"Gothic Press" Strikes Again! and the Price Drops 10%!

Gothic Press, the commercial entity run by Sean Manchester, has whined to Blogger that linking to his book for sale on Ebay has violated the DCMA Act. So the picture of a book for sale on Ebay has been deleted.

Never fear - the seller has been unmolested and still has the image up on Ebay. And the price is now 10% off!

Sweet'ums, you can't delete for sale images. Man-up before everything falls off.

Sean Edits THV Cover for Facebook Page!

Talk about revisionist history! Sean has edited his "vampire" self portrait for his VRS Facebook page!

Compare with the orginial up on Ebay for sale:

What's wrong Sean? Are you afraid the noobs on Facebook will recognize you and realize you are a fake?

Hey and look at the organizers of the new VRS; there's Sean;
our good buddy and sock puppet Arminus; and an actual real person from Bristol. I notice Katrina Garforth-Bles and Dennis Crawford have gone missing. Where are they? Did they retire? Are they dead? Did the socks wear out?

Maybe the Posse should join and let the few Facebook members (only 184 this time instead of thousands) know about Sean's deals with the Devil on Ebay.

Crybaby Sean Tries to Silence Don Ecker Report

Net Curtains Raps Sean's Posterior

This past weekend, instead of celebrating Father's Day, hearing confessions or celebrating mass in his Church of the Net Curtains garden loo, whiny Sean Manchester was up to no good. Although Don Ecker removed a public document that offended the delicate prelate, the Bish had Don's revised report removed here at Net Curtains as well. The Posse was forwarded the complaint from his royal highness and excellency himself:

[Note: we have deleted the private contact information that does not appear in public records, even though we don't have to because the man is a public figure and the address he uses is also a commercial address. But we are nicer and have more ethics than Sean. ]

Nine images uploaded by Don Ecker on the page above are my exclusive
copyright. They have been stolen and completely misrepresented by Don Ecker who is engaged in a hate campaign against me in collaboration with a convicted felon in the UK. I have identified the nine infringed images below by recording the text immediately below (or alongside)each image.

Pursuant to 17 USC 512(c)(3)(A), this communication serves as a
statement that:

I am the exclusive rights holder for the images that appear with the captions or adjoining text:

1. Here is the Rt. Reverend fending off a Vampire Bat displayed on his book "The Vampire Hunter's Handbook."

2. Yes, here is ol' Sean, (who by the way was calling himself a Lord, Hey it's a British thing)
3. The secret of these two guys (in my very informed opinion) was that
back in the day

4 & 5. The really funny part was when the Criminal Investigators came to question Farrant demanding to know where Manchester's body was.

6. Sean and Sarah

7. I don't know if you've ever seen a wound on someone's throat . but I have and this sure as hell isn't one.

8. Sean Manchester or or David Farrant?

9. Peace Treaty.

"Sen" Manchester? Looks like the ASCII text stripped out his stupid non-English accented a.

Well Sean, I'm flummoxed. Your sock puppet the Demonologist said you never read the blogosphere as you are far to busy with important things, yet here you are emailing in person. You traffic with Satanists, yet see yourself as the holiest of holies. You lift other's images, use them and claim fair use, but infringe upon the rights of others to use your images even when it's within their legal rights. Sean, you are the biggest hypocrite in the western world.

Oh, well. Don's report may be gone for now, but some good came out of this. Some of the Posse may be traveling to London on business in the coming months. We'll ring you up when we get there. Perhaps we can have tea. Or perhaps our resident Don Juan of the Cubicle will chat up the wife if she's lonely.

In any event, cheers mate. We'll be in touch and see you soon! I think the delightful Ms. Furbish is coming with us, so perhaps you'll be nice and autograph her copy of THV.

Bargain hunters take note. A signed copy of that mighty book is for sale on Ebay for a mere 73.78 USD, plus shipping.

Think about it - having a book touched by his holiness himself, Lord Pope Bishop Sean Manchester, dispatcher of evil vampires, nemesis of Satan and his imps, seller of books through occult dealers and bastard great-grandson of Lord Byron.

Do check out the listing as the seller is showing the pictures deleted from the second edition.

Don't let this one get away!

Note to Bonky: When a person is selling an item, it is legal for them to photograph the outside and inside of the item for sale.
