Found this tile near South Station in purely by chance after our flight was cancelled and we had to run to catch a train instead (at least we were able to work something out to get home). Anyway…it’s the only tile I know of in Boston, but I’m not sure if that’s because I don’t have enough eyes in Boston or there just really aren’t any others up there.

🚨🚨🚨🚨
SIX NEW TILES REPORTED IN CINCINNATI!!

This is the first time in nearly a decade that authentic House of Hades have been reported so far west. Just last year we heard of tiles in Pittsburgh, so to hear Cincinnati already is shocking. These were also (almost) definitely left by HoH himself, instead of a collaborator. One can only wonder how far west HoH will go…

The pictured monochromatic brown Toynbee tile below puts us over the hump of 20 reported 2023-vintage tiles with 10 in , 9 in , and 1 in . There are surely more out there, but we don’t yet have the street team capacity to canvass to a much of nyc & the rest of the tile territories. Please keep an eye out for tiles and get in touch if you find one—even an old one!

WOW!! These two today bring us up to 5 new in specifically, for a grand total of 14 in 2023 so far (9 we’re reported in last week). These are located on busy thoroughfares so I didn’t have time to frame a good shot but the scale of these is really something else, verging on mega-tile…

New have landed in !!!! I found these three with a friend while out scouting in

The amount of tar shrouding that remains on the face of the tiles indicates that these have only been deployed for a matter of weeks, maybe up to a month. They’re on a street subject to high traffic and significant amounts of direct sunlight so I would expect the tar to melt off very quickly relative to lower traffic and more shaded areas. We’ll keep an eye on these

A south Philly classic: water ice, illegal fireworks, and Toynbee tiles. This rare, credit card sized product of the original tile maker lives right by the Snyder subway station

Toynbee tile how-to from @CrimethInc

This is a tragically underexploited urban communication channel. It's cheap and permanent as hell!

I’m jealous that keeps his best stuff in but at least it’s just a quick train ride from

Looking forward to seeing some new stuff in when I’m up that way later this month. Always happy to answer /house of hades tile questions

I feel like I should mention on here that I wrote a pamphlet/zine about the as last week. It’s 16 pages with black and white photos. I’ve got a few copies left, drop me a line if you’re interested, I can ship from

This is an example of a brand new kind of tile that was reported to us this summer! This doesn’t really fit the style of the Original, , or so I’ve dubbed the creator “Company Man,” which is carved into the pink man on the left. He has another tile reported in South Philly somewhere, but I haven’t been able to find it and it may have been paved. Tile text in alt text.

Now that we’ve covered the basics of I’ll introduced a more advanced feature: the dial. A dial is really just a circular feature with one or more notches cut into it. In the picture below, there are three dials: red with a yellow notch, blue with a red notch, and yellow with a white (?) notch.

This tile is a prime example of what I call “laddering”. It’s those rectangular series of windows cut into the other tile features.

One of the projects I’m working on right now is building out a glossary of terms we can use to talk about better
