We’re so thrilled to see you again. Even this guy is filled with exuberance can’t you tell!

It’s now three days since we’ve all got caught up in the ballyhoo, gimmickry, thrills and chills of the wonderful man that is William Castle! Today- I’m pleased (as Ruth at the house on haunted hill would say) as ‘Scotch and…’ to offer you these fabulous bloggers for your consideration…

So stay where you are… don’t go anywhere just yet

Lindsey at The Motion Pictures is going to get all Macabre (1958) on us also…

Macabre '58 — **Ellen Corby in William Castle’s Macabre ’58**

With great anticipation being a musician myself, I offer you ‘Goregirl’s Dungeon on YouTube: Alex North & Vic Mizzy‘
