Cool pics, but it is clearly fabric in each one.
Ectoplasm. Ectoplasm denotes a substance or spiritual energy “exteriorized” by physical mediums. Ectoplasm is said to be associated with the formation of spirits, and is to be formed by physical mediums when in a trance state. This material is excreted as a gauze-like substance from orifices on the medium’s body and spiritual entities are said to drape this substance over their nonphysical body, enabling them to interact in the physical and real universe. Some accounts claim that ectoplasm begins clear and almost invisible, but darkens and becomes visible, as the psychic energy becomes stronger. Still other accounts state that in extreme cases ectoplasm will develop a strong odor. According to some mediums, the ectoplasm can not occur in light conditions as the ectoplasmic substance would disintegrate. Ectoplasm is considered to be a hoax, made from cheesecloth, gauze or other natural substances.
I could use a good brew right now to wake me up.

Beautiful cover on a true classic

“The Metamorphosis and Other Stories” by Franz Kafka
I'd like to have this; Irish folklore is one of my favorite folklore/mythologies that I've researched.
This is amazing; we often personify various parts of our body. But little did we know, that it turns out our body personifies itself.
Your body is an incredibly bizarre machine.
“What you see is a myosin protein dragging an endorphin along a filament to the inner part of the brain’s parietal cortex which creates happiness. Happiness. You’re looking at happiness.”
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking-Glass, Lewis Carroll This is 1 of 15 vintage paperback books that comprise our current giveaway.
I've always believed this to be canonically correct.
Fun fact! According to folklorists, all myths, fairy tales and nursery rhymes that are about some dude named Jack are talking about the same guy
What this means is, that ever single one of the following
Jack Be Nimble (who jumped over burning candles for fun)
Jack the Giant Killer (who sold his cows for magic beans then robbed and killed a giant)
Stingy Jack (who tricked the devil so many times he was banned from both afterlives)
Jack of Jack and Jill (who splattered his head open falling down a hill)
Jack o’ Lantern (the headless horseman spirit of halloween)
Jack Frost (the spirit who heralds the end of autumn and the start of winter)
Are literally the same jackass who made so many bad life choices he ended up an immortal ice dullahan with a pumpkin serving as both his head and flashlight
God I love him and his work! He was a brilliant yet sadly troubled man. P.S. just watched Loving Vincent: It was Brilliant!
