MIST1017/SPITOUFS-ANSIPOE-(26)-THE_PIT_AND_THE_PENDULUM


 Mistigram: this #ANSIart illustration of a rat was drawn by Spitoufs, ushering in the end of The Pit And The Pendulum in his ANSIPOE collection of the complete works of #EdgarAllanPoe, arranged for the enjoyment of BBS callers. It was included in the spooky MIST1017 artpack released seven years ago this month.

ADEPTAPRIL/OCT06


 Mistigram: Guten Tag! As AdeptApril's vexillological #ANSIart study here indicates, today celebrates German-American Day! I was going to accidentally spread the Muhlenberg legend here, but just caught myself in time. Auf Wiedersehen!

ADEPTAPRIL/OCT05


 Mistigram: anyone feel like stepping up to the blackboard and solving AdeptApril's #ANSIart algebra question for World Teacher's Day? (I've tried to see if there's a value for x that results in the answers spelling out today's date, but I think we're out of luck.)

MIST1019/AXL-LIGHTNING_JIVE


Mistigram: Is this a transformed Guild navigator, plotting a course for the folding of space?  Perhaps it's a hacker jacked permanently into the Grid?  Or maybe it's just an assemblage of dead organs sewed together and made to dance with sparks.  Either way, this #PLAYSCII animation was made by @axltm and included in the MIST1019 artpack collection released five years ago this month.

ADEPTAPRIL/OCT04


 Mistigram: AdeptApril celebrates World #Animal Day with this #ANSIart sketch of what I take to be a colourful #narwhal, the whale whose long tooth inspired the myth of the unicorn.

MIST1020/ILLARTERATE-REAPER


 Mistigram: you may not have realised that the #GrimReaper was a Yorkshireman, but @illarterate lays all doubts to rest in this #teletext illustration, included in the spooky MIST1020 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

ADEPTAPRIL/OCT03


 Mistigram: AdeptApril celebrated #GermanUnityDay by drawing this incredible vaporwave #ANSIart illustration of Berlin's famous #BrandenburgGate, a symbol of peace and unity.

MIST1022/ADEL_FAURE-AMITYVILLE


 Mistigram: this almost-monochrome #pixelart (pixboard?) illustration of the house at 112 Ocean Avenue in #Amityville, Long Island, where a mass murder took place in 1974, was drawn by @adelfaure. Accounts of the events leading up to and following the killings were sensationalised under the name #TheAmityvilleHorror. This piece was included in the spooky MIST1022 artpack collection released two years ago.

ADEPTAPRIL/OCT02


 Mistigram: I hear you -- I, also, was skeptical that the Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels was for real, but then I learned that it was a Catholic thing and it suddenly made a whole lot more sense. This #ANSIart illustration for #GuardianAngel Day was drawn by AdeptApril.
