Crazy middle school librarian! (all views my own) ❤️ BOOKS! 📚 Classic Movies! 🎥 Peter Cushing, Ray Harryhausen, vintage horror & musicals 🥰
Watching Barbara Stanwyck and John Lund in 'No Man of Her Own' (1950)
A pregnant woman, rejected by her boyfriend reluctantly assumes the identity of a bride killed in a train crash and moves in with her rich in-laws....but she's not the only one who knows she's lying 📽

Seven years ago today, I was hosting a remembrance event & had a crazy idea to work alongside the Victoria Tunnels & have an author read a section of their war related book 55 feet underground. Who would be mad enough to help me? It was always the legend that is @dansmithauthor.bsky.social

I love "It's a Wonderful Life" BUT
What is the worst thing that could have happened to Mary without George?

Oh yes! Lose all her personality, liveliness, fun & fashion sense and become a Librarian!
Heaven forbid! 🙄📚

Halloween wouldn't be complete without watching my all-time favourite witch movie, 'The Undead' (1957)
It's mystical, magical, gothic, has more fog than a London murder mystery novel and stars the wonderful Allison Hayes.
All excellent reasons to watch

Starting my Halloween viewing with the 1944 comedy horror, 'One Body Too Many'. Starring Bela Lugosi & Jack Haley.
Picture a stormy night, relatives gathered in a mansion, secret passages & the reading of a will & you've got this fun horror/mystery movie 📽 👻

An excellent write-up about the fantastic film 'Night of the Demon' (1957) by 'RetroRevelation'
Definitely worth a read if you're a fan of the film 📽

Watched Tim Burton's 'Frankenweenie' (2012) this morning for the first time & actually was pleasantly surprised! I knew nothing about it but I wish I had seen it before with all the references to the classic Universal horror movies. Would recommend! Great fun! #HalloweenCountdown

Tonight's movie is one of my favourites, 'The Return of the Vampire' (1943) starring Bela Lugosi, Frieda Inescort, Nina Foch, Miles Mander & Roland Varno.
When a stake is removed from a vampire, he begins unleashing his bloodthirsty revenge!
An underrated gem! #HalloweenCountdown
