Celebrated 8 years of marital bliss a couple days ago ❤️‍🔥

Currently posting this from the city we were married in. Kind of a full circle moment. First photo is a throwback taken four years ago on our wedding anniversary in front of Stephen King’s former home in Maine/ Second slide was taken the day before yesterday at our favorite cemetery here in Chicago. We have spanned so much time between these photos, four years apart to the day, and my love for you, dear @death.scum, has only grown with each passing one.
What more could I say that hasn’t already been said before about our love? Sometimes I think there are no words to convey the immensity of this feeling inside of me anyhow (none in our current lexicon of mundane words and cliche phrases anyway.) There are just so many things that I would like to say to you, but I don’t know how…

What I can say definitively is: I am so glad I found you in this life, and I look forward to finding you again and again— in the next life and every life thereafter— until the universe implodes around us and we’re sucked back up into the vacuous black hole of stars and dust and fragments of angel meat, where we began. 

Thank you for saving me, my wonderwall.
I love you eternally.

Time for the TEA! 🫖☕️
For a year @theferalherbalist has been deftly conjuring an infernal delight for the cvlt that is guaranteed to evoke the spirit of Covet. It’s not just tea, it is an invocation of the rebellion and hedonism that compose our beloved space. 
Covet isn’t for everyone, and it never will be. That’s a promise. 
Nicole’s hands have crafted a tea as sweet as our love, and as spicy as our scorn. She made it for you, our collective community, who are everything to both Covet and Into The Feral. 

HAIL Into The Feral!
HAIL Covet Oddities!
HAIL Infernal Community!
HAIL SATAN!

Last day of the warmer months, so I figured I’d cap off my summer photo dump before I never do it. Too many photos and moments to fit here but, it’s something, and really, everything, all at the same time. A few months worth of ecstasy.
Better late than never.

See you in October.

@death.scum answers some Would You Rather questions ahead of our sold out ‘Would You Rather?’ event this Saturday. 
*Apologies to @death.scum’s mom in advance. And all hail @crowbarmusic and all those heavy hitters in the pit.

Our friend- author, artist, museum curator, true crime enthusiast, convicted murderer, blood drinker and cannibal— @nicoclaux_official “The Vampire of Paris”, stopped into the shop recently with his lovely wife, Cat, and some of their friends! 
We had a great time talking death, catacombs and true crime, telling stories in the Memento Mori room, and discussing his latest exhibit, the Serial Killer Exhibition, currently open and running until the end of January in the Cinespace Chicago Film Studio in North Lawndale. 

Nico was kind enough to sign some of the actual placards from the exhibit for us, which are available now in the shop! And, of course, we had to delight them with a shot of Malört after we realized none of them had ever had it!! They seemed to… like it ? Maybe…? ☠️

Even if the Malört didn’t dazzle them, it truly was a wonderful experience. We love meeting and making new friends and connecting with kindred spirits who share our same interests and passions, and this group was absolutely aces.
Thank you again, Nico & Cat, for taking the time out of your incredibly busy schedules to spend some time with us at Covet. We hope it’s not too long before our paths cross again! 🥂💀

Also, if you’re like us and you’re into true crime, be sure to check out Nico’s in-depth serial killer exhibition while it’s here in Chicago! Link for tickets and more info is in our bio! Maybe we’ll see you there 👀

End of (summer) days…

I have tons of photos from the summer I need to post. They’re coming (in no particular order). Lots of friends and family from far away came to visit. Lots of friends here in Chicago spanning time. So many beautiful moments… so little time. Funny how things change.
Funny how things change—

K. I’ll see ya when I see ya. Love love love to you all.

We get asked for recommendations on places to eat in the neighborhood A LOT— from people visiting Covet from out of state to Illinois locals who maybe aren’t super familiar with the Logan Square area— so we decided to start this vlog series to highlight our favorite neighborhood restaurant picks (and what vegan bites we love there!) to help people find their new go-to spot when visiting Covet!
Come along with us while we eat our way through the neighborhood and showcase some of the other small businesses in the area! 🍽️ 

Up first is:

BÁNH MÌ SPOT

July was an incredible month full of incredible moments and visitors— both familiar and unfamiliar to Covet. We brought some new jewelry, prints from local artists, band merch, occult books and goth accessories into the shop, and people have been loving it all. Hell’s emissary @daddybaphy666’s visit was a big success and we are already looking into his return in the near future for those who missed him earlier this month 🔥 We’re also heavy into planning some other new exciting events with beloved guests and friends, which we can’t wait to share with you all in the coming months! Oh, we’ve started a channel this month as well, called Covet Legion and it is open to all who want to join, just follow the little tab on our bio that says “Covet Legion” and you’ll find us there. 

Each and every day Covet is growing— growing our inventory, our space, our reach, but most importantly, in love and gratitude. With every month that passes, and every new face we see, every excited greeting received, every moment of celebration shared within our walls— our conjoined hearts swell and stretch like a squelching, flesh balloon ready to burst… We feel all of the love and beauty each and every one of you brings, and we have been sending it right back out to you triple fold. 

Thank you all for your support over the past 13 months. We have come so far, and we’re only just getting started…
🖤
