“… yet Daylight put an End to all these Evils…”

“ All these, however, were mere terrors of the night, phantoms of the mind that walk in darkness; and though he had seen many spectres in his time, and been more than once beset by Satan in divers shapes, in his lonely pre-ambulations, yet daylight put an end to all these evils; and he would have passed a pleasent life of it, in despite of the devil and all his works, if his path had not been crossed by a being that causes more perplexity to mortal man than ghosts, goblins, and the whole race of witches put together, and that was – a woman.”

Wicca’s Originals @ Spookzilla Hunt // October 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ Spookzilla Hunt // October 23rd – 31st

Just because a lot of us are quarantining at home does not mean we can’t still have a fun Halloween season! Wicca’s Originals is taking part in the Spookzilla hunt! It runs from October 23-31st!

Over 200 designers have joined to make this a fun experience for everyone. Each designer has made a hunt item (priced only between 5-25 L$) and each store has a hunt key. If this sounds like a fun experience then head on over to Spookzilla!

For our gifts, you just have to find those 10 sweet little ghosties hidden all over the sim:

Wicca’s Originals @ Necrotize // October 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ Necrotize // October 21st – November 20th

The Ayda Outfit will change you. It isn’t just an outfit, it’s a device that can deliver to the wearer either ultimate pain or ultimate pleasure. Being directly connected to the erogenous zones, as well as plugged in to several nerve clusters along the spinal column, stimulation of various sorts can be applied. One might notice a lack of remote control, that is because the Ayda Outfit reads your darkest impulses directly from messages sent along your spine. It does ask for consent. It does not respect safewords. It adjusts dynamically to your own responses. Some reports claim the Ayda Outfit has caused neural overloads, brain damage from the sheer intensity of agony or euphoria. Wicca’s Originals assures you that these reports are false: the Ayda Outfit is an extreme one, but is safe to wear and use. Comes in 10 dark color patterns in one set, for Maitreya, Freya, Legacy, and Slink Hourglass bodies. There is also a color edition, which comes in 10 vibrant, brighter color palettes.

This evil thing, it knows me…

Ashes, ashes

Lost ghosts surround me

Today they Bloggies took place, the Blogger and Vlogger awards done by BVN. I was nominated in quite a few categories and so when I got the taxi to the celebration event, I did throw on something as formal as possible for me – I do not own one single gown anymore – and took the ride to the Seraphim sim, where the event took place. I never expect to actually win something as the competition is huge and there are so many amazing people nominated.

A lot of people were there and it looked all very festive and classy – I again felt so miss placed *giggles*. I am not used to go to such celebrations or awards, eve if as a musician in RL we had some… I just can’t get used to it for what ever reason. When they started the announcements and who won all the categories (yes there were quite a few :P), I still felt somehow excited and nervous. Even if you never really count to win something, the hope that it nevertheless happens sticks deep inside somehow, I guess that’s human after all.

But all of a sudden I heard the speakers saying my name and I was like “Wait what?!?” and it seems, I won the Best Shoe blogger award! O…M…G…! Thank you so much for everyone that voted for me!

If I remember correctly I got a few awesome runner up placements:

Best Accessories Blogger: 1st Runner Up

Best Roleplay Blogger: 2nd Runner Up

Best Fantasy Blogger: 2nd Runner Up

Best Review Blogger: 1st Runner Up

Best Photographic Editing: 2nd Runner Up

Most Improved Blogger: 1st Runner Up

If I did name the category not exactly right, I am very sorry but when I heard my name again and again I was so excited that I might not have the 100% correct description of some of them *blushes*

Again thank you to everyone that voted for me that really means a lot to me!

But now lets take a lok at my today look as I do have some freaking, amazing designers to showcase!

Yesterday I had the honor to be asked if I would like to blog for {PSYCHO:Byts}… if I would like?!? YES!!! Certainly I would LOVE to! I do love that brand for a longer time and alraedy blogged the designs quite a few times *dances around* And her we go – my first blog as official {PSYCHO:Byts} blogger with the kick ass amazing “Nekhbet Mummy Arms” released at the Salem event. The arms are rigged for Maitreya and Legacy body only. With the huge HUD you can customize the skin, the bandages, the leather parts and the buckles. As well on the HUD you will find 3 buttons called “Whole”, “Half Sleeve” and “Hand”, which gives you even more possibilities to wear your awesome new arms.

