The binding methods would become extremely creepy in the 19th century, when some books were bound in human skin. We’ve seen the “Evil Dead” franchise, and we KNOW not to mess with books bound in human skin. The fine folks at the Harvard Library however, chose to go against that notion. On March 27th, the Harvard Library chose to remove the human skin binding from a 19th century book. The book, “Des Destinées de l’Ame” by Arsène Houssaye,” has been in the…

When it comes to anything involving zombies in this day and age, there are certain expectations of horror and gore. At least, if you want whatever zombie show or movie to be considered good.

The highly anticipated “Marvel Zombies” will not be…
