L.K. The HorrorNerd

I know a week ago I previously stated that after all final YouTube video productions are finished on the horror/sci-fi themed channels that I'd start deleting everything and downloading them all to hard drives for me and my studio to lock up in our archive vault, but after careful consideration and reviewing the production schedule we have for the rest of 2026, along with the schedule for 2027 and my own personal schedule (like with the surgery, the move, the wedding, etc.), we've decided to cancel all remaining horror films from here on out, all YouTube video productions and move all footage to hard drives to save for the future when it's time to release a documentary sharing my 20-year journey in the horror community, the haunt industry and the horror film industry someday.

I've had a very long and healthy discussion with not just my entire studio company and the wonderful team that helps make all this possible, but also with my cohosts over at The HorrorNerd Experience, my closest and best friends and my partner/Sir who I'm marrying soon. And we all agree that other than Season 4 and Season 5 (the FINAL SEASON) to be finished in 2026 and 2027 for ‪@TheHorrorNerdExperience‬ and one really big final horror-themed photo shoot, we should start shifting focus permanently over at ‪@WanderlustWithLorelei‬, ‪@TheCozyMillennial‬, ‪@CozyChaoticNerds‬ and ‪@LoreleisCinematicSpectrum‬. There'll be a brand new YouTube channel coming soon that'll focus on my gender transition vlogs, disability vlogs, behind-the-scenes/diary-style life update vlogs, etc. along with a really cool brand new podcast series to go with that YouTube channel (yes, you can create a YouTube Podcast Series inside the same YouTube channel when creating a channel, did you know that?), so until then... this is the last post I'm making on this channel.

Expect Season 4 of The HorrorNerd Experience to premiere THIS FALL on October 1st, 2026. Season 5 (aka THE FINAL SEASON) that will conclude the entire series will premiere on October 1st, 2027. The horror-themed photo shoot is expected to be finished either this year or next year, depending on my schedules with other projects/productions, etc. We're also going to be very busy with other films that's not horror/sci-fi related and they've already been in production, so we'll be making changes that's to be revealed soon to our film production studio company. A lot's happening so I'm very excited about it. I'm sorry y'all are not getting the limited series of Sinister Sojourns, The HorrorNerd Screams and other really cool YouTube videos that would've been wonderful. But honestly, I'm not giving them the satisfaction of trying to harass me in the comments when they know they hold no power over me and I'm not going to give them the satisfaction of down-thumbing all my videos over and over, so Fuck them. I'm going to be fine. My friends, my true community and allies, we're all going to be fine. You can take your shitty transphobic toxic hate offline and go get some therapy. Seriously. The only way you'll ever really scare me and silence me is if you actually show up and FUCKING KILL ME. So until that happens, I'll be living my best life and being my true authentic self and when that happens, you won't succeed in killing me because I WILL BE THE FIRST TO KILL YOU in SELF-DEFENSE. GOOD LUCK.

I'm happy, and if you can't deal with the fact that I'm ACTUALLY HAPPY, then please, sincerely go Fuck yourselves and just die already. Like, it's not that hard to go kill yourselves since you're SO FUCKING MISERABLE. You complain and whine about me as if I supposedly "affect your lives" and honestly, it's just you being transphobic pieces of shits and a waste of human life on earth. Your mothers should've never given birth to you Fucking transphobic Nazi incels. Losers. Or... better yet, GO GET SOME THERAPY. And do not make any Fucking excuses about "how expensive it is" or whatever. If you can't get a therapist, there are free clinics that provides mental health services even at low affordable costs. I mean... come on. Seriously, go GET SOME HELP. FUCK YOU. BYE.

"PART III and CONCLUSION HERE:"

Now... for some important announcements:

As you can see, I'm retiring officially by the end of 2028. I'll have wrapped up all projects/productions by then and move forward with bigger and better things outside the horror community. I'll also be focused on doing different things that doesn't involve any of you so no need to force yourselves into my life. Bye.

