And as if that wasn't enough, Ira Levin also passed away this past Monday, aged 78. He wasn't involved with DS, but his blockbuster novel of paranoid horror, and then, the blockbuster film version, Rosemary's Baby debuted around the time DS was on the air, reflecting then-current tastes in that genre. The two movies based upon his Stepford Wives (the first being superior, IMO, and more faithful to the book) were filmed at Lockwood-Mathews Mansion, where part of House of Dark Shadows was also filmed.
