What be this voodoo?



Hello, please, sit down and loosen your knees.

You may be wondering what the heck-fire and damnation this place is all about? What is ‘The Penny Dreadful tale of wonder’? And what do girls look like when they’ve got their pants off? Well, let me answer the first two (I’ve never been able to get a ladies pants off, so can’t answer the third point).

‘The Penny Dreadful tales of wonder’ are a surreal series of fictional stories set in the era of Victorian Britain. They take a skewed look at the inhabitants of this time and feature flights-of-fancies about explorers, captains of industry and captains of boats, musical entertainers, detectives, stern governesses, black magic and the macabre.

These twisted boys-own adventures are written, produced and distributed by myself – and are purely for entertainment value. By that I mean they are free, and a simple, yet hopefully entertaining, distraction in this world of tax laws, software patches and soar-away Sun readers offers to Disneyland Paris.

The idea is these issues will be distributed in hard-copy form as 4/6 page pamphlets, as the original Penny Dreadfuls would have been, within communial areas such as coffee bars, art galleries, rectal thermometer symposiums, and where ever eager minded people gather. If you run/own/have naked pictures of the manager of such an establishment, please drop me a line for some samples. Plain text version are available on the issue posts.. look, there's some on the left...

Lots more guff will be spunked up on this Blog over time in keeping with the Victorian theme, so please sit back, have a frappacino, and enjoy.
