I don’t know if it’s a clever move by the artist, Tentacle Studio or just a fluke of the exchange rate, but Jack Skellington will currently set you back £666. The mask is for sale on Etsy and designed for an adult sized head. It’s made from paper mache but has a waterproof laquer for […]

247blinds launch horror collection
I like these. 247blinds have released a horror collection in time for Halloween. They’re even offering nearly 70% off if you grab one before Halloween. It’s tempting to do that as its a limited collection and I think they might sell out. Yeah, these are real blinds and not just mockups for a marketing stunt. […]
Shelter: Anime music video goes viral
Got to dredge through obscure blogs like Geek Native to find anime music videos? Not in this case. Electronic music producers Madeon and Porter Robinson took their track ‘Shelter’ to A-1 for a video. The result? Nearly 1 million views in the first day and, at the time of writing, 9th in YouTube’s trending chart. […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #1 Horned Raven Mask
The 12 Masks of Halloween is a Geek Native tradition. Just as some people use the 12 Days of Christmas as a countdown to that gift-giving holiday, we use the masks as a countdown to the celebration that’s become all about dressing up and spooking people.

Go wild: A review of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld Colouring Book
Colouring Books designed for adults rather than kids are high fashion right now. I see why; they’re fun. You get to escape into a book, do something with your hands that isn’t typing and get to create. For many of us that’s a rare combination of activities and a welcome one. My prediction is whole […]
Legal nightmare won’t derail this card game
Battle of the Bands is a Kickstarter in which you race to earn fans. The card game is asking for £15,000 and after only a few days has over £7,000 pledged. What could go wrong? I’d say “battle of the bands” is a generic term. Actual battle of the bands rage across the country and […]
A World Without (Dice Pool) Limits: A Review of Shadowrun: Anarchy
Ah, Shadowrun. Perhaps one of tabletop gaming’s most evocative settings, saddled with one of its most complex role-playing systems. For years, gamers have marveled over Shadowrun’s amazing world where Man meets Magic and Machine, then backed away slowly when they hit waves of rules concerning character creation, combat, magic, the Matrix (Shadowrun’s virtual reality internet), and so much more. There […]
