Dead Man’s Bones
Dead Man’s Bones by Dead Man’s Bones, is a 13-track love fest with Halloween.
Backed by Silverlake Conservatory Children's Choir, Dead Man’s Bones is a duo consisting of Ryan Gosling – appearing under the alias “Baby Goose” – and his friend Zach Shields.
The two friends met in 2005 – Gosling was dating his Notebook co-star Rachel McAdams, while Shields was dating her sister – and bonded over a shared fascination with the supernatural.
One particular mutual obsession was Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion ride – a late 60s attraction narrated in lilting rhyme (sample quote: “Goblins and ghoulies from last Halloween/awaken the spirits with your tambourine!”) by the ghostly occupants of each room of a haunted house.
This unlikely inspiration became the basis of an ambitious musical theatre project, scrapped when it became financially unlikely, and reworked as a ‘do it yourself’ album on which Shields and Gosling played every instrument, learning cello, piano and drums as they went along.

It can become a important influence in your personal spiritual growth.
Throughout history Witches kept their journals in code and secret.
They did so to protect themselves and the craft.
Even though the use of a code may not be necessary today, below is an example of a secret code you could use if you so desire…
