Anyone paying attention to the news recently will have realised that horrific events can either bring people together or drive them apart. An endearing example of the former happened when writer Brian Storm set up a Go Fund Me after hearing about the horrendous vehicular collision that band The Ghost Inside were involved in. The collision sadly claimed the life of their driver Greg Hoke and the band were also injured, some of them seriously.

Storm set up the fundraising account to help pay for the costly medical treatment for members of The Ghost Inside and the funeral costs for Greg’s shocked and grieving family. What he didn’t expect was for the metal scene to come together the way did with numerous artists and fans pledging funds, with Bring Me The Horizon pledging $10,000 and numerous fans sharing the campaign over social media.

To help The Ghost Inside go here

The Hoke family have also set up their own fundraiser here.
