At the Old House, Harry Johnson runs and hides behind the curtains in Josette's room, after he hears Julia Hoffman coming upstairs. He had just poisoned Joe Haskell's medicine while he was sleeping.

He's growing more scared, and is really terrified when he sees a disembodied hand groping for him!  Harry turns away, but the hand follows him, getting larger.  Harry finally sits on the sofa, screaming.

This was my favorite part. What a trip! I also like the part afterwards, when Harry returns to Collinwood, and he's standing outside the doors. He looked so cute! I always love seeing Craig Slocum. Nice pics of him too, thanks Robin!  :)

I recall Gerard Stiles being in the cemetery too, for no good reason.  :o

IIRC, Mrs. Curtis saw Slocum in a play or something and liked him.


I would sure like to know what play it was, and what it was about him that fascinated her. I am glad she recommended him!  :)

I guess Harry needed a place to stay after he got out of prison, and what better place than Collinwood? After all his Mom works there. He managed to get jobs there too, and got paid by Carolyn, then Nicholas Blair. I guess the point of the Harry character was that he became a henchman for Nicholas Blair. He also catches Amy in David's room, making contact with the ghost of Quentin on an old disconnected telephone. That was a Shadows milestone. The writers left out the character of Harry too much. He should have been in Mrs. Johnson's dream, during the dream curse. There also should have been more scenes with him and Mrs. Johnson, and maybe a girlfriend, would have been nice. Also, more info about his background, and certainly a much better ending for the character, instead of just vanishing from the show. I would like to have seen more of Harry Johnson (Craig Slocum).  :)

Yes, BRAVO for you Cheryl that you so strongly support Mr. Slocum.


Thanks! I cherish the memory of him.  :)

Hopefully, they will find a cure for this awful disease very soon.


There is increasing hope that diabetes and its complications can be cured as significant research progress has been made. I hope and pray for the best for John Karlen, and also for permanent, positive control of his diabetes. At the bottom of my post, it says "Walk To Cure Diabetes". This is a worldwide team building fund raiser, I am involved in regarding Craig Slocum. In honor of him, I am a member of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International, www.jdrf.org.

I participate in the annual Walk To Cure Diabetes, with the Nevada Chapter here in Las Vegas. It is held in September. Craig Slocum passed away on September 12, 1978. My funds raised, go in memory of him. I also go to the annual Diabetes Festival, held in October, at the Diabetes Treatment Center in one of the hospitals here. They piloted a cookbook project. Bon Appetite!

I have a number of books on diabetes. I knew very little about the disease until a few years ago. Thanks for the info about John Karlen, I will send him a get-well card. While there is no cure for diabetes as yet, it can be controlled. The main goal of diabetes treatment is to keep blood glucose levels as close to the normal range as possible. The treatment used to control blood glucose levels depends on the type of diabetes a person has.

Even with a bad hair day, Harry still looks cute! I love his red hair. It looks so soft and shiny. When the light shines on his hair, it really looks good, makes me want to touch it!  ;)

I agree that Grayson Hall did the best voiceovers.  :)

Either he wasn't suppose to be in that scene or he was running to go and find BATHIA MAPES!!


VAM said she should get together with Harry Johnson, so maybe she did!  ;D

could Mr. Slocum have flubbed or forgotten more lines?  Harry's constant "umms" and long pauses (i'm searching for the line. .) drove me insane!


I think this is being greatly exaggerated. He made it through the scene, and kept focused. I love all of Craig Slocum's scenes, and this wasn't as bad as people are making it out to be, and he sure looked cute!!  :-* Pardon my exaltation, but I think Craig Slocum's the best. I just love him.  ;) I hate to see him represented disproportionately.

Mascara I hate, and only wear it for the extreme dressy occassion.  


I hate mascara too, I quit wearing it in the 80's, and I don't miss it! I think it should be more appropriately named messcara.

I always love to see Craig Slocum. :-* There's some outstanding scenes coming up this week, that I am really looking forward to. Thanks MB, seeing the montage is one of the great things about this board. It's nice to see pics.  :)
