Eros Noir

Lest you be concerned that Eros Noir—which describes itself as a "magazine of dark, erotic places" —might be one of those poser noir websites, rest assured: when you visit this gorgeously produced and finely curated online showcase you'll practically hear the saxophone echoing off the dingy alleyways of some sordid, secret-filled city (but in a kind of modern, non-retro sort of way). The main draw here are the exclusive photosets by some great artists like Marc Blackie of Disappointed Virginity, Natacha Merritt of Digital Diaries fame, and Fleshbot faves Eric Kroll and Chad Michael Ward, as well as written erotica by such masters (and mistresses) of the genre as Thomas Roche and Esther Count. While you're at it, there's also essays on famous Femme Fatales, a sexy Manson Family slideshow (really), and lots of other titillating surprises. Looks like your dark and lonely nights just got a little less lonely ...
