Greetings classic monster fans. It’s been a very long, weird and trying year for all of humanity. One things for sure, despite the many set backs that we are seeing in the world. I’m still glad that I live in a country and state where I’m allowed my freedoms. I stopped writing and producing monsters after midnight after I went into a slump (depression) about everything that was going on in The world. It appeared to me that we were almost living in a John Carpenter movie. And I still feel that way. I was also fairly disenchanted with certain things coming from Hollywood and disgusted with the politics that flooded the movie industry. So I stopped writing, let the blog lapse, shut down our Facebook page, left several online classic horror groups and sold off two thirds of my classic horror collection. You might say, I was just about done.

I’m originally from Chicago, and I’m a huge Svengoolie fan. So I still stopped by METV every Saturday evening and got classic monster fix. I also belong to a Svengoolie fan page online. I go on the Sven page a chat with fellow Sven fans while watching the movie nearly every saturday. I also stayed in touch with an online friend, Stefanie Yates. She is also known as Carlita from the online TV duo horror host team Drac and Carlita.

I began to see Stefanie posting snipits about various classic monster movies. I liked her personal touch. So I asked her if I could post these on monsters after midnight. And gave me permission to do so. Stefanie was an inspiration to me me. I appreciate her friendship and strength. On another note, despite being inactive most of 2021. Monsters After Midnight still managed to get around 3000 readers who stopped by. To our fans. I say thank you.

Monsters After Midnight

My film for today is “The Raven” starting Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff.
Next to The Black Cat, it’s one of the best things that Bela and Boris did together.
I always wonder, however, why Jack Pierce did such a BAD job on Karloff’s face 🤔 ???

And goodness!
Bela is every bit BELA— sinister, vengeful, romantic, dominating, and full of his usual sarcasm, accompanied by that little smirk.
He’s in VERY good form here.
And Louis Friedlander (Lew Landers) directed both these fellas beautifully.
See what I mean by clicking the link below…. 🖤😏

My classic horror film for today is another of my absolute favorites—
The Phantom of the Opera (1925) starring Lon Chaney, Mary Philbin, and Arthur Edmund Carewe.
I remember the first time I saw this movie, the scene where Erik takes a stroll underwater to “send away the caller” really struck me. And fortunately, the print I saw of it had the most beautiful rooftop scene that I have ever found. The print quality and color was fantastic.

Well, you’ll get to see that gorgeous rooftop scene, if you like, on Halloween eve.
We will be showing our presentation of “Phantom of the Opera” (complete with a newly arranged score by me) on Transylvania Tonight October 30th at 10PM EST at http://www.themonsterchannel.com 🖤

You can watch it online or on Roku.
For Roku, just go to your Account page, scroll down to “add channel with a code” and type in CX9QHP

I hope you will join us for our presentation of “Phantom of the Opera”. I think it’s going to be another great show, and I really did pour so much of my heart into scoring the film.
I really hope that you will like it.

Creepy Classics & Monster Bash News!A Creepy Crawlers ChristmasThere’s one Christmas that comes back to me with a whiff of pungent hot plastic goop. Yes, indeed, Creepy Crawlers for Christmas. One of the best Christmas gifts ever for a creepy monster loving kid.We lived on Pine Street in Grove City, PA when I got the Creepy Crawlers set complete with the little electric oven and stock colored goop. In case (heaven forbid) you don’t know what Creepy Crawlers are…it’s a set where you could make bugs, spiders, snakes, bats, worms and such in multi-colors. You got metal molds to fill up with “Plasti-Goop.” You cooked them on a small oven (The Thing-Maker) and pried them out with pins, forks or paper clips. Presto, a little rubber bug.You could make loads of them and Mom and Dad could get you refills of goop at the store. What a dream-come-true. Making icky bugs to plant around the house, in baby sister’s room, or to smuggle to school. Even trade ones with other cool kids.I’ll never forget that first plunge in Creepy Crawlers on a Christmas Day in about 1966. It was in the kitchen, on the Formica kitchen table with the curved chrome corners. My dad and I whipping up those rubber bugs in bright yellows, reds and life-like black for spiders and ants. That strong, strong smell of Plasti-Goop rubber. Burning my finger on a not quite totally cooked lizard, the plastic still molten on part of it. Ouch.A later Christmas, after we had moved to State College, PA would bring the similar “Fright Factory” with even cooler monstrous things to make with Plasti-Goop. Shrunken heads, fangs, eyeballs, scars. Oh man, someone at Mattel Toys knew exactly what would bring joy to a young Monster Kid. The memories to last a lifetime.Ron Adams Ligonier, PA December 2020On with the show, now let’s check out the new cool stuff and classic monster news…Support MONSTER BASH with Creepy ClassicsCreepy Classics is the powerhouse that drives the MONSTER BASH Conferences.