Secondly, I'm moving to a brand new state after my vaginoplasty surgery. I'll have the surgery this summer, but I'll have a limited yet possible final tour this year. I'm not sure if I'll have another tour in 2027 as I'll be focused on the move and getting settled down in our new place we're renting for a year (me and my partner) and buying the new locations for our businesses to get things up and running then doing a lot of community work as well. We're also going to be buying a home after we're done renting for the year, then we're buying a second home a little later after that somewhere else outside of America and two different buildings also outside of America near the second home where we'll buy as well in the same country we'll buy said second home at... if that makes sense. Anyway, that'll also mean expanding and franchising (sort of) our businesses, and we are already eligible for dual citizenship so we'll be more than happy to give up our U.S. Citizenship soon if and when America turns to shit. We hope it won't, because we want to stay here as long as we can, but unfortunately, a group of genocide experts has officially sounded the alarms saying that we're now in a trans genocide here in America. So better to be safe than sorry.

Third, I will be getting married officially to my partner in the Fall of 2028. It'll definitely be during the LAST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER or the FIRST WEEK OF OCTOBER because we're finalizing all details and plans currently trying to get ahold of some venues to let us know when they'd be available for either week then we'll book it. We'll have a official website documenting and showcasing our engagement and wedding journey, our honeymoon, our post-honeymoon and our one year anniversary. We'll add a countdown to the wedding day, add a list of special activities for the entire wedding day/night, who will be performing on the musical stage at our wedding, a wedding gift registry and more. We'll also have an engagement photo shoot to release as well. We'll have videos and photos, a blog sharing perspectives from both sides separately and together - we'll both have access to the website and blog so we'll upload everything directly ourselves - and we'll have one or maybe 2 official social media accounts to link to the official website/blog as well. There'll also be sign language interpreters at the wedding and 100% actual accessibility and no, we're not talking about retrofitting - we're going to force the venue we're booking to be truly inclusive and accessible to everyone who's attending the wedding. And to make it easier to send out invitations, we'll set a mailing list but we'll have a system in place to prevent spam sign-ups and to ensure that it's actually people and actual human beings signing up and not spammers, scammers or creepy stalkers trying to sign up for the mailing list, so that we can contact you directly via the mailing list from our website to get details on how to receive the invites privately and securely as well as safely. We can, however, confirm that it's definitely happening in New Orleans, Louisiana in the Fall of 2028, but we will not divulge the actual address or any other sensitive information as we want to keep all guests, ceremony staff, the bride and groom (that's me and my partner - I'm the bride and my partner is the groom and we're both trans), the ordained presenters for our wedding, the musicians, catering company, etc. safe, so there will be very heightened security that is queer/trans staffed as well. We will have bouncers to check every invite and make sure your invites is legit and not fraudulent - otherwise, you'll be denied entry if it's a fake invite pass/ticket, etc.

Fourth, I'll still continue to write, draw, paint, do photography/modeling and other wonderful things that actually brings me true queer and trans joy and running the businesses with my partner as well. There's a lot of really exciting things coming so I'll be moving forward with that and leaving a lot of toxic people like yourselves behind.

And finally, throughout the rest of 2026, going into 2027 and then 2028, slowly but surely, all official horror-related channels, such as ‪@LifeAsAHorrorNerdMillennial‬, ‪@LKTheHorrorNerd‬, ‪@TerrorBytesEraGaming‬, ‪@SinisterSojourns‬, ‪@OconethStudios‬ and ‪@TheHorrorNerdExperience‬ will be deleted permanently after all their final projects/productions/YouTube videos, etc. are officially concluded and some time has passed long enough for you (our true friends, wonderful community members, etc.) to watch them and enjoy them, etc. Then we'll be downloading all of them onto very specifically labeled hard drives and deleting them all off our YouTube channels and then proceed to delete the YouTube channels. Also, only two of the YouTube channels currently this year will be deleted earlier than planned because it's getting to be too much work and my studio and I are not going to have enough time to finish the work we had planned for those two YouTube channels. You'll know in advance which ones will be deleted first, then the rest will follow.

Oh, and one last thing I forgot to announce: as of Midnight LAST NIGHT Eastern Time, all comments on my post, videos, livestreams, shorts, etc. are officially turned off for safety reasons. Like I said, I don't have time to entertain you. I only have time to finish what I started, enjoy life and move forward. Bye, losers. Go get some help and see your therapists, please. Thanks.

