Blood and gore.......aargh!

About Me


BEWARE YOUR SOCKS
Whether you know it or not you are a target. I would put my life on it that you have already been a victim…….many times over!!! Just think back; how many odd socks do you possess? Where do you suppose they have gone? Your mistake, like mine for many years, is to assume they are wedged under the bed or lurking under the wardrobe to be found at a later date.
In truth they have been stolen and whisked away to the land of the Doldrums. The architects of these crimes lurk where your back is turned, creep where you are not looking and frequently make the journey into your homes, into your bedrooms and to where you sleep to complete their endeavours.
I have come to call them SOCK HORRORS as they are evolved from socks, of that I am sure, but they ARE truly horrific.
Up until now, I have shared my findings with very few. However, I do have a small band of loyal acolytes, all of whom assist in the hunt and capture of further specimens.
My closest companion in this quest is Professor I. Doodlemonkie – a specialist in lore and fable, who is now my official diarist and scribe. I teased this hermit out of his early retirement by simply presenting him with my findings to date; then, he was instantly converted to the cause, working furiously (and from that initial day forward, mostly barefoot) to distil our discoveries into one tome.
Together, we have made a pact to discover everything about these fascinating – but very deadly – creatures, and present our case to the world.

My Interests

DOLDRITES

Sock Horrors fall into several castes, and over time we will bring you more information as it is discovered. They are from a land called the Doldrums and only certain factions enter our lands
GORE

A Gore is a very sad Doldrite indeed, perhaps the saddest of all. For, after countless experiences (perhaps at the hands of humans, or after a wormhole encounter), they never get over their predicament, and find one last way of making a statement – some creative way of ending it all, and throwing it in, of reaching the summit of experience – the great Sock Off.
ICONS

Nobody in the Doldrums really knows what creates the Icons with the most humanlike traits though there are a number of theories, including the sockasack theory, or the Sockophile influence.
