Limbo Video Game

     If you're looking for a fun yet spooky video game to play around Halloween or any other time of the year, you should look at playing Limbo.

     The premise is that you are a boy in Limbo searching for his sister.  The game has a slight element of gore to it when you don't solve the puzzles, but I believe that you can change the settings to turn off any unsettling elements if that's not for you.  The game is completely in black and white and has an ambient score which creates an eerie setting for this puzzle solving game.

     I know that it is available through the X Box One store, Google Play, and is available for the Playstation 4.

     I downloaded Limbo last year around Halloween.  I haven't finished it yet (I'm not the best video gamer, so games take me awhile) but I still like to play it every now and then.

     I've added the trailer for the game below so that you can preview it.

Hello Everyone It's Icky.

Hello everyone it's Icky Ichabod.  I am a poet, musician, and lover of all things Halloween and spooky.  Halloween is fast closing in and I am excited and bewildered at the same time.  I spend a good part of the year waiting for it and then it happens and is over until next year.

I usually begin watching scary movies in early September and then keep going until November.  It's not just Old Hallows Eve that I enjoy it's the whole of fall.  The weather is mostly nice, things are kind of winding down for winter, and there are lots of festivals and activities this time of year.

Well with that said I am going to give you a poem from my book Paranormal Poems that is available on Amazon (HINT, HINT).  With that said enjoy.

Halloween Day


Across the world on Halloween day,
Ghosts will haunt, and goblins will play.

Spiders are known to hide under beds,
And jump through the air onto boys and girls heads.

Black cats may be seen crossing the street,
And bringing bad luck to those that they meet.

Jack-O-Lanterns smile their menacing grins,
As light shines out from candles within.

Vampire bats and witches will fly,
Under the moon in the spooky night sky.

Monsters of all shapes and sizes you'll see,
As they're playing their tricks, while looking for treats.

And if you are lucky on Old Hallows' Eve,
A bag full of goodies, you may just receive.
