Have Yourself a Bloody Little New Year!
Happy New Year and Welcome 2023! I don't want you all to get the wrong impression from the title. I of course want you to have a happy, healthy, and safe 2003 BUT I also want you to check out the latest Mind of Smoothie Podcast!
In this FIRST episode of 2023 we take a look at the 1987 Horror Film Bloody New Year.
There are a handful of New Year associated horror movies to choose from, but I passed Bloody New Year up last year for New Year's Evil from 1980. I thought that 2023 was the year to give this film it's just due.
Like the last episode I have an audio and video version posted below so go ahead and pick your poison. After you are done listening and watching let me know what you think of Bloody New Year!

The Bloody-Handed and the anguish of loving them - Chapter One.
Tumblr media
Summary: Almost a year has passed since Eddie Munson died and it feels like the only person that isn't moving on is Steve.
After spending the night studying a Dungeons and Dragons handbook, Steve is convinced he's figured out how to bring Eddie back. Not only that, but defeat Vecna once and for all too. Now he just has to prove it.
Pairings: Steve Harrington x Vampire Eddie Munson
Masterlist: Here.
Chapter: 1 of 10.
Chapter WC: 2165.
CW: Drinking, depressive episode, PTSD.
A/N: Welcome to the ramblings of a girl who plays too much Baldur's Gate, has Steddie brain rot, and lives in constant delusion that Eddie is coming back for season five.
I hope you enjoy.
This story can also be found on AO3 here.
Tumblr media
March 7th, 1987.
Steve Harrington was, without a doubt, an absolute mess.
Long gone were the High School glory days filled with basketball games, parties, and echoed chants of “King Steve!” blaring down the hallways. Long gone were the days of trying to pick up girls at Scoops and Family Video with Robin’s so-called ‘guidance’. Long gone were the days he would spend ‘babysitting’ the six youngest of his odd group of friends, secretly loving every minute despite how much he would complain at the time. All that remained now was the husk of the man he once was.
On March 27th of the previous year, Steve’s life had changed monumentally. With the help of his friends, he had tried and failed to kill Vecna, resulting in the destruction of the town where they had all grown up. The worst part was that nobody else except for that small group of people knew the horrid truth.
The news had claimed that it was a 7.4 magnitude earthquake that destroyed the town of Hawkins. Reporters and camera crews plagued the town with their presence for the first few weeks - reeling on the devastation of the town for the sake of a story, whilst the residents quietly grieved their losses and began to rebuild the town.
Two weeks after the ‘earthquake’ Steve’s nightmares returned; unfortunately, he was no stranger to the symptoms that came with post-traumatic stress disorder. The last time he was showing symptoms Robin had quickly intervened before he could spiral too far down the rabbit hole. She had gone through everything with him - the capture, the drugging, and the torture. This time was different. This time he was grieving too.
With a half-empty litre bottle of vodka clutched in one hand and Eddie’s denim vest in the other, Steve let his tears fall freely. All he ever seemed to do these days was cry. He’d wake up, cry, vomit, cry some more, start drinking, cry again, get too drunk to cry, get angry, and eventually pass out. Losing his job just one month after the building had reopened did not help with his slippery slope of a coping mechanism.
It had been three months since he’d last seen Robin and any of his other friends. Looking back, Steve wasn’t surprised. Hangovers make him very short tempered and as of late, he’s an angry drunk. Opting for the English tradition “hair of the dog” as his preferred hangover cure essentially made him a 24/7 ticking time bomb. Jonathan pouring away his last bottle of whiskey at the latest ‘intervention’ that Nancy and Robin had orchestrated was the trigger. He cussed them all out for a solid five minutes in a blind rage, begging them to just leave him the fuck alone, before throwing them all out of his house, the empty bottle following shortly behind.
Pushing people away and losing his friends hurt, of course it did, but nothing hurt more than losing him.
One short week of really knowing Eddie Munson was all it had taken for Steve to fall head over heels in love with him - not that he realised it at the time. Hell, he hadn’t even realised he liked guys at that point. Not that it mattered any more, of course, because Eddie was dead. Dead because Steve hadn’t gotten to Vecna in time. Dead because Steve hadn’t kept his promise. Dead because of him.
