Hello everyone! First of all, I'd like to apologize. We had initially planned to release several Christmas-themed episodes of Howling Frequencies for the duration of this holiday season. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected illness on Mike's end, we were forced to cancel these plans so that he could focus on his recovery.

Fortunately, I just happened to have an idea for a new Video Essay that I was very eager to pursue, and so with Mike's permission, I decided to bring you all the Christmas gift of a video essay, which is the first one I've made in a very long time. It was a pleasure to work on this and re-discover why I enjoyed making these kinds of videos so much.

I decided to return once more to my most beloved film, Edward Scissorhands, which my mind always turns to around this time of year as the weather gets colder and Christmas time approaches.

While this video is definitely more of a personal project, and not related to Howling Frequencies whatsoever, I hope you guys enjoy it all the same.

Thank you so much for watching. Please like and subscribe if you enjoyed the video!
