theoddmentemporium: Grýla In Icelandic mythology Grýla is a terrible mountain-dwelling monster and giantess who ventures down from her lair at Christmas time in search of naughty children to cook in a stew and eat, with the vain hope of remedying her insatiable appetite. According to the legend Grýla has been married three times and her current husband, Leppalúði, lives with her and her their sons, the Yule Lads - mischievous and criminal Santa-type figures who also torment the Icelandic people by harassing sheep, stealing food, and window-peeping - in their cave in the Dimmuborgir lava fields, along with the black Yule Cat. The legend dates back to the 13th century, though it didn’t become associated with Christmas until the 17th. In 1746 a decree was issued banning the use of Grýla and the Yule Lads to scare children.

theoddmentemporium: A form of “treatment” used up until the mid 1900s was to put patients of female asylums in these baths, zip them in from the outside so they are unable to get out, and leave them in these baths for several hours, usually in a dark room. This was considered ‘therapy’ Suddenly reminded of American Horror Story Asylum :)

This is the kind of mad stuff I come with when I get bored of excessively rendering out 3D animations. Chances are it will be a real film some day…

vincentfuckingprice: Happy Thanksgiving from VincentFuckingPrice! I hope you have a wonderful, safe holiday with your family and friends. Bonus points if you will be using a recipe from Vincent’s cookbook for your dinner! Living in a country without thanksgiving is like being allergic to dairy products. Fucking Shit! I miss being in the states…
