The Supernatural Tales Blog: June 2015
http://suptales.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
The Supernatural Tales Blog. Tuesday, 30 June 2015. Here's a fascinating article. About a piece of folklore that has genuine staying power. The Jersey Devil said to haunt the Pine Barrens of New Jersey has been sort-of around for far longer than Nessie (who was first reported in the Thirties and then given a retrospective, thoroughly bogus 'history'). There's something comical about the idea of a monster, of course - when you're not alone in a forest or indeed sitting at home in the dark. Actually entitl...

The Supernatural Tales Blog. Friday, 31 October 2014. Hallowe'en Movies 3. What scares you? 1 The Last Broadcast (1998). 2 The Grudge (Ju-On) (2002).

Anyone who loves old Hammer films as I do will be familiar not only with the big stars, but also the regulars of the supporting cast. Among the latter was Miles Malleson. A stalwart of the theatre who became a familiar face in British films in the decades after WW2. He was often cast as comic relief in the role of butler, undertaker, petty bureaucrat etc. He certainly looked the part, as you can see. Coincidentally, on Frid...

The Supernatural Tales Blog: September 2014
http://suptales.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
The Supernatural Tales Blog. Tuesday, 30 September 2014. Is an interesting term. For cinephiles, it covers the Seventies British horror films The Wicker Man, Witchfinder General,. And Blood on Satans Claw. As a telephile (if thats a word) it also embraces rather a lot of Nigel Kneales output - especially the episode Baby from the classic series Beasts. Those dramas are all products of the Seventies, as was the Play for Today Robin Redbreast. And the cult classic Pendas Fen. Which brings me to The Loney.
