En route to the dark side

 


The Crypt Jam (Tales From the Crypt)

Oh, such cheesie goodness ... 

Remember the Crypt Keeper?

He was a ripoff of memorable mid-century radio shows like Inner Sanctum and Lights Out.  

This promo clip is a bit much.

YouTube tries to scare me

The all-powerful YouTube algorithm noticed  Halloween tunes here in recent days.

It sent the mystic spookshow above to help.

The video was shot in the Tusta mountains of Norway. Wardruna is a Norse band.

The Crown: "Mummy? Are you okay?"

The first four episodes of The Crown's new season center on Princess Diana, a psychodrama richly exploited in the teaser above.
