Necromancer Nadia used drug magick to resurrect her dead boyfriend Mike…. and now they have a deth rock band "WHITE KNIVES" this is their love story.
Get lit and witness excerpts from Night Shade's illuminated ZINE EXqUiSiTe CoRpSe as 'Necromancer Nadia' & 'Dead Mike' rise from the grave and conjure their own brand of deth rock with their band WHITE KNIVES. Haunting imagery slices across the shadow screen to invoking an esoteric shadow show from the burial realm.