Steve quickly chased his thoughts with another large mouthful of vodka, praying that he would soon be at the ‘too drunk to cry’ stage.
“Look at you, you’re a fucking wreck,” he spat at his reflection. He wasn’t wrong. Steve’s hair hadn’t seen a can of Farrah Fawcett hairspray in months, or a pair of scissors. His once infamous locks were now hanging limply down to his chest, knotted and frail. Swapping barbells for bottles had caused his six pack to fade away over the months, and the bags under his eyes were rivalling Hopper’s this time last year.
“This is all your fault. It’s all your fucking fault,” he cried, his forehead pressed against the glass. His grip tightened around the bottle neck, his knuckles turning white. “You didn’t keep your promise. He’s dead and it’s-”
“Steve?” Robin asked cautiously from the doorway.
“Robin?” exclaimed Steve, spinning around whilst wiping the tears from his face. “W- what are you doing here? How the hell did you get in?”
“You left the door unlocked. Look, Steve-” she began.
“If Nancy put you up to this again, you can leave now.”
“She didn’t. It’s just me, no hidden surprises in the living room this time. Please, Steve, just hear me out.”
March 8th, 1987.
Steve opened his eyes cautiously, the light blaring through the opened curtains stinging whilst they adjusted.
“Morning,” Robin greeted upon entering the room. Steve groaned and rolled over, covering his face with the pillow in an attempt to shield himself from the morning sun. “Steve, get up.”
“Would you please, for the love of god, speak a bit more quietly. My head is throbbing.”
“Get a shower before you come down for breakfast, we’re going to the barbers.”
Steve only emerged from under his pillow once he had heard the door close behind Robin. He sat up slowly, not wanting to aggravate his already swirling stomach, and reached for the bottle of vodka he’d left on the night stand. It was gone. He dragged himself to the other side of the room to get his back up bottle from the dresser. That was gone too. Robin had wasted no time in clearing out his stash while he was passed out.
It was going to be a long day.
March 14th, 1987.
On Wednesday night Steve attended what Nancy had claimed was definitely just a “small gathering for everyone to catch up”.
After two and a half hours of listening to all of his friends, along with Joyce and Hopper, take it in turns to say how much they missed him and how worried about him they were, Steve agreed to cut back heavily on his drinking, see a therapist, and start seeing his friends more often. That was how he found himself, rather begrudgingly, wedged between Jonathan and Robin on the three-seater sofa in Mike Wheeler’s basement on a Saturday night.
“No Vickie tonight then?” asked Jonathan.
“Depends what time she gets off work. Saturdays are still super busy, the novelty of going out again hasn’t worn off yet for some people,” Robin answered.
“Can’t blame them really though, can you? I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since it happened.”
“I can. We’ve been practising our song for the memorial three times a week for the last two months, I haven’t been able to forget about it,” Robin replied, rolling her eyes.
“Really?”
“The whole of Hawkins is going to be there, team, we must get this right,” Robin replied with a shockingly accurate impression of Mrs Baird, the Hawkins High music teacher
“Nance is pretty swamped too trying to get all the pages sorted for the memorial book. I’m helping where I can with the photos but she’s still pretty stressed,” Jonathan admitted.
“I think it’s hitting everyone a little bit. It’s like you can feel the tension in the air.”
“At least the kids seem okay,” he smiled, gesturing to the game occurring in the middle of the room.
“What say you, Will the Wise?” asked Mike, his Dungeon Master voice earning a small chuckle from El.
“Fireball!” roared Will.
“I didn’t think you liked D&D?” Jonathan asked, nudging Steve in the ribs with his elbow.
“What?” Steve blinked, realising he’d been staring at Mike’s Hellfire t-shirt a little too long.
“I said ‘I didn’t think you liked D&D?’ You’ve been watching them play for the last twenty minutes without saying a word,”
“Oh, right. Um, well, I thought perhaps I should give it a go,” Steve lied quickly. “You all said about getting a new hobby. Just trying to get the basics.”
“That’s a great idea,” encouraged Nancy, rejoining the group. She handed Jonathan a beer before offering Steve and Robin bottles of water with a sympathetic smile.
