Afghani kids play in the Kart e Sakhi cemetery
And now, a little something from the Wayback Machine: a 1928 film inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher.

The Truth About the Great Pumpkin
A (very) graphic novel in three chapters.
Linus and Sally wait for the great pumpkin.
Waiting for the Great Pumpkin, by Samuel Beckett
They wait eternally, in vain. Why? I think I know…
