Monday of the New Week

It's Monday and you know what that means, it's a new week here on Planet Zone! Honestly, I didn't do much this weekend. Watched a bunch of Halloween stuff on Disney Plus. Decorated the yard a little more, was going to put up some lights but it started raining. Guessing I'll do that next weekend then. Found the reissue BW Megatron at Walmart. Bought the reissue BW Megatron at Walmart. Saw the new 'The Haunted Museum' show on Discovery +, that's a pretty good anthology horror show.

A lot of the paranormal shows on Discovery + are like that, anthology horror shows based on allegedly true events. I'm not saying I 100% believe them, but I'm 100% entertained. This one was much better produced than the others, probably due to Eli Roth's involvement. It's based on items from Zak Bagans paranormal museum. The show starts with him talking about and item and the show tells a story about it. The end has text telling how it ended up in the museum.

It's pretty good. I like most of the shows on the service and channel already, but it's a higher quality production than normal. Ghostober is really good this year. I've got a fun week planned here on the site. Halloween is well underway and we're in the main event month. Thanks everyone for continuing to support my weird little site about robots and monsters. Don't forgot to share with your friends, that's all I ask!

The Web Of Darkness Is Always There

I love Discovery Plus. Allegedly there's some really informative programming on there, but all I've watched is paranormal and true crime shows. The newest really took me by surprise. It's an horror anthology with similar production values as Are you afraid of the Dark?, Goosebumps, and Tales from the Darkside. Needless to say, I love it.

The series official description reads- "Deep beneath the outer layers of the internet is a web of darkness, inhabited by the unexplained and the unnerving. Inspired by true events, these terrifying tales are brought to life to thrill, chill and feed the need for supernatural delights."

An episode will generally go like this. Bumper segments of a computer screen displaying web search results or an online chat leading to a scary story which is then played out for us watching. Each segment is around 10-15 minutes resulting in episodes with around 3-4 stories. Allegedly 'inspired by true events', so I figure it's sourced from various no sleep posts and creepypastas. It's the perfect show to binge and fill the gap until Halloween. Web of Darkness is exactly what we needed this spooky summer.
