Calendar Events / Announcements '25 I / Hocus Pocus 2 and DS
« on: October 01, 2022, 02:48:23 AM »
Is the scriptwriter for the Hocus Pocus sequel a DS fan?

Without giving too much away, a new character in Old Salem who is obsessed with witches is named Reverend Traske.  This causes his descendant, who resembles him exactly, to be the obsession of the witches in modern time.  Hmm.

Calendar Events / Announcements '25 I / Larry Storch at the 2007 Fest
« on: July 10, 2022, 07:30:57 PM »
Larry Storch, who passed away this past Friday at the age of 99, made an appearance at the 2007 DS Fest, surprising his fellow Broadway tour co-star from Arsenic and Old Lace.  I thought I might repost the links to Joeytrom's fantastic photos from the event:

Larry Storch showed up as a surprise guest for Jonathan Frid today.

I have pictures to work on and will post them tomorrow.
This is an easier way to do it:

There are several other mentions of Larry Storch on the board, including this one from Uncle Roger in 2016 about a Marie Wallace appearance and tribute to her friend:
Marie Wallace will be making an appearance at the Metropolitan Room in NYC on July 10th for a 7pm show as part of a tribute to Larry Storch. Larry is best known as Corporal Agarn from F Troop but also appeared with Jonathan Frid in Arsenic and Old Lace and with Marie in I Oughta Be in Pictures. He has also popped in at least one Dark Shadows festival. Other guests on the schedule include Eddie Deezen from Grease and celebrity impressionist Marilyn Michaels. Tickets run from $24 to $115, with the usual two drink minimum.  metropolitanroom.com

RIP

Calendar Events / Announcements '25 I / Forums cousin Raineypark
« on: January 28, 2022, 09:27:09 PM »
Very sad news to share:  Raineypark, a long-time DS cousin, former board moderator, and huge Willie Loomis fan passed away this month after a long illness. MB, Dom and myself are comforted that our dear friend is now at peace, and I know she's probably already hanging out in the ether with fellow New Yorker Karlen. [love9]

Calendar Events / Announcements '25 I / MacGyver at Greystone
« on: December 29, 2021, 02:21:18 AM »
"Deathlock," the Season 1 ep of MacGyver (the OS) that was filmed inside and on the grounds of Greystone, will air on H&I on Thursday, Dec. 30 at 2 pm in the East & West. Tremendous liberties were taken with the mansion's layout, and the star occasionally acts pretty stupid in this one.