“Thanks,” Steve muttered.
“What character are you thinking of playing as then?” asked Jonathan.
“Uh… I don’t know. What is there?” Steve asked.
“You don’t have a clue what’s going on, do you?”
“No,” Steve admitted.
“Hey, guys, can Steve borrow one of your handbooks?” Jonathan called out.
“Really?!” beamed Dustin. “You’re finally going to play?!”
“Really.”
March 22nd, 1987.
Unable to keep up the facade when left to his own devices, Steve decided that drinking himself to sleep only when he really needed to wasn’t too much of a betrayal to his friends. Plus, what they didn’t know couldn’t hurt them. With the anniversary of Eddie’s death around the corner, sleeping through the night had started to become harder and harder.
“Oh God, Eddie,” Dustin sobbed.
“Bad, huh?
“No, no, we just gotta get you to a hospital, okay?”
“Okay.”
“Alright, come on,”
“I think… I think I just need a second, okay?”
“Okay.”
“…I didn’t run away this time, right?”
“No, no, you didn’t run.”
“Make sure you keep saving those… those lost little sheep for me… yeah?”
“No. You can save them yourself.”
“Nah, man. Say ‘I’m gonna look after them.’”
“I’m gonna look after them.”
“Good, ‘cause I’m actually gonna graduate. I think it’s my year, Henderson. I think it’s… finally my year…”
“Mhmm.”
“I love you, man.”
“I love you too… Eddie? Eddie?! No, no, no, Eddie! Eddie?!”
Dustin’s screams of anguish for his deceased friend filled Steve’s head to the point where it was almost painful. He wished he’d never asked Dustin what they spoke about towards the end, as though not knowing would have made it any less painful. Perhaps it would have? He downed another mouthful of vodka, his throat burning.
“It’s not fair,” he thought, “not fair he didn’t graduate, not fair he didn’t get to have his big break, not fair he didn’t get to really live, not fair that he died and I-”.
He took yet another shot of vodka rather than finish the thought.
-
Three hours later, still very much awake and very much drunk, Steve fell onto his bed. His eyes locked with the book he had borrowed from Will Byers over a week ago but had yet to touch.
“Dungeons and Dragons: A Player’s Guide,” he read to himself. Was this the same handbook Eddie had started out with?
The contents of the book made very little sense to Steve, who had no idea what a bard or barbarian was. He flicked through the pages, eyes scanning the pages but not really retaining any of the information.
‘Character types include: Dwarves, Elves, Half-Elves, Gnomes, Humans, Halflings, Tieflings, and Orcs.’
‘Classes: Cleric, Barbarian, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, and Wizard.’
‘Known Enemies: Demogorgons, Gollems, Kas the Bloody Handed, Lich, Mind Flayer, Trolls, Vampires, and Vecna.’
His eyes clung to the familiar words before him. Demogorgons. Mind Flayer. Vecna. It was one thing to speak freely about all the creatures he’d faced amongst his friends but seeing it written before him, in an actual book, made everything suddenly feel more real to Steve.
He knew the kids had named everything and everyone they’d fought after characters from their games, they told him the first time he had to ask what a Demogorgon was. What he didn’t know was why, although he has a horrible feeling he was about to get the answer to that question too. For the first time since picking it up, he read with as much concentration as he could muster.
‘Demogorgons: A large creature that can walk uprights or on all fours. Identifiable by its elongated limbs and large, star-shaped mouth. Highly dangerous with limited intelligence. Known to obey Vecna.’
‘Mind-Flayer: made up mostly of dark particles and/or any victims it can flay, this enemy can take on any shape it wants, however, it usually takes the shape of a large spider. Highly intelligent, it is known to possess its victims if necessary.’
‘Vecna: Also known as The Arch Lich or Lord of The Rotted Tower. A dark wizard with great power.’
There it was. Angry drunk. Angry at himself, angry at Eddie, angry at Vecna, angry at goddamn everything. He flicked through the pages quickly, hoping something would catch his attention and distract him.
‘Magical items: Horn of Beckoning Death, Staff of Rejuvenation, Sword of Kas, and more.’