In case you didn't see the comments in the announcement last night, we're dropping this as "Part II" here:

6. Oh, and any and all copyrighted/trademarked/watermarked/registered, etc. works of mine, official email address of mine, content of mine, merchandise of mine that I sell, etc. is mine and mine alone. I registered everything and if anyone sees someone pretending to be me and trying to sell fake shit that's clearly not my work or not my content, not my merchandise and receiving spammy emails that's not coming from MY OFFICIAL EMAIL ADDRESS, it's NOT ME. This is more like a legal disclaimer than an rule, but just want to put that out there. You'll be seeing a copyright/trademark disclaimer a lot more in the years to come and currently now too. In fact, you've already been seeing it for a while now. YOU WILL BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE COPYRIGHT/TRADEMARK LAWS WE HAVE IN THE UNITED STATES. DO NOT FUCK WITH ME.

7. When I retire and release my final batch of YouTube videos and my final batch of indie horror short films, etc., DO NOT ATTEMPT TO HARASS ME ANYMORE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIND ME. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOOK UP WHERE I LIVE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO GO AFTER ME, MY PARTNER, MY FRIENDS, MY LOVED ONES OR ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH ME IN THE COMMUNITIES I AM A PART OF. WHEN I SAY I AM FUCKING DONE AT THE END OF 2028, I FUCKING MEAN I AM FUCKING DONE. I AM FUCKING RETIRED. I AM WORKING ON NEW, BIGGER, BETTER AND WONDERFUL THINGS THAT IS FAR AWAY FROM THE HORROR COMMUNITY. FUCK THE TRANSPHOBIC, RACIST, ABLEIST, ZIONIST, XENOPHOBIC, AUDIST, WHOREPHOBIC, FATPHOBIC, ISLAMOPHOBIC, HOMOPHOBIC, QUEERPHOBIC, SEXIST, MISOGYNISTIC, TRANSMISOGYNISTIC, NEO-NAZI, FAR-RIGHT, SO-CALLED "CENTRIST" HORROR COMMUNITY. I AM NOT COMING BACK. LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE. STARTING NOW ALL THE WAY TO THE END OF 2028. DO NOT SAY ANYTHING TO ME, DO NOT APPROACH ME. DO NOT EVEN TOUCH ME. IF YOU TRY ANYTHING, YOU WILL DIE. THAT IS NOT A THREAT, THAT IS A PROMISE. I AM VERY WELL TRAINED IN VARIOUS METHODS OF SELF-DEFENSE, SO DO NOT EVEN FUCKING TRY ME. YOU WILL NOT LIVE TO SEE THE MORNING. When my friends tell you to leave me alone too, you leave me the FUCK ALONE. Okay? Be respectful. I'm asking nicely only once - go the fuck away, please. Thank you.

8. Oh, and do not ever bully me or mock me based on my being trans, disabled, AuDHD, Deaf-Blind, neurodivergent, etc. - you'll be roasted, mocked relentlessly in my stand-up comedy shows and you'll be called out. A LOT. Especially in my stand-up comedy material. And it's going to OFFEND YOU. #SorryNotSorry

9. Do not lie, do not spread misinformation and do not even attempt to gaslight me. I know exactly what happened and exactly what was done, what was said between all parties involved and more importantly, I know exactly who should be held accountable. YOU ARE NOT INVOLVED AT ALL. STAY THE FUCK OUT OF IT. I know EXACTLY what started it all. Because if I find out you try to spread harmful misinformation that could nearly or actually get me killed, I will find out who started this misinformation shit and I WILL BE COMING AFTER YOU. You better start packing up and move. That's your one and only warning. I'm going to be nice now: don't start shit with me, there won't be any shit to start. We'll be groovy here, alright?

