Another blogger has reviewed The Barking Ghost [warning: complete spoilers], a Goosebumps book that I picked up a while ago from a used book stall.

It’s the shortest and lamest member of my Black Dogs book collection. I’m currently trying to muster the energy to start The Kettle Chronicles: The Black Dog again; it’s historical fiction about the Bungay Black Shuck incident, which ought to be epically fabulous, but it’s written somewhat densely and the story is mostly about some human characters for whom I have little interest, so I only got partway through.

*skims the rest of the Wikipedia article* WAIT WHAT Shuckie is mentioned in Northern Lights? One of my favourite books of all time mentions one of my favourite historical persons of all time and I somehow have not NOTICED THIS?

Oh, since you’re here, have some Black Dogs in popular culture.
