It's August and you know what that means? The Annual Halloween Party on Zone Base starts NOW! Until the end of the Spooky Season, Pumpkin Spiced Mayhem will run rampant. If it's your first Halloween on the site, there's still regular content, but there's Halloween in between. Think of it as the best kind of Oreo. Unlike bigger sites with all the acclaim and maybe two posts, there'll be a whole lot of Halloween Hootenanny going on here!
Over the years I've gotten a bit of a reputation for posting some of the more obscure media during this time of the year. There's a some old standards and a few annual traditions. However the bulk of it tends to be from pretty far left field. This year I feel like I've curated some really forgotten and undiscovered gems. The play list is back again as well. Now with even more sinister songs for your ear holes. You can find it on the side bar or on Spotify.
Thank you all for celebrating Halloween with me again this year. I look forward to this all year and hope everyone enjoys the scary fun. Thank you so very much for continuing to support Zone Base. Don't forget to bring a glow stick when you go trick or treating and please share with your friends!
Thanks for coming back for another week here on Planet Zone! Beast Summer is in full swing and I can see it's going well. I hope everyone had a great weekend, mine was certainly restful. In fact, I think I got more sleep in the past few days than the entire week before. Plenty of gaming was had. Specifically Run Saber for SNES, Cotton for Neo Geo Pocket, and Magical Chase for Turbograpx 16 were enjoyed. I guess sci fi action platformers and witchy cute em' ups were on the menu. Plenty of paranormal TV was watched as well as the debut episode of AEW Collision, a new Saturday night wrestling show from my preferred company.
The wrestling provided a great match for some school lunchroom style pizza from a local grocery store. Just right for a Saturday cheat meal. Sunday was Father's day and even though I don't have human children, apparently our furry ones got me a great suprise (according to the Mrs). A new lunchbox for work and some toys. Studio Series Battletrap and Cheetor from ROTB (which we all recently enjoyed) and some Bandai Ultimate Legends Demon Slayer figures. Tanjiro and Inosuke! I also ordered the new Battle Tribes drop. This drop is a great Micronauts themed set. I got the three new figures and am super pumped looking forward to their arrival.
It's summer and you know what that means? CODE ORANGE! The past few weeks I've seen a lot of folks finding great early releases from their local At Home, Old Time Pottery, and Hobby Lobby. Myself I've seen some bleeding candles about two weeks ago, and some gargoyles last weekend after ROTB. I didn't look this weekend just to give the store some time. I did see plenty of folks on YouTube showing off theirs including some early Dollar Tree finds! My stores tend to really get in the mood around July so there's no point in getting to excited yet, but I am anyway. Halloween is almost here Zone Base readers and I've been at work preparing for the Pumpkin Spiced Mayhem starting in August. For all of you enjoying Beast Summer, don't worry I got your back. 2023 will be Beastly Halloween on Planet Zone! What's that mean? Well, you'll see.