10. This is the last but most important rule of all: When all my final projects, productions, my final horror-themed photo shoot, my autobiography about my 20-year journey in the horror community, YouTube videos, short horror films, etc. are completed, published and released, even after 2028, since some of the films will have to have later release dates unfortunately due to various rules regarding submissions for film festival entries and whatnot, and I send in a representative from my studio to read written statements from me to speak on my behalf, do not heckle, harass or even try to hate-review or review-bomb my content, projects, productions, films, book, photo shoot, etc. - I put a LOT OF TIME, money, effort, hard work, patience, love, sweat, practical effects, fake blood (LOTS OF IT and guts too, and some actual real blood since we did get accidentally cut a few times - I personally got accidentally hit and cut, but it's all good. It's worth the pain to have fun acting and directing/producing/filming it all), props, makeup, sleepless nights and traveling to get all this done, so if you're doing this without actually watching or listening or even reading any of it, people will know based on this post that I just made just now when they revisit and I remind them that you're doing it out of spite and out of hate and being bigoted jerks. So it'll backfire on you and it'll make you look bad. So let this be my final but wonderful gory queer and trans horror film legacy that I deserve to leave behind for all marginalized communities who deserve to have a safe space without your Fucking bullshit and your Fucking toxic "apolitical/centrist" bullshit too (aka codeword Neo-Nazi/far-right bullshit), so leave it alone. I might maybe appear at one or two film screenings, but the rest will have a representative of my choosing with each different written statement by yours truly to appear each time. I'll be busy living life and creating new and exciting things outside of the horror community and definitely without you. So FUCK OFF. Go get a life. Get off the internet. Bye, losers in your mama's basements - you wish you could Fuck me. But I won't let your tiny dicks touch me. Ha. Only my partner who's marrying me is gonna touch me and damn... they're Fucking hot. Way hotter than you.

L.K. The HorrorNerd

Time to set up some ground rules/boundaries and I have some announcements to share after that:

1. You know the famous saying: If you have NOTHING NICE TO SAY, DO NOT FUCKING SAY IT AT ALL. If it's not constructive criticism that is actually helpful, not positive, not supportive, not gender affirming, not respectful, kind, etc., it will NOT BE APPROVED. In fact, all comments has been moderated to be pending for approval and reviewed before getting said approval or denial. You also MUST BE A SUBSCRIBER FOR MORE THAN ONE WEEK TO BE ABLE TO COMMENT ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING I CREATE/POST. NO EXCEPTIONS.

2. RESPECT MY PRONOUNS. RESPECT MY GENDER IDENTITY AND THE FACT THAT I'VE HAD AN ACTUAL VERY LONG GENDER TRANSITION FOR NEARLY 3 DECADES AND THAT I HAVE HAD GENDER DYSPHORIA SINCE THE AGE OF 5. I AM ALMOST 38 YEARS OLD LATER THIS FALL. I AM MORE MATURE MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY THAN MOST OF YOU IN YOUR AGE GROUPS OF YOUR 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and even 80s! Why? Because I've seen and actually LIVED THROUGH SHIT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HANDLE OR SURVIVE. There's even certain things that I have lived through that I MIGHT wish on my worst evil enemies, but even then, I won't stoop to your level that low so no, the things I lived through I WOULD NOT WISH ON MY WORST AND MOST EVIL ENEMIES. I am compassionate, but I have no sympathy for those who are racist, transphobic, homophobic, xenophobic, fatphobic, ableist, whorephobic, slut-shaming, queerphobic, Islamophobic, etc. - if you truly have hate in your hate, go see a therapist. Go get some real help. Get off the Internet. You're better than that. You are probably in the same age group as I am and you should know better than to behave like how you behave. I know personally ‪@screamqueenpodcast‬ has directly asked many of you on her Instagram stories NOT TO GO AFTER ME OR TO HARASS ME. I do not know about Ken of Sledgehammer Horror considering I haven't heard or seen him say that he has told anyone not to harass/threaten or to go after me. If he hasn't, then he needs to be held accountable.

3. Leave MY FRIENDS ALONE. LEAVE MY MUTUALS ALONE. LEAVE MY LOVED ONES ALONE. Leave everyone else ALONE. And definitely leave my partner alone. I am SO GLAD you don't know who my partner is and even when we do drop the engagement photo shoot coming out soon, they will not care what you say or do to us - we're going to get married because they asked me to marry them and they're trans and we're VERY FUCKING HAPPY, so FUCK YOU. Wait until you see the very last photo of the engagement photo shoot - it's going to PISS YOU OFF. Ha!

