Perhaps somewhat fancifully, I will now think of the music that played for those five shadowy years as "a cousin from England."

Thanks for the further info!

The debut episode of "Cursed Dwellings" can be heard in this podcast, which also features Penny Dreadful and myself being interviewed (separately) by the podcast host, Rachel. Danielle speaks about the introduction of Barnabas storyline on DS, and I talk about the initial storyline of Strange Paradise. It was fun to do, and I'm happy with how it turned out.

May her spirit know peace. Ann's episode guide to DS, printed in one of the PomPress books, is the gold standard for episode guides to the series, at least those available in print sources.

Hi fans,

Sole Twins audio has launched "Cursed Dwellings," an online radio drama serial all about the origins of Victoria Winters. Episode one begins with Collinwood servant Betty Hanscombe's return to Collinsport, while a dying Jamison Collins summons his daughter Elizabeth to his room on an important matter concerning the Collins family secret.

I think the year is supposed to be around 1946. And a character from the Strange Paradise universe is due to make an appearance, too, in a subsequent installment.

Calendar Events / Announcements '25 I / THE MUNSTERS 1964 LP
« on: September 23, 2022, 10:23:31 PM »
I was excited to see this old LP released by Golden Records to promote The Munsters back in 1964. My parents gave it to my sister and me as a Halloween gift sometime either that year or in '65, I believe--it was a long time ago so I'm not sure of the year.

There are songs--it could be staged as a musical version of the show.

I was quite surprised a few months ago to see a "teaser trailer" for that new film version by Rob Zombie--it looked much better than I expected (I expected something unwatchably bad--it was actually pretty good).

Penny Dreadful will probably post about this soon--I'm excited to see that the new issue of Scary Monsters magazine has a horror host theme! It includes a lovely feature on Penny Dreadful with some great photos, as well as a sidebar all about "Terror at Collinwood."

cheers, Gothick

Another possibility is Mr. and Mrs. North. It ran in syndication for many years I believe.

Here's a selection of episodes:

That's a very cool still from Screen World. Love the expression on the Divine One's face. So delectably cat-like.

I just checked this site, and it says Barbara Steele has had to cancel. Barbara is in her 80s now--hope she is in good health and doing well.

Also interesting to learn from Jeff Kenny's interview that HBO has been using Seaview Terrace as their production base for another season of The Gilded Age. Because of this, the house has been taken off the market for the time being.

MB, this most recent episode where Danielle interviews Jeff Kenny will interest you in one detail. Around the 42 minute mark of the interview, Jeff reveals that he was the one who found the original film footage of that 1966 DS promo that was included in the Blu Ray release of that Dan Curtis documentary a few years back. I remember that that material was very exciting for you because you had a memory of having seen the promo way back when.

As Danielle comments, the fact that this turned up in a random eBay auction gives one hope that other long lost material could someday surface. You know hope springs eternal here for Grayson's Playtex commercial--as well as her GIRL TALK interview!

I think there's already a thread for this, but I'm not sure just where it is.

Online version of the KLS David Henesy interview. This version supposedly includes material not published in the mag (which I have not seen).

Interesting info about both the NoDS restoration and the continuing saga of the "Reincarnation" reboot. Good stuff!

I haven't seen any of Ansel Faraj's films, but I added the one about the Haunted House of Venice Beach to my Watch Later list on you tube. As Ansel mentions in the interview, this was the final work Chris Pennock ever performed in, and it's mentioned that he recites a piece of poetry that is VERY familiar to veteran DS fans. May his spirit know peace.

Our very own and much beloved Penny Dreadful has begun a new DS podcast: TERROR AT COLLINWOOD!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irvY8PAuueQ&list=PLkKN4d4hugdPuC5Fqbsr_xyehJzIwkZSF&index=94

There's a website for the podcast, too:

https://www.terroratcollinwood.com/

Themes from the first episode include Penny's memories of how she got into DS thanks to her extremely cool Uncle Vlad (!), her discovery of DS fandom in the 1980s, general thoughts about the series and its relationship to the genres of the Gothic tradition and supernatural terror in literature and film, and her conviction, which she argues brilliantly, that DS was NOT CAMP.

cheers, G.
