Salad Hands
A while ago I stumbled across this series of animations by David Firth entitled "Salad Fingers", which is both disturbing and surreal and thought it contained some elements that might appeal to some Ligottians. I'm not sure whether they contain enough elements to be called Ligottian though. You will have to judge upon this yourselves!

Re: Salad Hands
Thank you, Slawek. Someone (I forget who) introduced Salad Fingers to the Ligottian menu a while back. Unfortunately, a dial-up connection makes viewing these gems a seemingly interminable process in my case. But I've bitten at the lettuce, and enjoy these best with Italian dressing. Burp! Pardon me.

Tibet: Carnivals?
Ligotti: Ceremonies for initiating children into the cult of the sinister.
Tibet: Gas stations?
Ligotti: Nothing to say about gas stations as such, although I've always responded to the smell of gasoline as if it were a kind of perfume.
