The Blackness Quivering Inside Me

This quotation is a rare and fine expression of genuine fear in Thomas Ligotti's fiction. More often, we encounter expressions of something which might be described as awe or wonder or mystification. And then there are the signature expressions of neutrality either on a mundane or cosmic scale...

The animal fear for one's life. Nothing terribly existential, except for the idea of that thing which is one's life fearing a return to whence it came...

Drat! I wrote 'Darkness' instead of 'Blackness'! Well, the animation is cheesy anyway. I'm not Svankmajer, you see.:confused:
 
For once I agree with the dog. A personal Tenebrae, if there ever was one... I must say that this is without a doubt the most unique response which a Thomas Ligotti quotation has generated. Bravo, Slawek!

It's an honor to provide a response to any of your fantastic Ligotti quotes, GSC! Your contribution to this site is absolutely outstanding.
 
BTW, this was shot in my cellar. It's funny that the places where you live usually look to you so mundane and ordinary and then one day you pass through one of them, see it from a different angle and you have to stop. An unusual trick of light reveals something new to you and you feel compelled to take a picture before the scene becomes familiar once again.
When I now look back at this simple animation it somehow reminds me of Spiderman 3.;)
This certainly wasn't my intention.

Yellowish Haze being saturated with Venom? No way!
Only blackness quivering is welcome!
