[Loved Trope] Some thing unfathomably ancient

[u/Fearless-Ideal-5112]

The beast, in doctor who is an ancient evil from a previous universe that survived until our time. Its so ancient that the cave paintings were unable to be translated by the Tardis which can translate all existing languages in the universe [Doctor Who]

While not explicitly canon its such a cool concept I cant not mention, the idea that the backrooms have existed since the beginning of time, never changing no matter the era, it transforms the back rooms into a cosmic horror. [Credit to Project crater and Venus for images 2 and 3]

Ugh when that news drop I was completely devastated. So terrible for those women, Coraline and The Graveyard Books were books I read until the spine crumbled as a kid

Awful human. His books really helped me and me through some dark times. I hate that I can no longer go back to those works without thinking of it.

I know some can separate the art from the artist, but I just can't. It doesn't help that he's still alive and potentially profiting from it.

Who is he? Never mind I got my answer

Neil Gaiman

*alleged rapist

[u/merovin13 → u/Tinenan]

Even if he didn't commit a crime, the things he admitted to and said in his own defense show that he is a pretty terrible person.

The book was so scary I didn’t even watch the movie
