You will never escape . . The Dagger Woods.
This piece pays homage to those awesome but vague horror movie posters from the 1970s. They tell you just enough to catch your attention, but no storyline or actors were revealed, just a big skull with the movie title.
There is actually a place in rural Nova Scotia called Dagger Woods. I remember seeing the sign when I was little and thinking "That sounds like the scariest place on earth."

Cannot give the exact ID as this seems much greyer on top than the ones I have checked.

I first saw this about 2"-long Dagger moth caterpillar (Acronicta americana) this morning on the garage floor, near the door. I gently brushed it onto the driveway and took this photo. I stepped away for just a moment, and when I returned to take more photos, it had vanished.
According to BugGuide, it is the largest dagger moth in the East. The caterpillar. whose hairs can cause skin irritation, feeds on leaves of alder, ash, birch, elm, hickory, maple, oak, poplar, walnut, willow and other deciduous trees.

Not sure how come this F-102A 56-1219 at the Empire State Aerosciences Museum has to make do wIth wooden supports. I can only assume that at some point there was an issue with its undercarriage?
However, at least during its tenure there it has received a new paint job, representing the 27th Fighter Interception Squadron that was based at Griffiss AFB in upstate New York until 1959.

Seen in one of the artist studios we visited, obviously not the best setting but I haven't seen this moth before.
I think this is a Grey Dagger moth. Although information online states that the species is impossible to tell apart from the Dark Dagger, given that the Dark Dagger flies in June and July, and the Grey Dagger June to August, the Grey is more likely. Both species are common.
Yes I was inspired twice.
Ornate dagger, ivory handle, engraved blade, fancy sheath.
Comes copy/mod as always, and a box of the textures is included if you want to fiddle.
9-12mm. This is the largest of the genus. It is a bristly fly with brown-tinged wings. It has black femora but the tibia and tarsi may be red/brown. It frequents hedges, woodland edges, gardens and shrubby habitats. Particularly common on Hogweed and other umbellifer flowers. Though it feeds on nectar it is also a predator and catches other insects using its long pointed proboscis to pierce their bodies. Males of E. opaca and E. tessellata present a 'gift' to the female, in the form of a dead insect, before mating takes place. Females will not mate with males who do not present a gift.

The Grey Dagger (Acronicta psi) is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found from Europe and North Africa to northern Iran, Central Asia, southern and central Siberia and Mongolia. In the Levant it is found in Lebanon and Israel.
This species has grey forewings with bold black dagger-shaped markings. (The Latin specific name also refers to these markings, as resembling the Greek letter psi ψ.) The hindwings are dirty grey, generally paler in the male. The wingspan is 34-45 mm. The Grey Dagger flies at night from June to August [1] and is attracted to light and sometimes to sugar.
The larva seen here is whitish below and black above with red spots and a bold yellow stripe along the back. It has a distinctive horn just behind the head (absent from the larva of Dark Dagger). It feeds on a wide range of plants, mainly trees and shrubs (see list below). The species overwinters as a pupa.
I was quite surprised to see this as they are usually flying by now, will keep an eye on him to see how he develops.