Steve flipped through the pages containing pictures of different maps you could play on, one of them being oddly familiar. He flipped the page again.
‘Cantrips, Spells, and Scrolls.’
In an attempt to figure what the hell a cantrip was, Steve leaned back and began to read again. Three pages into the lists and descriptions, Steve’s eyes stopped in their tracks and widened. There it was, his answer.
‘Scroll of revivify.’

Ringo Starr and George Harrison in 1961 (photo © Ringo Starr/National Portrait Gallery), and onstage at the Prince’s Trust Concert on 5 June 1987 (photo by Lynn Hilton/Mail On Sunday/Shutterstock).
Happy birthday, Ringo!
“You’re on holiday with [George] and every morning he’d say, ‘Oh, come and see the trees.’ ‘Okay, yeah.’ And then the next day, ‘Oh, come and see the trees.’ ‘Yeah, okay.’ And then, ‘Come and see…’ ‘I’ve seen your bloody trees!’” - Ringo Starr, Concert for George microsite
“[At a private reception] Starr was perusing the lyrics to one of the previously unpublished songs included in the new volume [I Me Mine - The Extended Edition], one that name-checked him, ‘Hey Ringo.’ After smiling at a rhyme about ‘my guitar sounds so bare/when your drums aren’t there,’ the 75-year-old drummer became choked with emotion by the next line: ‘Hey Ringo, there’s one thing that I’ve not said/I’ll play guitar with you till I drop dead.’ ‘I’m sorry,’ he said, his eyes misting and turning back toward his wife, actress Barbara Bach.” - Los Angeles Times, 24 February 2017
"I loved George, George loved me." - Ringo Starr, Concert for George, 29 November 2002
"This next song is called It Don't Come Easy. I wrote this song with the one and only George Harrison." - Ringo Starr, VH1 Storytellers, 1998
"So George taught me C, which was so damn hard. That’s how ['Photograph'] started. I love the sentiment of Photograph. When we did The Concert For George, I told the audience that Photograph now has a different meaning just because of the fact that George has left." - Ringo Starr, liner notes, Photograph: The Very Best of Ringo Starr
"['Never Without You'] is all about George. The song is still very poignant for me, and I tried not to do it on the last tour, but I had to do it because it’s a beautiful song and expresses what I felt for the man. […] He had just gone and I wanted to express my love for him." - ibid
“Ringo’s got the best back beat I’ve ever heard.” - George Harrison, press conference, October 1974
"George presented him recently with a special, leather-bound volume, which said on the cover, ‘Ringo Starr: greatest drummer on earth.’ Inside, all the pages were blank. ‘George told me to start writing, to fill it up.’" - The Beatles: The Authorized Biography, 1985 postscript
“I remember years ago Ringo saying to me he’d love to have a Number 1. And I said, What for? You are the Number 1. It doesn’t matter about the record.” - George Harrison, Q, 1988 (x)

Semi-Canon Timeline of the Danger Days Universe
(it’s not completely canon, cuz I made a lot of things up for my new fic and ppl have different opinions to me. Also, danger days canon is like, impossible to make sense of)
1973 - The idea of Better Living Industries is proposed and Mom and Dad, it doesn't go very far, however, Marquez persists, gaining support until the Helium Wars 
1978 - The First Helium War starts, leading to the destruction and death of several millions. This war goes on for several years
1983 - after 5 long years, the First Helium War ends, the plans for Better Living Industries are put aside, and the company is founded to produce ammunition and weapons for the next war; early Industry workers see profit. 
1987 - The next couple of years lead to more bloodshed and death, during the Second Helium War. Bombs are dropped, leaving Europe and Asia in near-complete ruin. Some historians debate against whether there were several wars instead of just two, due to long periods of peace through the years.
1989 - Mom and Dad rise in the US, becoming the main governmental entities, promoting peace.
1990 - The Helium Wars are officially over. Better Living Industries provide relief for victims of war, creating a name for themselves, after profit increase from weapon manufacturing (something which is covered up quickly). The original Battery City is based in San Francisco, one of the few American States left completely standing. However, Battery City remains mostly unpopular, due to standards and the fear of new technology (first versions of droids, headphones, etc, etc.). People don't believe the promises made by the city. 
