Awwwh can we have a blurb for the secret santa fic where Charles gets reader? I was hoping he'd get her one of the years because of the crushhh 🥺
Hello Anon! I was actually think of doing a part 2 of future years… so 2024-2026? If you guys don’t like this idea though I can for sure do just a blurb!
Also for anyone wondering, there’s lots coming up!
We’ve got Part 2 of Max Vertsappen x Norris! Reader x Charles Leclerc
We’ve got Part 3 of my “Ghost” Oscar Piastri series
We’ve got Part 5 of my “Better than me” Charles Leclerc series
We’ve got Part 3 of my “The Rookie Prodigy” Carlos Sainz series
We’ve got Part 3/4 of my “I can’t do this anymore” George Russell series
And lots more individual one shots! And more series that I’m thinking about!
Do you guys like Au?
Or do you prefer when reader is like a driver, actress etc?
Or even when they are just the average joe?
Let me know your thoughts below! But I’m travelling back from my parents home to my house, rn so the wiring juices are flowing so you guys should get something good!

I just watched House of Wax, the 2005 film and while it was pretty enjoyable the reason i bring this up here is because i noticed its based on a short story.
"The Wax Works" by Charles S. Belden from 1932 was the basis for the film Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933) as well as House of Wax (1953), Mill of the Stone Women (1960), Chamber of Horrors (1966) and of course House of Wax (2005)
Charles S. Belden died in 1954 so his short story becomes public domain as follows
In Europe and other Life+70 years countries: 2025
In New Zealand and other Life + 50 years countries: Already public domain since 2005
In the United States: 2028
Just thought that was neat, we getting close to it lapsing in copyright in most of the world.

Dread by the Decade: Mystery of the Wax Museum
👻 You can support or commission me on Ko-Fi! ❤️
Tumblr media
Source Material: "The Wax Works" by Charles S. Belden Year: 1933 Genre: Psychological Horror, Mystery Rating: UR (Recommended: PG-13) Country: USA Language: English Runtime: 1 hour 17 minutes
Tumblr media
Director: Michael Curtiz Cinematographer: Ray Rennahan Editor: George Amy Composer: Cliff Hess Writers: Don Mullally, Carl Erickson Cast: Glenda Farrell, Lionel Atwill, Fay Wray, Frank McHugh
Tumblr media
Plot: Just before a wax museum opens, corpses begin disappearing from the local morgue.
Review: Snappy dialogue and striking visuals aren't enough to pull together a film that can't decide if it's a comedic noire or tense horror.
Overall Rating: 2/5
Tumblr media
Story: 1.5/5 - You can guess the twist without even watching it and its disturbing central concept is only superficially explored. Too much time is spent on dialogue that is not as clever as it wants to be.
Performances: 2.5/5 - Atwell is an unmemorable bad guy, Wray is a generic damsel, and Farrell is sometimes trying too hard to be brash. There's also awkward fight scenes where the actors wrestle silently.
Tumblr media
Cinematography: 4/5 - Great use of technicolor and fluid camera movements.
Editing: 2.5/5 - Overly abrupt cuts.
Effects: 4/5 - Wonderful use of pyrotechnics and some fun mad scientist tools.
Sets: 4/5 - The wax museums (there are actually two) are the highlights, though they're underutilized.
Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 2/5 - The burn prosthetics are a bit weak, even for the time.
youtube
Trigger Warnings:
Mild violence
Mild body horror
Ableist depiction of a deaf character
Misogyny (uncritically perpetuated)
Brief racism

Fay Wray and Glenda Farrell in Mystery of the Wax Museum (Michael Curtiz, 1933)
Cast: Lionel Atwill, Fay Wray, Glenda Farrell, Frank McHugh, Allen Vincent, Gavin Gordon, Edwin Maxwell, Holmes Herbert, Claude King, Arthur Edmund Carewe, Thomas E. Jackson, DeWitt Jennings, Matthew Betz, Monica Bannister. Screenplay: Don Mullaly, Carl Ericson, Charles Belden. Cinematography: Ray Rennahan. Art direction: Anton Grot. Film editing: George Amy. 
The ever-imperiled Fay Wray gets higher billing, but the real star of Mystery of the Wax Museum is Glenda Farrell, playing an intrepid (what else?), tough-talking (ditto) newspaper reporter, Florence Dempsey. Flo's boss, Jim (Frank McHugh), gives her her walking papers, so she sets out to find a sensational story to save her job. She uncovers the sinister plot of Ivan Igor (Lionel Atwill), who is opening a new wax museum in New York. Igor had a similar museum in London, but it was losing money, so his partner in the business, Joe Worth (Edwin Maxwell), burned it down to collect the insurance. Igor was trapped in the conflagration but survived. Handicapped by his wounds, he trains new sculptors to re-create the glories of the old museum. One of the trainees is Ralph Burton (Allen Vincent), whose fiancée, Charlotte Duncan (Wray), turns out to be the spitting image of Igor's most prized sculpture in the old museum, an effigy of Marie Antoinette. Naturally, Igor plans to "sculpt" Charlotte into a new Marie: His method of capturing images is, let's say, not the traditional one. By a bit of breaking and entering, Flo manages to discover the macabre truth behind the wax museum's images. The plot gimmick -- a reporter uncovers a madman's schemes -- is exactly that of Doctor X (1932), Michael Curtiz's other venture into horror movie territory filmed in two-strip Technicolor, which also starred Atwill and Wray. Mystery of the Wax Museum is the better movie, with Farrell giving a better performance as the snoopy reporter than Lee Tracy in the earlier movie. It also has a neater plot, and a real creep factor in the spooky statues -- most of which are actors standing very still. Makeup artists Ray Romero and Perc Westmore and costume designer Orry-Kelly deserve special mention.

Tim Burton Wanted To Make House Of Wax Remake With Michael Jackson
Tim Burton Wanted To Make House Of Wax Remake With Michael Jackson
With a variety of other projects having never come to fruition, Tim Burton reveals he wanted to make a House of Wax musical remake with Michael Jackson starring. The string of eponymous horror movies stems from Charles S. Belden’s unpublished short story “The Wax Works,” revolving around a wax museum run by a mysterious sculptor and harboring a dark secret. The story was first brought to the big…

House of Wax (1953)
"Everything I ever loved has been taken away from me - but not you, my Marie Antoinette, for I will give you eternal life!"

Purge Time
Hey guy's so I'm feeling it's time to clean up my account a little bit. A lot of my stories have atrocious SPAG errors and my F1 masterlist is getting kind of long.
So I'm here to ask do you like the length of the current F1 Masterlist where you can see everything I've written out in the open, or would you like separate Masterlist's for the people I tend to write for more, such as Lando, Max, Charles, Carlos, Oscar etc.
Let me know!
Love you always <3

I think of St. Gudula, a young woman of prayer in eighth-century Brabant. She loved poplars, praying with them often. On the cold January day after she was buried, the people of the village of Hamme swore that a poplar tree at the foot of her grave suddenly burst into green leaf. It needed to sing, grieving for itself while also celebrating her passage into the church triumphant. It think I understand, having loved a poplar tree of my own.
I guess that's why I make this request. Open the kingdom for a cottonwood tree. Let the green creation sing at the banquet. Love alone demands it. Charles Péguy once told a story about God's welcoming faithful Christians into heaven. But on meeting them at the gate, God looked over their shoulder, anxiously asking, "Where are the others? You didn't leave them behind, did you?" The measure of the authenticity of the communion of Christ is the measurelessness of its power to include. For Christians, loving the natural world isn't any longer a matter of choice. It's required by the community in which they live.
