Hope you have a great one too Annie! 
I'm going to be an old curmudgeon and not even hand out candy this year. 
For some reason I'm just not in the mood for it -
that and I don't feel like hearing the dogs bark their heads off for 3 hours.

ITA Willie!  I was *just* thinking that yesterday as I watched the show "Scariest Places on Earth" marathon on the Family Channel.  And of course I taped Celebrity Paranormal Project and the night before taped the last part of a Top 100 countdown of the scariest movies ever made.

What is it about DS fans that we love stuff like this?!   [hall2_grin]

Well, I have a personal theory as to why I can't seem to get enough horror (gothic, DS-esque type vs those hideous slasher films of the 70' and 80's) and why these days I'm stuck on the ghost hunter shows.  I think, for me at least, it has something to do with working through "scary stuff" that has been following me around since childhood.  I can remember being totally freaked out by "Darby O'Gill and the Little People" with the Banshee and the flying horse-drawn hearse.  Then there was a children's book of James Whitcomb Riley poems my parents read to me with a story about Little Orphan Annie who was telling a tale to younger children by the firelight about a bratty little girl who was eventually "snatched away" by two big black shadowy things (anyone ever heard of shadow ghosts?).  I also had an older cousin who would tell his own version of Sleepy Hollow enhancing the part about the headless horseman just to creep out the little kids.  And, when I was about 7, I can remember begging this older boy who lived behind us to tell me ghost stories...which, being about 11 himself was always glad to have the opportunity to scare someone.  Dark Shadows came along when I was 11 - which I think was just the right age to get totally into it.  I think my sister was a little young for it because, though she watched then, it hasn't stuck with her as long as it did me.  That or she just doesn't have the same kind of demons trolling her.   [hall2_wink]

Thanks for the personal stuff, Bee!   May I call you Aunt Bee?   'Cause I really want to.   Don't worry, it'll pass.

Not only don't I have cable, but the signal booster went bust, and I live in the fade-out zone between two megalopolises, where nothing comes in too well.    What do I have on tape... there's DS of course, but I'm burnt out on it for awhile... the two Elvira movies plus one she hosted.   That's nice stuff to watch when you're pre-occupied with things going bust.

I have a horrible reworking of that Vincent Price-Diana Rigg movie... Theatre of Blood?  Anyway, it's a much more disgusting version and I already tried watching it again and my constitution isn't up for it ("Bloodsucking Freaks" from the mid 70s)
