News from the Ghostfacers: Lesson#1: DON'T!

..try this at home...

PS. Even though we DO NOT support these wannbe-hunter-douche-nozzles, we reccomend you go and check out their new HQ here...

The Monster at the End of This Book

Okay, okay...deep breath y'all....deeeeep breath....what do you mean: Sam and Dean are fictional? You do want us to cry, don't you? Cry like little girls who you stole the last cookie from! You can't toy with people like that, not crazy people anyways.

Ok, so what have we here then? Is it a plane, is it a bird? No, it's Supernatural taking the uhm, mickey out of itself.

So far we have:

• a diner called "Kripke's Hollow"
  
• a comic book that is no comic really and is called "Supernatural"
• a comic book cover with "Fabio" on it (hahahahaha)
• an author called "Edlund" like the producer
• National Geographic Magazines in a laundrette? Seems a little far-fetched...
  

Let us know if you find anything else.

Hot Fudge #1

A quick on the spot report from LA, where the Soupdragon is currently vacationing. Y'know, taking in the sights (Winchesters and angels), listening to the stars (Tricksters, back-stabbing Jakes and innocent Obi-Wans/Andys) and general photo-taking, autographing and shopping mayhem.

It's the LA SPN convention: day one.

A quick squiz round the vendors' room to make sure we have autographing material later and we're queueing for Gabriel Tigerman autographs. He's a bouncy wee soul, very Andy-ish behind his desk. We bounce off to catch Julie McNiven (Anna Milton, A.K.A. Anna the angel) on stage. Very sweet and amusing, she was finally asked the question everyone really wanted to ask but were afraid to: "what was it like to make out with Jensen?"

"He was a perfect gentleman about it, and he just made sure I was as comfortable as possible the whole time." The first inkling she had that perhaps kit-shedding was on the cards for her character was when she was told by the wardrobe department that she would need to be fitted for underwear. But hey-ho, that's the job.

Later in the day we saw Alona Tal (Jo Harvelle), and she was hilarious. She was definitely up for sharing and dishing, and very funny and personable to boot. She talked about her dark scene with possessed Sam ("Born Under A Bad Sign") and her enjoyment of the whole danger of what the scene could have turned into. She was quizzed on her work on Veronica Mars too, and it was clear she loved sharing info on the shows she's been on and the stars ages worked with.

Autographs from Gabriel, Julie and Alona later and it's time for a cup of tea!

The late night Purple Night karaoke party went ahead apparently without a hitch - as the sounds of people stumbling back to their rooms on our floor will atest.

Next post: Saturday's guests, tea, famous people, tea, laughs and more tea. Promise.

And hopefully, I'll be able to add some pictures at some point! When I can find a way to get them from my phone / camera over here...

Kripke's Hollow, Dead Parrots & Pie

PS. If you click on the pictures you should get them bigger to read some of the text better :)


The other day at the Diner....




After yet NO pie AGAIN for Dean, they realised all the Diner stink stuck to their clothes and that they hadn't washed their stuff in quite some time...



Fed and freshly washed'n'dried they went down to a shop investigating the case of a dead parrot...finally some action!



Sam had no idea where Dean got the parrot from in the first place and why he was talking with a considerably bad british accent all of a sudden. Maybe Dean needed the parrot for some kind of apocalypse-prevention-plan that Castiel told Dean about? That Angel had some weird-ass ideas sometimes...anyway, Sam decided to play along and back his brother up. This is why the Winchester boys always were such a good team.

So when Sam finally decided to speak not only in his head his voice put the fear of...uhm ..err...god..no...well...kinda...uhm...


....and he also threatened to slap the shopkeeper with a book, but the shopkeeper had no parrots left so Sam's threat did not work on him. Also, Sammy had picked up a Softback instead of one of the 800 pages Hardbacks from the other shelf, so the shopkeeper knew, despite Sam's size and lion strength, that he had nothing to fear. Sam knew he had made a vital mistake grabbing the wrong book, but locked eyes with the shopkeeper until he finally told them to go and see his brother in Bolton, UK. He had an identical shop and maybe he had some parrots left.

So the Winchesters were heading to Bolton...

(may or may not be continued)

SCARY JUST GOT SEXY

I am so glad I found this clip again! When Supernatural first hit they UK this was the spot they showed on ITV2 and I have no shame to admit that this clip DID NOT make me want to watch this series because I really thought these college boys were just another bunch of weaklings taking themselves too seriously and also thought this clip was quite camp...BUT!

There is indeedy a but! Having seen it again 3 years later (oh how time flies!) I take it all back. The clip is actually quite good, with the music and all. And even though that girl is not Ruby it seems strangely accurate and well-suited for season 4. Hmm...maybe the Great Kipke did have a plane after all and is not making it up as he goes along, like the dudes from LOST.

Enjoy!

It's a terrible life

It really is. Have you seen the news lately? Or the the weather report? People have no clean water to drink and...oh, wait, wrong cause...uhum...*cough*

Right, welcome to our weekly bucket load of upcoming episode spoilers. This one is especially creepy to me, the person typing this, as I myself have worked in an office before, in a similar cubicle typ situation and it is not pretty. Been called a "monkey" and what not and many my co-workers were on the brink of an amok run...ah good times, good times.

And the office microwave! Do let me tell you that I always thought that the gate to hell would be big enough for a person to squeeze through, but maybe demons are a bit more flexible since they seem to travel in black smoke form and saving great amounts on overpriced airport and fuel supplement charges.

