    William Castle’s goofy b-movie classic starring the late, great Vincent Price. (The OG) House on Haunted Hill is just good fun.

      Top image: of course she’s screaming, hot wax is running down her hand! Who holds a lit candle like that, except in a Hollywood publicity still?

    Would you like a sedative?

    Me and my friends watch this about once a year as tradition.

      Yes! This movie has been remade a couple of times but Vincent Price is absolutely the best. This film is a horror classic!

        Have you listened to The Saint? Classic radio, Vincent Price plays a suave retired thief. So much fun, no spooky, just very light amounts of banter and minor crime fighting in between. That’s how I get my fix. John Hagadorn has them on his podcast of old time detective radio, in exchange for donations.

          Was not even aware of their existence but now I’m intrigued! Old time detective radio! Wow, thank you!

          Goes to look John Hagadorn up.

            “1001 Radio Crime Solvers” is the title, but there are at least 6 similar pods that are worth following.
