DARK EVENTS:
Rue Morgue Festival of Fear 2013
This horror industry expo will take place August 22-25, 2013 in Toronto, Canada. They're expecting 80,000 guests, so I find it weird that the Facebook page has less than 2k likes! This is an important event! Featured guests include "The Walking Dead's" Norman Reedus and "From Beyond's" Jeffrey Combs.

DARK SHOPS:
Ego Assassin
Ego Assassin is a Toronto-based latex fashion design company. They also create screen prints. The shop sells men's and women's fetish latex clothing, but also bags and purses, cuffs and collars, masks, belts and harnesses, and headwear pieces.
My favorite thing here is this Papillon lace mask.
Gore Couture
This shop sells amazing made-to-measure corsets that are inspired by gore and horror themes. I've seen a lot of corsets in my web wanderings, and these are definitely unique and unusual.
I'm not a corset wearer, but if I picked a favorite, it would be "Dolly Death."
Plastik Army
"Don't look trashy, look deadly!" This Canadian fashion shop is based in Toronto. Genres they specialize in include cyber-industrial, steampunk, gothic and clubwear. They sell men's and women's clothing and PVC gear. There are also some interesting pieces of jewelry here (scissors, gas masks, chainsaws) plus backpacks and purses. (Check out the cool spiky Centipede purse!) Brands they carry include Plastik Wrap, BitchCraft and GHST RDR.
Refuse to Be Usual
This German ebay store sells an amazing selection of punk, Lolita and gothic shoes and boots. They also sell some clothing, face masks, accessories and hair supplies. This store is huge! A great resource for gruftis.

Not very many new links tonight, sorry - my kids are distracting me and my dogs wrestling noisily in the hall, cats meowing to go out, etc. ARGH!