4. You do not have to thumbs down everything I created so far nor the final batch of YouTube videos I'm releasing later this year and part of 2027 as well. I'm leaving the horror community anyway. You have no idea what started it all between Ken and me and you didn't bother to even watch all of my 3-part Instagram Reel limited series, which I will upload here to YouTube later on so you can STFU and walk away. I have AuDHD and I'm not using it as a shield or anything - I'm just simply saying I'm almost 38 years old. I don't have time to be on the Internet 24/7 unlike some of you. I have a life outside of YouTube and all social media platforms. When the cameras go off, I go live an actually fulfilling and enjoyable life. I have a wonderful cat, a beautiful dog, my partner who I'm marrying, great friends, fun community events I attend, projects and productions I work on at the studio or at home and I'm oftentimes busy with doctor's appointments, therapy sessions every week, resting when I can and activism. I barely have the spoons to reply to your pathetic and hateful negative toxic shit comments which barely fazes me and doesn't even hurt me at all. It's that simple. I have no intention to be YouTube Partner nor Twitch Partner. I tried and came close a few times over the years, but I'm honestly content and I'm okay. I am creating what I wanted to create and I'll be done soon anyway. Besides... I got bigger and better things to do coming soon. And you won't be a part of it.

5. When I say respect my boundaries, I FUCKING MEAN IT. All held comments that's not approved will be screenshotted and forwarded to my lawyers at the legal department at my studio and they'll find out who you are, where you live and issue you restraining orders. I don't have to DO A DAMN THING. I can just simply smile, live life, have my queer and trans joy, actually enjoy life and be happily married and not respond to any of your bigoted, hateful toxic shit-fuckery at all. I'm good. I don't need to sink to your level. I'm SOOOO GOOD.

You want to be really hateful and thumbs down all my videos? So be it. I don't care at this point anymore. There's truly no Fucks left to give. You can assume, you can make up all the stories in your head to make me the "villain" in your eyes and all that. But in the end, you'll realize white supremacy kills. Transphobia kills. Misogyny AND transmisogyny KILLS. Everything you do is killing our horror community and all communities in general. Your allyship is performative at best and you're fake AF.

People will see your true colors. And in the end, I'm going to be at peace. I'm going to have a lot of people apologizing to me only for me to never accept said apologies and never forgive. You will be held accountable. All of you. At least I'm free. At least I'm happy. At least I'm my true authentic self and that I TRULY GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PEOPLE in our various communities and that I have an actual sense of empathy, unlike many of you.

So goodbye. All YouTube videos I made so far? It's all being downloaded onto a hard drive and deleted. There will be a new channel trailer, yes, but only one final batch of videos that's mostly short updates, behind-the-scenes thoughts and the declaration that L.K. The HorrorNerd is dead and that it's time for me to do bigger and better things. WITHOUT YOU. Only the real ones, my true friends, REAL TRANS ALLIES, anti-fascist leftists, my partner (and the kinky soulmate/true love of my life) and my various mutuals in various communities that I'm a part of, they're the only ones that's allowed to come with me. YOU, however, WILL BE LEFT BEHIND.

I'm finally alive again. And everything feels just right.

Finally... the FINALE EPISODE of From Beyond the Dead with Yours Truly is here at last. I'm excited to be showing you the new changes coming your way in 2026 this year.

My behind-the-scenes vlog series lasted 15 episodes over the span of 3 years and it's been a great journey. But now is the time for the series to be rebranded and reborn as Inside The Creative Terrors, which will be moved to be EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON.

Enjoy the Screams. Be seeing you soon.

Just dropped a bonus holiday episode from my new series, The HorrorNerd Screams.

Enjoy. Thank you for your support as always and I'll be seeing you soon in 2026 with brand new episodes. Pretty soon, we'll start making this a full-time series with a decent schedule and whatnot, so until then, just be patient with me.

Also, captions are being worked on and edited currently so it'll be added soon. Thanks again for your patience.

Happy Holidays.

Here it is: Episode 14 of From Beyond the Dead with Yours Truly.

Also, there'll be one more episode after this because chances are, we'll finally convert it into its own brand new behind-the-scenes diary style vlog web series called Inside The Creative Terrors and put it on its own YouTube channel going forward, but I think it'll be more like a Patreon-exclusive web series than a YouTube series since there's not exactly a clear category for this kind of series anyway.

So stay tuned for more details to come when Episode 15 comes around. Also, do be patient with me and my studio crew as we finalize adding captions for this episode. It's still being updated, so thank you for understanding. We've been really busy lately.

Until then, Enjoy the Screams. We'll be working on releasing the two review videos/episodes for The HorrorNerd Screams and then start work on finishing up the season/series premiere episodes of Sinister Sojourns and TerrorBytes Era Gaming soon.

Got a lot to catch up on for the rest of this month before we dive into 2026. Gonna be a even busier year. Be seeing you soon again.
