What? No Spawn!?

The 15 Best Dead and Undead Comic Heroes and Villains

Back From (or To) The Dead

So how is everybody?
No I didn't die or anything, just went into the usual post Halloween funk.
To be honest, 'funk' is not the proper word.
I'll just say, Christmas with a 1 year old is a blast but nothing really appropriate for a Halloween blog.
So, I lost track of things, hope you can forgive me.
I did NOT, however, miss the incredible displays this year.
This was an inspired year for almost everybody!
So...guess it's time to get back in the swing of things.

Happy Halloween

Returned from the wedding with aching feet. Watched some of the Addams Family marathon before Monster Baby went to bed.
Not a single ToT'er.

Drove back up to my Mom's to drop off the tux and listened to 'Inner Sanctum' and 'Lights Out' and the Halloween Stomp CD.

About to settle down for the night and let 'Bride of Frankenstein' usher me to dreamland.

Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween.

Night.

Classic TV - Countdown to Halloween Oct 27

The Examiner has a Classic TV countdown of the 25 scariest episodes.
Funny thing about Halloween episodes. My top 5 fav The Addams Family's Halloween episodes are a see-saw. Not even close to the best episodes. Conversely the MASH Halloween episode 'Trick or Treatment' one of the best of the series.

Took monster Baby to a farm/pumkin patch yesterday. That look is par.

Charles Addams A Cartoonist's Life

I love this book. I read many biographies, I rarely read them more than twice. I've read this one 4 times. Addams was such a fascinating character and his life rang of a Carey Grant movie. HE, of course was no Grant, but the 'plot' of his life and attitude was like a Topper sequel.

He was Gomez Addams in many ways. Making a living, a very comfortable living, drawing cartoons he had the eccentric style and carefree attitude of Gomez. It wasn't all wine and roses, of course, but in general his attitude was inspiring.