CerberusXing and DRD have some hyper cool news as well, fir exmaple the super cool leg bandages I am wearing you can find at The Warehouse Sale event and the incredible mask, which reminded me aboutthe SAW movies , which I totally love, is one of the hunt gifts at the Hallow Manor event! DRD is participating in so many events this month, you better safe your money to get all this amazig designs: Salem, Satan Inc, Fameshed, Hallow Manor, Epiphany and The Warehouse Sale!

I hope you enjoy the dark season as much as I do – Happy Halloween!

Lets have a Smoke…

Again I am coming to you with some creepy news from Madame Noir, Vegas Tattoo and DRD. The amazing statues in my back and the cool rosary you will find at the Hallow Manor event, while the creepy tongue is available at The Dark Style Fair. Lets talk about the cool statues first. The Agony statue collection contains 3 different pieces ( I will soon have a showcase of all 3 in one of my next posts) – one cooler than the others. I do love the one with the book chained against the head the most. For the background I used some of the common parts of the new “Rosewood Asylum” gacha- as well made by DRD – available at Epiphany at the moment.

The scary looking rosary from Madame Noir is connected to some sort of eye caps, which cover the eyes completely. With the HUD you can customize the caps and the pearls to 6 different colors, while you get 3 different metal options for the lines and the cross. The Tongue – available at Salon 52 – as well comes with a HUD, that allows you 7 lips colors, 4 tongue colors, 3 metal colors and 4 colors for the spikes above the lip.

An event I did discover because of Vegas Tattoo is the Panic of Pumpkin in Okinawa event. Vegas Tattoo released that cool “Death Geisha” tattoo and it perfectly matched my todays style. What I love a lot about this tattoo is, that it goes up to the chin. It gives an even darker and as well cooler look in my opinion and it isn’t that common to have a tattoo coming up so high – I love it :p As always you will get 3 different shades for your tattoo – light, medium and dark.

Damn only a few days  left until Halloween finally arrives… so much more creepy and scary ideas and so short time! *runs back to her working platform, shooting new pictures*

“If you want to survive, you’re going to have to learn to be more ruthless.”
[- suzanne Low -]

It is incredible how many amazing terrifying designs jump on the grid at the moment! I know why I keep saying, the actual season is my personal Christmas season *grins wickedly*

At the moment I am watching TWD again and when I saw the new mask from DRD, it instantly reminded me about the “‘Whisperers”. With the flesh and metal parts it is a perfect combination of a scary, horrifying mask. The details are amazing crisp, but that we already know from DRD *winks*

For the top I wanted something rotten, ripped too and CerberusXing had the perfect design for that. Matching the basic apocalyptic scenery, I wanted some cool and special weapons and strapped, used shorts to still let the amazing stompers from DRD shine.

The collar is one of our latest releases for the Hallow Manor event and made the perfect finish for my look today, but I still would love to drag your attention to the closeup below… The incredible cool eyes are made by Madame Noir for the Salon 52 event. Together with the messy eye-shadow and lipstick from CAZIMI they completely kicked my imagination about what this woman could have been gone through, before she ran from that huge fire explosion. Certainly such a strong and powerful woman cannot be without a tattoo and it was no question what ink master she chose when she got it – Vegas Tattoo!

