so i'm listening to 1960s novelty Halloween songs again (a thing i highly recommend doing in October btw) and i think it would be funny if there was a story where a singer in a silly 1960s monster-themed novelty band meets like an actual vampire or werewolf or something, who is at first insulted by the whole concept, then reluctantly amused when all of the songs turn out to be about how everybody wants to date a monster. like, not in an objectifying way, just very early 1960s vibes "gosh, witches are neat!" or whatever
i probably won't write it but i say this now because part of me thinks this has to already exist. there are so many monster-adjacent fandoms out there. anyway, i guess hook me up if you know of one because i really think it could be a gas.

Random Concept: Terry Silver with a TikTok-obsessed Beloved
It would be cute if beloved wanted to film cute couple moments with Terry.
Spicier with Terry during the Halloween season because of all the Ghostface masks trending.
I can imagine Gen Z beloved doing something like the Gothic Baby account if they have a kids with Terry.
Like, I do think Terry Silver, in his old age majorly keeps up with trends.
He always has.
He always had his finger on the pulse of the 'brand new thing'.
More so than young people, undoubtedly --- he's a businessman, after all.
He's too clever not to keep up. That's how he can blend in so perfectly and adapt if need be, being chameleonic in nature, changing and transforming with the times. It's how he can manipulate perceptions and cultural norms --- by being in touch with things around him, sure, like the advent of social media. The Online sphere. Being Vegan for a while, because that's a la mode and acceptable in a more Liberal, upper crust crowd in Los Angeles --- it's admirable, even. A societal badge that says one's a conscientious, good person (And Terry Silver's just that? Right?) when that wouldn't have been the case in the past. Thirty years ago it was perhaps the discourse between nuclear and fossil fuels or green new energy that mattered, and today, it's all about Tik Tok. It's Twitter. Or X, rather. And what's trending on there --- the type of stuff that can make or break one's reputation because someone said something stupid or cancel-worthy two decades ago. Heck, even the branding of social media itself changes, having one name and taking on another practically overnight! The world moves fast and Terry Silver moves with it. But, in spite of him been keenly aware what's what and what it means, I envision his Online presence is incredibly scarce and unbelievably curated on purpose and what information can be found on him on the Internet has been fine combed and is continuously fine combed so really, not only can you not find anything too controversial about him on there (maybe just the right amount of controversial, tactically speaking; acceptable controversies, as to not make him seem too inhumanly saintly and by extension, unrealistic, too suspicious and fake) --- you can't even really find anything much of anything in general except what Terry deliberately and specifically wants on there. Man's incredibly private all while putting up a facade that he's an open book --- which, don't be fooled, he's anything but.
What I mean to say with this is that Terry Silver undoubtedly wouldn't be on Twitter, for example, posting his actual, real opinions about...anything. He's smart like that.
So, any beloved of his? Gen Z or otherwise?
Chances are, they wouldn't be chronically Online either.
They wouldn't be on Tik Tok, plastering videos of themselves, their family or Terry Silver himself for the world to see consistently, because the thought of thousands of people (Voyeurs, the way an already voyeuristic Terry would see it) tuning in to see and watch his beloved --- random punks commenting on them, expressing their opinions willy-nilly, judge, complementing them, leering, passing, bookmarking, downloading and sharing said clips around unstoppably, without any monitoring as to how they could use and abuse such material...legitimately forever --- well, it presses the button of someone fiercely territorial, jealous, possessive, protective and control oriented like Terry. He doesn't like it. He doesn't allow it. He thinks it's bullshit. He would take advantage of someone's else's uploads Online for sure, if push ever came to shove, so maybe it is a bit of projection on his behalf, that somehow, someone, somewhere, would do the same to him and someone who belongs to him to weaken him or retaliate against him, so to take precaution against it, beloved's presence Online becomes, possibly, even scarcer than his, because they're the most precious thing he has and when something or someone's precious or valuable, they're tucked away. Hidden, in ways. Plus side to this, though --- I can envision Terry Silver, like a man who was young in the 70's and 80's being big on home videos instead. Private collections for his private viewing pleasure and usage only. Cute couple moments galore are permissible --- everything is permissible, in fact --- but these recordings, lets call them, belong and remain explicitly in Terry Silver's private care, because he's a man who doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve and tends to strategically tuck away everything that ever mattered to him. Everything that makes him vulnerable. Everything that can compromise or damage him. Most of everything he really is from the public. Includes beloved. Whatever children he might or might not have with them.
If someone was somehow skillful enough to discover their names and Google them, chances are, nothing specific comes up in their search results. Not anywhere.
That's deliberate.

song search
So, I heard a song recently on Walmart radio and it's a fairly familiar song? I've heard it before, probably around Halloween. It's a love song, but with spooky lyrics/images? But, I can not for the life of me remember any specific lyrics.
I just remember it has an upbeat tempo and one of the lines is something like we or you used to something something, now we or you are living in a....
I think it's living in a haunted house, but none of my google searches have helped. LOL It is not the song by McKennah Grace. I thought maybe the singer was Billie Eilish or Lady Gaga, but none of their songs have fit, so far.
Does this sound at all familiar to anyone? Please?
