Originally from Stoke-on-Trent & now living in Sheffield, I'm a qualified counsellor/therapist with a penchant for anything pleasing to the eye.
Including horror, the human condition in all of its forms, architecture; mainly brutalist or modernist, moggies, landscapes, shadow play photography, nudes, the 1960s, abandoned places, make up, & anything psychological/therapy/counselling related.
These are mostly what you'll find here.

The Island Of The Dolls (Isla de las Muñecas), located in the vast network of canals that lies to the south of Mexico City, near Xochimilco is one of the creepiest tourist attraction in Mexico. Here, among the branches and dead trees hang hundreds of old, mutilated dolls.
The story goes that some half a century ago a little girl drowned off a small island hidden deep amongst the canals of Xochimico. The island’s only permanent inhabitant was a hermit named Don Julián Santana Barrera, who despite having a wife and family, chose to live alone on the island. Soon after the girl’s death Barrera fished out one doll after another from the canals. Convinced that this was a sign from the evil spirit, Don Julian Santana began hanging them on trees to protect himself from evil and calm the spirit of the dead girl. Soon Don Julián had made the entire island into a shrine.
Don Julian Santana lived on the island for 50 years before his death in 2001. He was found drowned in the same area in which he believed the little girl had died.
