Wow. Love the dress and love her in it! Looks as if she's wearing rose ornaments in her hair, too!

Thanks!

I had the same experience getting on the Board today that Midnite reported. It asked me to log in but because Chrome has saved the log-in and password, I just clicked "log in" and immediately I was taken to the refreshed page.

As Grayson was wont to say, "Who can figure anything?"

Just reporting that I've been by to visit a couple of times today, and I haven't had to log in at all! Progress!

Thanks again MB for all your hard work!

I also had to log in again even though I checked the Forever box earlier. Ah well. It could be much worse.

Lovely to see our home looking more familiar again with the theme and the photos! And you've posted a gorgeous shot of Grayson from hoDS, too, for today's show! Awesome!

Oddly, the "Monster Kids" board for Classic Horror Film fans also just had a move, but it seems as if they didn't lose as much. It sounds as if the people who took care of their move did their homework better than our hosts here did.

I'm very sorry for the losses, but it's fabulous that you have been able to restore so much in such a short time, Mysterioso Darling! As always, I'm so impressed by the quality you and Midnite make such a foundational part of our experience here.

cheers, G.

Dear Cousins,

After getting error messages all day yesterday. today I was finally able to log in here. I had viewed this new location some days ago but there was nothing here except something that I think was written by a robot.

Hope folks can check in on this thread or elsewhere... I feel the need to know I'm not all alone in the Secret Room with the coffin and the candles that never burn out, even after 200 years...

Last night I was making one of my periodic attempts to find a copy of the 1966 film THE HAND OF NIGHT, alt title THE BEAST OF MOROCCO, and I found this clip of the title credits and opening dream sequence here:

Reminiscent of DS?

I think you're all finished with your project now, but in case you are still following this thread, you might find this of interest:

Beautiful shots of beautiful Don Briscoe. I bet his pajama pants fell down frequently while they were filming that.

This scene was, IMO, based on one in the 1966 Hammer film DRACULA, PRINCE OF DARKNESS, featuring the incredible Barbara Shelley. But I think this sequence is more effective--and more brutal.

That's good to hear, Josette. I will try clearing my cache again when time permits and see if that does the trick.

Fans,

Here's a short clip of Thayer David in a scene with Sylvester Stallone in ROCKY.

Thayer is great, as always.

Wow is right! I moused over to get the detailed look, but the true beauty of the workmanship must surely only be realized in person, especially walking around the painting in good lighting and seeing all those colors flashing through and around the portrait.

Great find!

It's still happening. I can't use a cached or bookmarked link to access the Forums; I have to search in google and click on the regular link there. Otherwise, if I use the cached link, I just get the blank white screen.

I use Chrome, so perhaps it is an issue specific to Chrome and Firefox (the other browser I've been using recently).

Dear God, Don Briscoe was a beautiful man. Sighhhh....

I'm not at all surprised about the situation with the Dan Ross book, given that there's no way he could have seen the completed film when he was working on the manuscript.

And he really churned those things out quickly, though the DS film book does show a somewhat higher level of skill, or at least such as my impression. I'll never forget the mention of him typing the entire final chapter of one of his "books" in the back seat of his station wagon in front of the post office... he had to have the packet stamped on that day according to the terms of his contract, I seem to recall...

Patti, Naomi dies in episode 458, and in the next episode, Joshua tells Barnabas his mother has died. It's near the end of the 1795 storyline.

Sam Evans was hospitalized as a result of injuries from Adam's attack on him at home. I think Sam may have died as a result of a heart attack from the stress of the dream. That episode where he was trying to tell Vicki the dream and Stokes was present was the very first episode of DS I ever saw!