I must say that I never had this kind of conversation but have had the occasional "oversharer" in my close vicinity. They never talked about ghosts though... wish they had *insert annoyed Sam face here*



Awesome! The world in the hand of our Ghostfacers! "Real Ghosthunters" ?



So remember folks when you leave for work tomorrow:

FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU ARE UP AGAINST!


Aw, come one you guys! Do we have to tell you everything?

Proof of the Almighty!

Alright, alright, alright. I know what you’re thinking. You’re all still strung out over episode 4x16 (‘On The Head Of A Pin’) - but if you're not, I shall not be spoiling it for you. Suffice to say, this is my Knowing Wink Of 'I Saw It Too', and leave it at that. Anyway, if you DID see it, you probably need comfort / something to kick / brain bleach (delete as appropriate).

Well here we are - all of the above. Cos I know you were all also thinking “hey, if we have angels, then maybe there’s a God…” Well of course there is! See? I bring you Exhibits A - D (please not to be laughing at my appalling Photoshop skills, I is a n00b):

Yeah, it’s a shock to me, too. I’ve spent all my life as a confirmed atheist. Now I don’t know where to turn, I really don’t. Thoughts, anyone?

This crazy multiverse...

Today we would like to ask Jared a question. No, not who he is dating or why. Not, what he is planning to do after Supernatural and why. Not, why he keeps bailing on cons, and why.

Frankly, we don't care much for the boy's private life. In fact we are pretty sure it is much, much, MUCH more boring that our very own lives. Sure, he gets to hang out with Jensen, who wouldn't find that exciting at first ...and then once or twice thereafter...but seriously, if you get to see the same people for nine months straight and wouldn't you just want to bail and get a new life?

Ah, simpler times.

Some of you may have heard of facebook, no? We are sure some of you very, very clever ones are trying to hunt down our little demon hunters, but you have to keep in mind, that you cannot hunt a hunter. It won't work. It's only going to end in tears. Or you get disspointed when you realise the one you were hunting was a fake.

We especially like how one profile says "Imposters are like cochroaches: Once you think you've killed 'em all, new ones show up!" - so true.

Jim Beaver, who seems to be the only real SPN actor on facebook that we know off once said in his status message that he is "positive that Jared and Jensen are NOT on Facebook or MySpace....Just FYI" but that is not keeping anyone from hoping, right? There is hope that the Beaver is a fake and if fake Beaver says that then it could be a false positive, right? Come on, we know how your minds tick. After all it takes a crazy person to know a crazy person..or wait, no the sane ones claim to spot the crazy ones... ah forget this argument.

Anywho, who can blame you to hope? Just search (we know you have done so already but stay with us) for Jared or Jensen on myspace and facebook and you will find millions of clones out in the cyber world. Many times we have come to wonder if reality has split into several new dimensions and makes it possible for one person to be in more than one place. Sometimes that place is Kansas, mostly LA it seems. Maybe the idea of Mystery Spots across the world is as real as an index finger pointing at an idiot. Seriously, either science hasn't had time to research all this simultaneous phenomena properly yet, or there simply IS no phenomenon. Boring as this may sound. The rule is, that the simple answer is always the right one.

Back to our question for Jared...we recently keep saying Jarhead in our minds and have no clue why. Damn the crazy!

Now, if you Jared Padalecki were to go on facebook, what would you actually do with it? And b) would you seriously use THIS --> picture for your profile?

And last but not least, Jared: WHY ARE YOU KISSING (or eating?) A CHICKEN HALF NAKED, DUDE?

Just wondering.

Remember, takes a Crazy to know a Crazy, right?

THAT'S what our Sammy does!

Sammy, Sammy, Sammy...

At second 0:15 we finally discovered what Sam and Ruby are up to all this time, and now we are not sure if we should be really disgusted or not - what the hell is wrong with us!

Death Takes A Holiday

It's back, it's back! Next thursday....ooohhoooo! We are jumping up and down with excitement and yes, we may look a bit silly doing that at our age, but WHO CARES!!!?? It's back, it's back just so Death can take a holiday!

#1

#2



#3 ...hey isn't that the Death Chick from the hospital???



#4

... a shame it isn't the kind of DEATH that talks only in capital letters ;p

I USHERED SOULS INTO THE NEXT WORLD. I WAS THE GRAVE OF ALL HOPE. I WAS THE ULTIMATE REALITY. I WAS THE ASSASSIN AGAINST WHOM NO LOCK WOULD HOLD. - “Yes, point taken, but do you have any particular skills?” — Death consults a job broker - (Terry Pratchett, Mort)

It is a fact that although the Death of the Discworld is, in his own words, an ANTHROPOMORPHIC PERSONIFICATION, he long ago gave up using the traditional skeletal horses, because of the bother of having to stop all the time to wire bits back on. — (Terry Pratchett, Mort)

HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN, TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLEN ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE - (Death in The Hogfather)

SPN'ised, dude!

Yeah, dude, the Soupdragon totally got, like, Supernaturalised. And just 3 weeks, 1 day and 16 hours before she gets to the SPN Los Angeles Convention (can you say: ‘way too excited!’ yet?)


So if you happen to be in LA around the end of March and see a European English bird that fits this description (and answers to ‘TozaBoma’), shake my hand and we’ll buy each other several pints/beers/Purple Nurples.

Yeeeeeeeee-haaaaaaaaaaaaa!
