We Love Salad Fingers.
David Firth's post-apocalyptic horror cartoon, "Salad Fingers," is kind of amazing. We've been a fan for years. If you're not familiar you must check it out and if you are familiar then there is no better time to get reacquainted. Our favorite episode is below. You're welcome.

Spook Show at Canal Park Playhouse

Entering the historic Canal Park Playhouse is like taking a step back in time. Their Spook Show which is has been extended until May 22nd is presented on Tuesdays at 7pm.
This performance is not for die-hard horror fans. It is a family friendly romp with the occult. It is a perfect way to introduce children or easily frightened adults to illusion and 'spooky entertainment.'
The Spook Show stars Cardone the Magician, a vaudeville-style magician, ventriloquist, and escape artist, who works hard to keep the audience entertained. A highlight is the menacing guillotine that never leaves the stage. The show runs a bit long at 90min with an odd 3 minute intermission, but for the timid horror fan this show packs a big punch.