1998 - The Analogue Wars begin. These wars are less bloody and severe, dubbed the Clean Wars, however, Australia is sunk and the rest of the world is ruined. Several people band together to create crews and gangs (The A.K.A.s), like Los Angeles-based Mike Milligram and The Original Fabulous Killjoys + Dennis and the Books on Tape during the Wars, and fight for a chance of freedom. The Zones are introduced after the Wars. 
2003 - Battery City finally grows into the modern city populous that it is. Pills are introduced and further developed. Mom and Dad are corrupted by the Books on Tape. 
2004 - Mike Milligram (personally affected by Mom and Dad as a child) combats the corruptification of mom and dad + this new version of Battery City in Los Angeles.
2005 - Mike Milligram is finally successful in destroying Mom and Dad, and bringing the downfall of Battery City, however, this is not the end.
2008 - the next couple of years are spent covering up the mess Mike Milligram left behind - he and his allies are 'terminated'; they do not get to grow old. A new science is invented for the pill, citizens grow artificial and 'ideal'. 
2010 - The Director is introduced into the city - she will become a leader of the Industry. She successfully covers the story about the A.K.A.s, landing her in a much higher position. The world goes on, however, the city is still redeveloping after the major chaos of Mike Milligram. The term 'killjoy' lives on in the desert, for all rebels.
2011 - Rumours of DESTROYA and the Phoenix Witch gain popularity for stray rebels in the Zones and abandoned droids.
2012 - The Great Fires of 2012 take place, causing tragedy for the rest of the known world. The causes of the Fires are still disputed over, though B.L.I seems to have something to do with it. The Industry rises as a 'saviour', promising a better future for civilians, provided they take the pills offered - 'Have a better day' - and follow rules and guidelines. Memories are wiped, headphones are introduced to keep the bad thoughts away, pill dosages are increased for some.
2013 - Ranks are introduced in Battery City - proper Exterminators were introduced to the Zones; citizens of the city are unaware of this military strength, and of the Zones as a whole. The artificial 'slums' of Battery City are created (dubbed 'the Lobby'), to give citizens a false belief of control - modern Droids are introduced as well.
2013 - Jet Star (aged 16) loses her family and crew in a firefight between early Draculoids. These Dracs are not as developed as the modern ones, and tend to malfunction.
2013 - the new Party Poison (aged 17) and the Kobra Kid (aged 15) escape into the Zones and begin to make a name for themselves.
2013 - Fun Ghoul's first crew disappears mysteriously at 16. The cause is unknown.
2014 - Modern Draculoids are introduced, these are much more effective and easy to control; they're more deadly. 
2014 - Korse runs into Party Poison and the Kobra Kid; Poison finds a mortal enemy.
2015 - Jet Star, Party Poison, Fun Ghoul, and the Kobra Kid form the next Fabulous Killjoys (the Fabulous Four) (they are unaware of Mike Milligram and his killjoys). 
2015 - Korse is assigned to the Four
2017 - The Four stumble across the Girl
2019 - The Killjoys 'die' in their 20s trying to save the Girl (aged 8) (this doesn't work with some canon, she might be much younger).
2028 - The Girl manages to destroy Better Living with the help of DESTROYA. Rumours of the Four finally seem to die down. Show Pony disappears after the deaths of the DJs. 
2032 - History repeats itself. The Director may be gone, but her late followers find themselves the catalyst in Better Living's next rise. Mom and Dad are plugged back in by an unsuspecting ex-citizen, who remains unknown. The Girl is forced to flee back into the desert. She disappears again. 
2033 - Dante, aged 35, wakes up. Jet Star is sighted near the previous Nevada
2034 - Party Poison and the Kobra Kid are sighted.

LUCASVERSE: AN INTRODUCTION
Tumblr media
Fifteen years ago, on the night of his cousin's birthday party, Lucas Michaels became a murderer. It's a secret only one other person knows, someone Lucas thought he could trust, someone who was supposed to have his best interests at heart… But when that relationship is burned, Lucas is forced to run and hide in the only place he won't be found: Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where it all began.
