Did You Know: There was a Dark Shadows on TV in 1950!!!!
« on: September 12, 2009, 11:17:14 PM »
I just got the 6 disc box set Suspense~~The Lost Episodes. This forerunner of Twilight Zone, One Step Beyond & Hitchcock Presents aired live on CBS TV from 1949-1954 following a 20 year radio run. It was never aired again and was considered lost until all 90 eps were found in a vault~~these are well preserved kinescopes.

Boris Karloff appears in several episodes. Bela Lugosi, John Carradine and Peter Lorre appear in others, as do youthful looking "kids" like Jack Lemmon, Walter Matthau, Anne Bancroft & Cloris Leachman.

The Sept 19 1950 episode stars William Redfield & Ruth Mc Devitt~~I swear it's called Dark Shadows!! I'll be watching it tonight! (-:

Now if we could only find the 1914 silent film titled The Mystery of Grayson Hall~~a real, lost film listed on IMDB!

Holy sinister, Batman! Wherever did you find Suspense? I want it NOW!
I get a kick out of these guys who think they're so clean, when all the time they're trying to cover up their dirt.
