of horror.
Horror Underground had already reviewed the book, so the giveaway was flagged as a quick way for readers to try the collection before the window closed on October 31, 2015.
The promotion was time-limited and has since ended. The print and standard e-book editions remained available through the retailer listed in the original post.
When decorating a home with a spooky yet stylish touch, the key is blending eerie elements with everyday comfort. Darker accent walls in deep charcoal or midnight blue can set a moody backdrop without overwhelming a space. Layering in warm textures like plush throws, synthetic fur pillows, and wooden furniture pieces softens the atmosphere while keeping the horror-inspired aesthetic intact. Subtle touches such as cheesecloth draped over lampshades or vintage-inspired wall art featuring haunted imagery add character without turning a room into a full haunted house. The goal is to create a space that feels inviting yet intriguingly dark, perfect for those who appreciate the beauty of the macabre in their daily surroundings.
Seasonal decorating for Halloween offers endless opportunities to get creative with DIY projects that transform both indoor and outdoor spaces. A front porch can become a welcoming yet chilling entryway with carved pumpkins, ghostly figures, and strategically placed spider webs. Inside, consider adding small horror-themed vignettes on sideboards or mantels using miniature skeletons, black candles, and autumnal foliage in deep orange and burgundy. The beauty of this style is its flexibility from subtle nods to the season in a living room to full-blown spooky displays in the yard. These decorations can be crafted from everyday materials, making horror-inspired home design accessible to anyone with a creative spirit.
