Short post tonight because it’s the Monday before Christmas and I wasn’t going to post anything, until something on Boardgame Geek sparked a thought.

Horror movies are not really my forte (though I have to say that you should definitely check out Dust Bunny now if you can! It’s great and not really much of a horror movie, but it’s still fun).
