About E. Bleak

Hi. I’m Emily Bleak. I’m a pro­fes­sional nerd and an ama­teur headbanger.

…as well as a proud pre­ten­tious fan, wheezing road runner, soon-​to-​be-​ex chubby chick, unquench­able opti­mist, obses­sive horror junkie, Tesla Girl, aspiring mono­chro­matic fash­ion­ista, hob­byist blas­phemer, Valkyrie, friend to all dis­gusting or oth­er­wise rejected crea­tures, (very) deeply clos­eted romantic, bona-​fide maneater, ENTJ ex-​goth oper­ating out of the gen­eral vicinity of Boston, Massachusetts. I long to be an Addams.

S. McManbeast is my partner in crime; he writes trans­gres­sive and tra­di­tional horror fic­tion and knows every­thing there is to know about ter­ri­fying films.

Some of my favorite bands include Saint Vitus, Electric Wizard, Drudkh, Blackguard, Lair of the Minotaur, Cirith Ungol, Manowar, Behemoth, Acid Bath, Shellac, LVTHN, Cab Calloway and Circle of Dead Children. Favorite horror picks include Re-​Animator, [REC.], Calvaire, Hellraiser, the Human Centipede, the Lost, Antichrist, Ôdishon, Cujo, and The Fly. If you’re in a band or have cre­ated a movie, make art, or write and would like a review, a spot for a guest post, or to grant an inter­view, please con­tact me!