Since then, he's been keeping the ugly truth from everyone he cares about: his aunt Mahogany, his co-worker Mike—and the very friends he watched die that day in 1987. After all, what they don't know won't hurt them… right? His new status quo, changed as it is, gets to stay familiar and peaceful… Lucas will take any peace he can get.
But when Jeremy Fitzgerald is hired as the new Night Watch, Lucas's fragile paradise threatens to shatter around him. The teenager has secrets of his own, determined to clear his father's disgraced name and drag out every bloody detail into the light. Desperate to keep his recreation of their Happiest Day, Lucas seeks out help from the mysterious Marionette. All he needs to do is agree to one little deal…
NOTE: This AU is based on the Parlourverse by @fivenightsatfreddysfanfiction and follows most of its major plot beats (up to the end of the FNaF 3 Arc, where Lucasverse concludes). However, not all details, events, or characters will be the same. Some changes are more drastic than others.
[TIMELINE]
[GENERAL LUCAS INFORMATION] (will be updated)
Who is Lucas? What is his personality like?
On the clock, Lucas is the Assistant Manager / Animatronic Technician at Freddy's Pizza, and Mike and Jeremy's boss. Off the clock, Lucas is a weird loner who spends all his free time either hanging out with the old decaying FazBand in Parts/Service, or hovering around Mike (who tolerates it). Generally polite and friendly to all (except Jeremy) with an air of superiority, he seems not to have any hobbies or interests outside of tinkering with animatronics.
Hey, has anyone ever seen him outside Freddy's?
What is Lucas's relationship with Mike and Jeremy?
While Lucas is willing to look the other way when a staff member takes a bit too long on their smoke break, or comes in five minutes too late, everyone agrees that no one gets more share of the favoritism than Mike. Though Mike wouldn't go so far as to call Lucas a friend, exactly, there seems to be an unspoken (if rigid) camaraderie between them; they can share a beer together in silence. They're both in charge of any new security guards, if that adds to it.
On the other end of the scale, Jeremy seems to have drawn Lucas's ire, to a point where it almost seems... personal? Although Lucas keeps a professional demeanor, there are moments where he seems to enjoy making Jeremy's life as inconvenient as possible, from calling him in on weekends or docking his pay for "damages". Does Jeremy's friendship with Mike have something to do with it?
Why does Lucas hate Jeremy?
Sometimes we hate in others what we see in ourselves.
Does Lucas know the fates of the previous night guards? What about the pizzeria / animatronics being haunted?
When a night guard is found to have "disappeared", it's either the owner's or the general manager's duty to inform Corporate. But Lucas tends not to bother Mahogany with troublesome things like that, and—don't tell him, but—Byron's going a little senile nowadays. Anyhow, Lucas is always there at 6AM, him and Mike, so it's no big effort for him to call them in. Mike... never takes it well. Lucas lets him take the day off, if he needs to.
Lucas doesn't consider the animatronics to be haunted, per se, as much as the animatronics are the new bodies/vessels of his dead childhood friends.
And of course he can see ghosts.
He's always been too nosy for his own good.
What was Lucas's life like before he started working at Freddy's?
Lucas grew up in Hurricane, Utah, in a loving family, with his mother Jacqueline, father ██████, and no one else we should be thinking about. Why would you think about that? There's no one else here. No one else worth thinking about. No one else left behind. He has an aunt Mahogany and a cousin Violet. He had an uncle Vincent, but after he died Lucas didn't have any more. Just the one. Only one. No one else.
When Lucas was ten, he ran away from the birthday party. He didn't like being happy. He liked to hide in places where no one would find him. No one found him that day. No one saw what he did, except for one.
When Lucas was ten, his father said they'd move away from Utah to be closer to family. That was a lie. They were running. His family ran across the country, Utah to Arizona, Texas to Missouri, Ohio to Tennessee to Florida. Lucas got good at running, just like he was good at hiding. They stayed a while in Florida, a long while. Nothing important happened to nobody special.
When Lucas was eighteen, he ran away. He came back home.
He's been running ever since.
What did Lucas do in '87?
Who needs to know?
What deal did the Marionette make with Lucas?
Give gifts, give life.
He will put them back together again.
