It's October, our favorite spooky season! Which means that it's also the birthday of one of our all-time favorite people, Victoria Nations. You know her as horror writer and biologist, with a flare for fashion and a love for nature. To celebrate, we're throwing her a party. We'll be in the garden, waiting. Don't mind the fog and the sound of creatures lurking beyond the woods. They wont bite...much. Photo found here. Everyone gets a purple candle and a match. And you'll follow the trail, down down down until you're in the clearing, surrounded by giant tr[...]

0 Today, we're lighting candles and chanting ancient songs to celebrate Mary's birthday.

He's also an incredible, hilarious, brilliant human that makes this world a better place. To celebrate, we're throwing you a spooky metal party, headlined by none other than one of your favorites.

Today is a special day. Why? Because Brian LeTendre was born today! Thank goodness! You know him as an 80's hair metal aficionado, master podcaster, incredible author, and all around good guy.

What could go wrong...right? Get ready to bang your head![...]
We celebrated something special this year. You probably saw the post, but on March 17, 2018, The Midnight Society turned four years old! So many blogs don't last a year. I remember when I dreamt up the idea, I was certain that no one would care and certainly no one would want to join...I love it when I'm wrong. Currently we have 9 incredible contributors, over 110,000 unique all time views, and a dedicated readership that we so appreciate. To celebrate, we are re-vamping the site. Soon you will notice a new look for The Midnight Society, new events, and a new[...]
