I wish we could have had at least one episode of Willie as the hairdresser.
They could have intercut footage of Mrs. Stoddard running the vacuum cleaner at Collnwood while in full evening dress drag.
Hamilton arrives; Stokes invites him in--I've been expecting you. Hamilton apologizes for bothering him this time of night. I understand you're going to accuse me killing Claude North, says Stokes. I merely want to ask a few questions, says Hamilton. I think you'd do better protecting people against the insane accusations of a madman like Barnabas Collins, here, says Stokes, and drinks some more. Perhaps, says Hamilton, that's why I'm here--Mr. Collins, I have your story, now I want to speak to Mr. Stokes alone, if you don't mind. Of course, agrees Barnabas--if we can find the girl, she'll be able to give us the answers we need. And with a disdainful glance at Stokes, Barnabas departs through the hanging bead door. Are you aware, Mr. Stokes, of what Barnabas told me was your role in the incidents happening at Collinwood? Maniacal ravings, says Stokes, surely you don't take them seriously? Whether I do or not is beside the point, says Hamilton--I'm merely investigating a series of deaths. Did Barnabas tell you about the "life force" of the girl I kept in my storeroom back there? He mentioned it, says Hamilton. Stokes takes him into the room, which is now choked with furniture. Is this the room he told you about? queries Stokes, where I supposedly conducted all manner of mad experiments, transferring the life force of that girl into my daughter? I suppose this is the room, says Hamilton. I want to cooperate, says Stokes, but I must refuse to participate in such obvious idiocies. I have to admit, says Hamilton, your daughter died in a very strange manner. She had a heart condition, says Stokes, we were always afraid something like this might happen. If that's the case, says Hamilton, it will show up in the autopsy. AUTOPSY? repeats Stokes, now very upset.[/spoiler]
Well, look what made the list of The 25 greatest ghost films - "The Frighteners" (1996)
Wonderful photo of Laura today!
At the gazebo, Laura drops her snake bracelet on the ground when she goes to a pedestal with a weather vane contraption on it. She opens it and takes out her urn. When Nora calls to her, she hastily shoves it behind her back. Why didn't you come and say good night to me? asks the little girl. I was going to, Laura assures her--I came out here alone to look for something I hid here a long time ago. Is that what you have behind your back? asks Nora eagerly--"Can I see it?" Yes, says Laura, but it will mean nothing to you. She shows Nora the urn. The little girl is disappointed--oh, it's just an urn. Yes, agrees Laura. Why did you hide it? asks Nora. It's a secret, says Laura. I like secrets, says Nora. Go home to bed, says Laura--I'll come and tell you a wonderful story about the urn. Nora wants her mother to come back to the house with her.I want to stay here a while, says Laura--I can't explain why, but it's necessary and I will see you later. Nora promises to wait for her. After the child leaves, Laura lifts up the urn and calls to her master--hear me, bearer of warmth and fire, giver of life and destroyer, and grant through your flame the energy and sustenance I must have.[/spoiler]
Love today's shot. That might be my favorite of all the seances--Frid talks French, supported by Grayson and Thayer. I might have to get that episode out again over the holiday...
Stokes puts out candles as Julia and Barnabas watch. A table and three chairs has been set up. Stokes holds Julia's chair while she sits down. They touch fingertips and Stokes tells them to concentrate. He calls to Philippe Cordier, asking for a sign, calling to him to "Make your presence known!" We need your help as you need ours. The candle on the table blows out. Barnabas goes into a trance, which concerns Julia. Stokes tells her to leave him alone. Barnabas begins to speak in French; Stokes asks for English. I am Philippe Cordier, says the ghost, speaking through Barnabas. Stokes asks about Danielle Roget. "Danielle, mon amour," moans the spirit. Stokes asks if he was in love with her and he says, in French--accented English, "I AM in love with her, she is mine and has been taken away." Another man has taken her, I don't know his name, but he stole her spirit away. I am very lonely without her, and have come back to find her. Stokes asks if her spirit was in this room tonight, and Philippe says oui, but it's not here now. Where has it gone? asks Stokes. To another house, a house by the sea, replies Cordier. "Nicholas Blair's house!" bursts out Julia. "Danielle, I am coming for you, we will be together again," cries Philippe. Stokes begs him to reveal who lives in that house. "Wait for me, I will come for you. And when I find you, I will do what I have to do. Danielle, I will revenge your honor--I will kill the man who says he loves you.""Adam!" cries Julia. "He will die this night for what he has done for us--attendez! Attendez, mon amour, je viens, je viens! Danielle, c'est moi, Philippe. Je viens, mon amour!" Barnabas collapses on the table. Stokes says the spirit is gone, there is no chance to learn more--Julia should have kept silent, they were making remarkable progress. Julia is only interested in helping Barnabas sit up, making sure he's all right, checking his pulse. Julia heard all she needed to, she says, patting Barnabas awake.[/spoiler]
