December News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

Well, here we are, once again, in the twilight of the year. It’s traditional at this point in the year to ask where it went and marvel at how quickly time passes. But, when you’re thousands of years old, as many of the Lodge’s inhabitants are, this means very little. Centuries are a mere blink of an eye to us. The only slight worry we have with the passage of time is that we still have a library book from 1783, and if they ever decide to hunt us down for the late fees, we’ll have to sell the business to square it off.

November News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

We must begin this month’s journal entry on a dour note (so nothing new there). Halloween has been and gone, so at the time of writing, it’ll be over 360 of your Earth days before we can revel in all things horrible without fear of recrimination. Who’s cutting onions over there?

October News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

The best time of the year is here! Yes, the Spooky Season is finally upon us, and we couldn’t be happier. That’s not strictly true, as we hate being happy, but you know what we mean…

September News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

September is upon us once again, which means that Autumn is officially here, and it’s less than 2 full moon cycles until Halloween. As you can imagine, with the vast majority of the Black Lodge staff either being undead, a creature of the night, not of this planet, or from a different ethereal plane, we look forward to this time of year immensely.

August News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

2025 is chugging along nicely – like an unstoppable possessed train on an express track to hell – and it won’t be long until it’s officially autumn, or Fall if you’re American. (Fall on what? A hidden bear trap? A rotting corpse deep in the woods? We approve of either, to be honest).

July News 2025

Greetings, foul friends!

Now that we’re into the second half of the year, it only seems fitting that we start preparing for Halloween. Forget your spring lambs and flowers in bloom; think morbidity, decay, and extended darkness. Actually, think pumpkins, comfy sweaters, and sipping Black Lodge Potions in front of a roaring fire.

Oh, how we love this time of year!

From Fawkes’ Flames to Festive Cheers: November’s Enchanting Elixirs at Black Lodge

Now that the spooky season is sadly behind us and we’ve all openly enjoyed watching effigies of a certain Mr Fawkes burn on huge fires (ahhh, just like the good old days), Brother G and Brother T have turned their attention to the upcoming end of year festivities.

You’d be forgiven for thinking that they’ve done this reluctantly – after all, the festive season is traditionally seen as being full of cheer, happiness, and goodwill –  but there’s more than a dash of darkness to be had too…as you’ll soon discover.

So, with that being said, let’s blow off the dust and spiders and unlock the Black Lodge Potions journal to see what devilish delights we have for you this month.


Markets and events

Although the Brothers are shy about making public appearances (especially in the daylight), they’re keen for you to try their delectable drinks so you can be won over by their spell.

That’s why you can see them in person at a number of events in the lead-up to The Big Day. Don’t be put off by their snarling and the funk of forty thousand years; come and say hello and sample some delicious flavoured gins that will tantalise and tickle your tastebuds.

The 12 Slays of Christmas

With December fast approaching, be sure to keep a spare eyeball out for our 12 Slays of Christmas event – a series of features that will delve deeper into the spookier side of Saint Nick. Expect to find tall tales of tinsel terror, recommendations for ‘alternate’ Christmas movies, and flavoured gin promotions aplenty.

That’s it for this month, my fiends. The next time our post raven comes ‘a calling your way, that dreaded Mariah Carey creature will be piercing our collective ears on a regular basis with her incessant festive shrieking.

All the more reason to enjoy a gin, we say.

Stay spooky,

Brother G and Brother T
