Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched the first three episodes of “12 Dates of Christmas,” streaming now on HBO Max.
In 1965, Maria von Trapp (Julie Andrews) stepped into Schloss Leopoldskron in Salzburg, Austria and fell in love in “The Sound of Music.” Now, 55 years later, two new men and one woman hope to do the same in HBO Max’s “12 Dates of Christmas.”
The new reality competition series — which yes, really does film at that same estate in Austria — follows three single “leads” as they meet potential new relationships and go on the titular 12 dates, all with the goal of finding someone they want to bring home to their families during the holiday season.
The show doesn’t stop once that decision has been made, though: Instead, the first season will follow them back to their family’s home to see what a relationship...

Dark Arts Books is unveilling the first e-book editions of two of the finest, funniest, feral books of fiction you will ever fall upon: Martin Mundt’s The Crawling Abattoir and The Dark Underbelly Of Hymns!
Anyone who’s been a Dark Arts Books fan knows that Martin Mundt’s “A Perfect Plan” opened their very first collection back in 2006 — Candy in the Dumpster. So we’re pretty excited that they now have the rights to not one, but three of his short story collections.
Originally released as a chapbook in 1999 by Twilight Tales in Chicago, The Crawling Abattoir was expanded and reissued in 2004 with additional stories and a new cover by the incomparable Chad Savage. Four years later, Delirium Books issued Mundt’s 2nd collection, The Dark Underbelly Of Hymns, in a limited 100-copy hardcover edition (and also featuring a Chad Savage cover!). Both books have inexplicably been out of print for several years…...
