Sending Santor for the attic for letters in a trunk that he put there 100 years ago? Isn't Barnabas assuming a lot that NO one would have touched the trunk in 100 years?
What got me was the idea that there was only one old trunk in the attic.
I too like the zombie subplot, and David Selby is excellent as a zombie! His eyes are wide open, and his arms and legs seem a mile long as they move mechanically around.
I wish we could have seen Carl mixing the Quick Dry Cement up and pouring it out while Judith stood over him telling him to hurry up. By the way, when was concrete invented? Would they have known about it in the boondocks of Martinique in the early 1790s? What is the French for concrete? And does anybody else think it unlikely that Anthony George's Jeremiah would be fascinated by Barnabas's account of the dezombification ritual?
Today I made Laura Murdoch Radcliffe's gravestone the beginning of a list of Various Gravestones, with a view to starting a Prop Project topic on them sometime in the future. Of course, somebody else could beat me to it.
Golly, Rachel was thinking like me today! Very scary, that. "I like thinking about ghosts and witches and werewolves, but I don't believe in them. Quentin can't be dead. There must be another explanation." Yup, that's how I'd be thinking in the same situation. If a zombie picked me up and carried me to his grave, even with hands as cold as ice, I'd be looking for a non-supernatural explanation. It's odd, though, that Rachel should have mentioned werewolves.
