Black Forest
Book Release and Signing Party
📖 👻 November 4TH | First Friday at Frame of Mind
| |
|
What better way to celebrate the spookiest time of year, then cozying up with a hot cup of coffee and a new horror novel! Frame of Mind is celebrating Missoula author Laramie Dean with a reception and signing of his first published novel, Black Forest.
A story of a young man haunted by the dead, finding himself in a spree of missing young men, and something dangerous lurking his way. Set in a college town in Montana, this book is sure to put you in the Halloween spirit.
| |
Laramie Dean was born and raised on a ranch in northeastern Montana. He is the author of several plays from Theatrefolk, including Frankenstein Among the Dead, Dracula, The Gorgon Sisters, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and Finding Jo March, all of which have been performed by the Hellgate High School drama department where Laramie Dean is employed.
| |
|
Black Forest is the debut novel by Laramie Dean, published by Inkshares. Inspired by the dark labyrinthine narration of Shirley Jackson’s Hangsaman, Black Forest is the story of a young man’s battle with reality as it seemingly dissolves around him, forcing him to fight a series of ever-more frightening supernatural creatures, while one may be closer to him than he thinks.

We are taking it way back with this one, Peter Gabriel's music video
"Sledgehammer" came out in 1986. This legendary music video spent 4 weeks at #1 on the Billboard charts and has an abundance of artistic elements.
| |
“Sledgehammer” is easily one of the most revolutionary and influential music videos of all time. Directed by Stephen R. Johnson and created with the talents of Aardman Animations and the Brothers Quay the song was accompanied by not only stop-motion but pixilation, claymation and more.
So successful is Peter Gabriel’s “Sledgehammer” that the song is still MTV’s most-played music video of all time. An achievement well earned as the week-long shoot had Gabriel working hours on end, filming one frame at a time as he lay beneath a sheet of glass and even receiving electric shocks from a light suit in one of the scenes.
The song's video won a record nine MTV Video Music Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards and Best British Video at the 1987 Brit Awards.
The song also saw Gabriel nominated for three Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance, Record of the Year and Song of the Year
