THE HORROR STARTS HERE

Welcome to Find Familiar’s Realm of Horror, your spiritual home for those who celebrate the darkness. Here you can dive into the feast of the senses that is Macabre Spirits, alongside our fiddle-playing, grave-dancing, night-reveling host, Paganini. Once a joyless man, he’s now the maestro of the macabre, ushering in each limited-edition Macabre Spirits release with a tale from his crypt told by horror’s finest storytellers. 

Special thanks to artist Roxie Zagar for illustrating Paganini’s fateful pact.

Carpe Noctem! It’s time to dance.
