Blackwood's absurd
and black humorous universe is based on the dark folktales and the classics of
early horror literature, like E.A. Poe and J. S. Le Fanu. The story universe is
centralized around a fictional town called Blackwood. Blackwood resembles the
atmosphere of a 19th century industrial city with its dark alleys, old
cathedrals, eerie cemeteries, filthy sewers and huge factories coughing up
black smoke. Blackwood is the home of many peculiar characters: all these
anthropomorph, half human-half animal fellows have their own horrific, spooky
absurd or terribly strange story. These funny and grotesque tales are the
backbone of Blackwood's universe: the dark and absurd atmosphere of Poe
meets The Busy World of Richard Scarry. Blackwood is not bound by the
laws of reality. Although its stories take place in the beginning of a
fictional material age, anything can happen: a decapitated journalist can carry
on writing her article, one can be easily stabbed in the heart with a freshly
cooked odorous frog leg and one can realize that his or her best friend is a
vampire, who has an intention of eating the particular person for dinner.
