A blood-curdling affair
This time, Neil Gaiman makes the news for worst reason. The artist has in fact just been accused by several women of horrific sex crimes. Please note, the rest of this article contains violent and disturbing descriptions concerning the facts with which he is accused.
In last JulyNeil Gaiman was accused by two women sexually assaulted. Although no legal action appears to have been taken so far, several of his projects have nevertheless been discreetly postponed or canceled. Vulture published a lengthy article today on new complaints against Neil Gaiman. Chilling testimonies carried by the voice of Scarlett Pavlovichwho met Neil Gaiman in New Zealand. Scarlett Pavlovich was first nanny of Neil Gaiman’s childrenand became friends with Amanda Palmerthe author’s ex-wife. Scarlett Pavlovich described one of Neil Gaiman’s attacks against her on the microphone of Vulture. Be careful, the following is shocking:
I mean, he put his fingers straight up my ass. He then tried to put his penis in it. I directly said “no, no”. Then he tried to rub his penis against my breasts. Again I obviously rejected it. Then he asked me if he could cum on my face. I told him no again, but he did it anyway. He then asked me to call him “master”. He asked me to be a “good little girl.”
Other accusations relate that Gaiman used butter as a lubricant to force Scarlett Pavlovich to have non-consensual anal sex. The report of Vulture also reports that:
Neil Gaiman allegedly ordered her to perform oral sex on him while watching the first season of The Sandman. He allegedly pushed his penis into Pavlovich’s mouth with such force that she vomited on him. Then he allegedly told her to eat the vomit in her lap and lick the couch.
And that would only be the tip of the iceberg. Other women, aged between 18 and 20 years old, joined the confessions of Scarlett Pavlovich. These women in question are fans that he would have met during conventions. Kendra Stout explains, for example, that Neil Gaiman allegedly forced her to have sex particularly violent. He allegedly hit him with his belt. Kendra Stout then asked him to stop this practice, to which he responded: “it’s my only way to enjoy.” Stout has it too accused of raping her after she refused to have sex with him.
For now, no legal action has been taken. Neil Gaiman continues to deny these accusations outright. For now, Netflix always planned to release season 2 of The Sandmanexpected during this year 2025. It has now been almost a year since this type of testimony has been coming out regularly against the author… So this is another case to be continued…
