The Mirror at the End of the Lane by Chris Conidis is a haunting tale that delves deep into the truths we often avoid.

Genre: Horror / Dark Fantasy
A cycle of dark tales connected by objects, omens, and the strange forces that carry them across generations. Each story stands alone yet echoes another—woven by unseen hands and bound by fear, fate, and forgotten pacts. Gothic-modern in aesthetic, rich in mood and myth.

Hitchcock: Master of suspense, but also the guy who made you question whether or not your mother actually loves you
Dark Comedy DNA: Why Satirists Owe a Drink to Hitchcock, Serling, and Chaplin.
I’ve been rewatching Hitchcock, not for suspense—but for stillness. For his intros as satire - there’s something about a man in a tight frame, doing absolutely nothing, that feels louder than screams. I’m chasing that tension in silence for my own projects lately. Still frames, breath between lines, paranoia with no soundtrack.

Chris Conidis Unveils “Progress City”: A Satirical Take on Futurism and Modern Life
​
“Progress City,” a sharp satire that takes a deep, comical dive into society’s love affair with “progress.” This new project, a sprawling parody of futurism and modern life, unpacks humanity’s journey from the cave to today’s social dilemmas. With his trademark humor, Conidis pokes fun at how every era has imagined the future—often with more confidence than accuracy—and how these visions have both shaped and clashed with reality.
​
In “Progress City,” Conidis explores humanity’s attempts at advancing, for better or worse, across a variety of eras, from our early ancestors’ first discovery of fire to the contemporary pursuit of “likes” and “followers.” He calls it “a humorous archaeological dig through the fossil record of our ambitions,” and each chapter pulls no punches. Rather than romanticizing humanity’s progress, Conidis tackles the myths and follies of each era with a critical, entertaining eye.
​
“The funny thing about the future,” Conidis says, “is that every generation thinks they’re the first to figure it out. We’re not all that different from cavemen—we just swapped campfire storytelling for scrolling and status updates.” His approach is part critique, part stand-up comedy routine, and all satire, painting a portrait of human nature as it has evolved—technologically, if not always intellectually.
​
In the spirit of Conidis’s previous works, “Progress City” doesn’t merely poke fun at the past and present; it asks readers to reflect on the direction we’re heading. “We’re in an age where tech rules our lives, but we still don’t know what to do with our hands when we take a photo,” he jokes. “Progress has made us smarter on paper, but when it comes to common sense, well… let’s just say it might still be in beta testing.” These observations reveal the hilarious contradictions between our advanced tools and the often unchanged human instincts that wield them.
​
One central theme of “Progress City” is how humanity’s constant push for the “next big thing” sometimes results in absurdity. “Every few centuries, someone invents something that they swear will change the world—stone tools, steam engines, social media algorithms—and yet here we are, still figuring out how to get along.” Conidis believes that the project will resonate with audiences who can relate to the idea of progress that somehow always leaves us wanting more.
​
He takes aim at today’s obsession with technology as well, particularly the ways we measure success and fulfillment in digital terms. “In caveman days, your status symbol was the biggest piece of mammoth meat. Today, it’s your follower count. Either way, it’s about who’s got the biggest… following,” he quips. “Progress City” explores how these primitive instincts have evolved—or haven’t—despite our sophisticated new toys.
Conidis’s audience will find that “Progress City” is as much a mirror as it is a comedy. By setting today’s achievements alongside the feats of ancient societies, he paints a comedic picture of the ways we repeat old patterns even as we think we’re blazing new trails. “If we’re so futuristic, why do we still find ourselves in traffic jams?” he jokes. “If the cavemen could see us now, they’d probably just laugh.”
Chris Conidis continues to delight audiences by dissecting society’s quirks with a refreshing sense of humor, proving that comedy can be a powerful tool for reflection. “Progress City” promises to be an enlightening, entertaining journey through the timeline of human aspirations, inviting readers to laugh at how much we’ve changed—and how much we haven’t.

Finding Inspiration in Every Turn (Even If It’s Just the Bathroom Breaks)
​
Chris Conidis sprinkles in some historical trivia, and tears apart pop culture like a kid with a piñata. Ever wonder what it takes to be an expert in absolutely nothing? Look no further. Known for his ability to leave no trace in the annals of history, He is a distinguished master of “meh.” While some aim for fame, he is content on being the unsung hero of mediocre pursuits, championing the art of sarcastic observation and the pursuit of temperate achievements.He’s not here to change the world…He is just here to rearrange the deck chairs while the ship goes down.
A Time-Traveling Survivor of Humanity’s Greatest Hits (and Misses)
​
Born in the primordial soup of human history, Conidis began his journey as a humble caveman, chipping away at rocks and early attempts at sarcasm. He was the original influencer—drawing stick figures on cave walls before it was cool. Back then, it wasn’t about followers, it was about making sure the woolly mammoth didn’t follow you home.
As human history unfolded, Conidis was there every step of the way, dodging plagues and bad fashion trends with the same grace he now dodges Twitter trolls. He witnessed the rise and fall of ancient civilizations, advising great minds like Socrates and Plato on the importance of taking a break to “just chill, man.” Of course, his ideas of a philosophical toga party weren’t taken seriously at the time, but that didn’t stop him from cracking a few jokes about the invention of democracy—”more like Demo-Crazy,” he’d say.
​
He helped the Egyptians brainstorm pyramid designs (the triangle was his idea, by the way) and even made a brief pit stop in the Dark Ages, where he tried to bring some light to the situation—unfortunately, his fire jokes were ahead of their time.
​
Fast forward through history, and Conidis found himself navigating the Renaissance, dropping knowledge on Da Vinci (“Ever think about making flying machines, dude?”), and surviving countless revolutions, most of which he deemed “way too dramatic.” From dodging cannonballs in the French Revolution to critiquing Napoleon’s height in person, Conidis has seen—and roasted—it all.
​
And then, disaster struck: the modern era. Thrown headfirst into a world of selfies, hashtags, and TikTok dances, Conidis was left bewildered by the concept of social media influencers—people who gained millions of followers by doing… absolutely nothing. “So… we’ve come from inventing fire to lip-syncing on a phone screen? I missed the memo,” he mused.Today, Conidis spends his days both baffled and amused by a civilization obsessed with filters and “likes,” often comparing modern social media to cave paintings—”Except with cave paintings, at least we had some culture.” As a seasoned time traveler, he’s still trying to figure out how the human race went from inventing the wheel to making unboxing videos. But through it all, Conidis remains a witness to the madness, armed with timeless sarcasm and an unshakeable sense of humor that has survived—and mocked—the ages.
