Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.

i'm a grown man but i'll take the witch or wife job

The bookstore isn't really haunted or cursed. There's just a dice maker living in the chimney space and all the businesses that used to operate there just weren't good at what they did and went belly-up.

What is that from? It's in the back of my mind

Disco Elysium. Brilliant game.

I would dare say it is the best written video game of all time.

I would dare say you are right

I'll come haunt that bookshop for a nominal fee :D

In the 1700s Europe, rich folks would hire Garden Hermits. So your proposal has some precedent.

“Ghost wanted for full time haunting. Chains provided. NO POLTERGEISTS.”

100% deep woods druid 😏

Can I be the rich wife’s vampire? She can be poor but I really want to be her hot vampire wife.

I'd love to be a forest witch but the public transport may have less options.

Haunted bookshop sounds good too, but that might involve dealing with customers and I'm not suited for that.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not many customers needed, if the bookshop is just a money laundering scheme of the ghost who haunts it.

Aziraphale?

Oh, that's hard. Haunted Bookshop owner I think. Get to read books all the time, and talk with people from different times and places. Bring spirits comfort, share stories, etc. I'd want a book club as well, for the spirits and the living. And it would be like a little hole in the wall, a blink and you'll miss it kind of door but inside it'll be lovely.

I'd want it to attract people in trouble. Running from someone or something, you'll find yourself at my shop, with the perfect book. Maybe even get advice from someone who's been in your shoes before.

If I wasn't stupidly allergic I would live day and night in a room full of books, may it be the library, the book store or a garage filled with em.

I'm like a book-moth (eurk actually, I hate moths), a book vampire where the books are in sunlight.

Haunted GameStop.