Wicca’s Originals @ Hallow Manor // October 2020

Wicca’s Originals @ Hallow Manor // October 16th – November 1st

The Lamia collar by Wicca’s Originals is another unnerving creation, perfect for a monstrous horror styling in the upcoming season of spooks. Named after the woman of Greek mythology, who was cursed with eternal sleeplessness for sleeping with Zeus and having had her own children slain, Lamia went completely mad and rapidly devolved into a child-eating monster. The legend of the Lamia became a kind of ‘bogeyman’, a story to frighten the young. Now you can share a piece of that curse, if you dare. This collar appears to bolt onto the upper torso, completely replacing the neck all the way to the skull, or you can leave the head absent entirely for a truly disturbing look. Strange, otherworldly ‘teeth’ emerge from many points on the collar, as if hungry for the flesh of any who are unfortunate enough to get close enough to be bitten and pulled in, although these can be turned off. It leaves one wondering what terror, exactly, the collar is covering up. The optional barbed wire tells a story of its own, of some brave soul who tried to strangle or contain the creature within, although that story does not end well. The Lamia Collar comes in clean or bloodied variations, spikes and barbed wire optional, and 10 color patterns for the collar itself are available via a HUD. It can be worn with the Maitreya, Legacy, Belleza, Slink Hourglass & Physique bodies.

Event Location: Hallow Manor

For those how love hunts – Hallow Manor has a hunt going on as well and contributed booties matching the Lamia collar as prize!

“I am the shadow on the moon at night, filling your dreams to the brim with fright.”

RL sometimes really sucks… especially if it eats up more time as planned and it is not on your own to control it. I recently had a change in my RL job and the new association I am working for doesn’t seem like it is as promised when I had my interview there. I am sure many of you know that if you have your interview, everything sounds nice, all questions you had are answered positive, kinda like to good to be true and when you signed your contract, some things surprisingly change… I am sure I will work it out, but at the moment it just pulls on my nerves, it is time consuming and annoying.

It does hold me back from talking as much pictures as I planned and it does throw me back in my planned posts as well. But I will do my best to at least let all my dark visions for Halloween come true in time 😉

Today I do have some news from the mega cool Samhain event. It is a fantastic event, awesome venue and amazing designers do take part. My pictures today do showcase the incredible cool head piece from “CerberusXing”, the heavy arm chains from “Static”, the cool decor set from “Disorderly” and the amazing bra of the lingerie set from “The Rotting Lab”.

The uber-awesome face tattoo is a main store new release by “Eclipse Art Studio”, while you can find the amazing arms tattoo at the “Vegas Tattoos” main store.

I hope you enjoy the dark seas as much as I do – “I am the shadow on the moon at night, filling your dreams to the brim with fright.” — [Oogie Boogie]

Today I have a picture for you, which I created for my exhibition at the L’autre Oeil Gallery. They asked me to create 3 pictures for a special exhibition called “Halloween & Goth”. When I saw the Incredible “Plague Skeleton Creature” mask and hands from DRD, released at The Warehouse Sale, it was a must to use them for the picture idea that I had! The hands even come with a BoM layer to make a smooth seam between the hands and arms. While I was styling, I realized that CerberusXing just released new horns at Necrosis another cool event for this season you should not miss out!

The cool tattoo, which perfectly matched the look, I found at Nefekalum Tattoos and the awesome, filigree outfit was made by ERSCH.

This time of the year is like my personal Christmas season. I do love all the dark, mystic and scary things – I know… no news so far – and I can promise, that I already have a few more ideas in mind in that kind of style, for my next few blog posts 😉

Wicca’s Originals – NEW Group Gifts and a NEW Group Special!!!

Wicca’s Originals @ The Mainstore // Group Special

Fierce and feminine, sadistic and sexy, tough and tantalizing. These pairings of words begin to describe these bloodied Alannah Boots, a Halloween holiday offering by Wicca’s Originals. Sleek material conforms to every contour of the leg from mid thigh down, widely spaced laces slide up the front of the leg like a tight corset, and bands of spiked studs wrap around the leg and front of the boot platform, promising a very wicked kick. The only question is whose blood is that? Comes in ten colors to match a myriad of fashions.

This item is exclusive to group members for the low price of $L99, which gives you a HUD full of bloody leather options (10 colors and 6 metals).

Exclusive for our Wicca’s Originals Group Members we have the Jane Body Suit (Maitreya & Freya) and our Three Dog Hat (unisex, with resizer) in BLOODY styles! They are perfect for Halloween, role play or those who enjoy styling with a bit of blood 😉
