Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on April 29, 1972)

Happy Birthday, Roman Dirge! Another year older and still delightfully twisted. Your dark humor and quirky creativity continue to charm us all—Lenore remains as endearingly macabre today as when she first tiptoed into our nightmares. You've proven that laughter can indeed coexist with the spooky side of life.

Congratulations on your continued success in captivating audiences worldwide; your unique blend of whimsy and darkness never fails to entertain. May this birthday bring you plenty of cake (hopefully not haunted), endless inspiration, and fewer zombie squirrels than last year. Keep being wonderfully weird—we wouldn't have it any other way!
