Hello Out There!
How's it going with you in this month of DARKNESS? What are you reading and watching in 2019, WITHOUT ME? Anything noteworthy? I still have two weeks without social media I n...

We're serious, deathlings. Tell us your thoughts. Ask us your questions. Your opinion matters to our dark, desiccated hearts!
Ambitiously,
Caitlin & the Death Video Team
Can we all take a moment to admire the ART Landis created for this video's thumbnail? There's something so perfectly Americana about retro Tupperware and sealed caskets.
This week's v...

Ok, this is not everyone's definition of "living the dream." I get that. Maybe "dying the dream?"

I love when our thumbnails enter surrealist territory. There is no better video than this one (the maybe true, maybe legend) story of the medicinal honey mummy. Corpse honey for whatever ails yo...

I love this kind of episode. It's wonderful to do historically dense tales of death and woe, but it's harder to get weird while doing them. And we all know that I love to get weird.
Someone just posted that I'm losing "faithful subribers" for this "political rant." NOT MY SUBRIBERS!
We've been working on this video for months, and are happy to have it out. It's a ve...