Creepy Classics & Monster Bash News!Witnessing Santa Claus Vs. The DevilWhen I was a little kid in the mid 1960s it was common for parents to drop off their children at the local theater for a matinee on the weekend without worries. Mom could get shopping done while the little one was entertained with a cartoon, maybe a Three Stooges short and a “children’s movie.”The matinee movies I remember seeing were re-issues of THE 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD, THE MAGIC SWORD, TARZAN’S GREATEST ADVENTURE and the wonderful JOURNEY TO THE BEGINNING OF TIME. But the ones that really scared me were films based on classic fairy tales imported from Mexico and Germany…dubbed in English and packaged to appear like Disney movies. Producer/distributor K. Gordon Murray was one of the main forces behind these imports. From the movie posters and newspaper ads they appeared to Mom as just cute little movies. Well, they weren’t.These imports, dubbed in English, were much grittier and out right scary versions of LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD, HANSEL & GRETEL, RUMPLESTILTSKIN, SNOW WHITE AND ROSE RED and CINDERELLA. But, look out, for the holiday season there was SANTA CLAUS (imported from Mexico). One of the most memorable movies I ever saw when I was young.Mom dropped me off so she could probably do holiday shopping. This was 1965 or 1966. My baby sister was probably dropped off at my grandparents. But there I was, in a theater filled with other kids waiting for a cinematic assault that would scar me for life.SANTA CLAUS (shot in 1959) was in color and featured a presiding Santa in a mystical cloud hovering above the world. There was a mechanical Roto-Rooter like robotic snake with an electronic eye on the end that could see into kids rooms while they slept. Santa had slave children from all different countries in his workshop (though they seemed perfectly happy). There was Merlin the Wizard employed in Santa’s lab. Large lips that moved on a machine that ratted out bad kids. A little girl that dreamed of giant dolls with dead eyes…inspired by a guilt complex as she had thought about stealing a doll. A little boy was left home alone on Christmas eve while his parents went out to a holiday party. It was all the stuff of nightmares.Worst of all, the film took us into the bowels of Hell. There a red, evil devil called “Pitch” was set-up to return to the earth’s surface and stop Santa Claus and corrupt children. Which he proceeds to do through the movie…including setting vicious dogs loose to chase Santa up a tree at night.This Christmas horror flickered across the big screen as I sat, transfixed through its duration. Mom had no idea what she subjected me to. Shell shocked kids would shamble out of the theater squinting in the afternoon sun. They would not dare to ever be bad again, lest Satan send a minion up from Hades to torture them. Now the movie did have a happy ending…but what a trip it was down a dark path.I finally located this film on video sometime in the late 1980s. While it was (and is) scary and twisted…I am quite fond of it. It helped make me a monster movie fan that loved to be scared and to appreciate some mighty weird films.SANTA CLAUS (1959) is now a holiday staple in the Adams house.Ron Adams Ligonier, PA December 2020On with the show, now let’s check out the new cool stuff and classic monster news…For The Season…Mexico’s SANTA CLAUSYep, it’s here on both crystal clear Blu-Ray or Re-Mastered DVD for holiday enjoyment.

Creepy Classics & Monster Bash News!Holiday Shopping The Toy Aisles…For MonstersIt’s November, Thanksgiving and KING KONG are on the way…more on that next week. There’s that cold wind and it feels like the holidays. It feels like shopping.A tradition when I was a kid…the family loading in the car and heading out for holiday shopping. Malls were relatively new. And that’s exactly where we were heading. I was bundled in my brown winter coat and a Charlie Brown styled hat with ear flaps. My sister in a white, with flowers print, hooded coat. Dad at the wheel of the blue Chevrolet and mom commandeering the shopping plans from the navigator seat.In the mall, Grants Department store was where the action was. This store had aisles and aisles of toys. I was released loose to cruise. My eyes beamed in on Creepy Crawler sets, Monster Makers, dinosaur sets, and ahhhh, amidst all the airplane and car models…the monster model kits! I scanned and scanned locating monsters, creepy things, weird board games and comic book characters like The Hulk and Thor on sparkle paint sets. I don’t know how Mom and Dad put up with the endless list of monsters I wanted (well, needed…as I would beg) for Christmas.Outside of the Toy Department there were two other locations I would gravitate to. Over in the photo and camera department there was a display of 8mm movies that featured condensed versions of the films I loved. Even though I didn’t have a projector (too expensive of a gift to hope for), I still liked looking. The other place was the pet department. There in aquariums were turtles, chameleons and baby alligators. Just cool to watch.Sooner or later I’d be dragged by one parent to shop for others. I now realize this ploy was so that the other parent could shop for me and my sister. I get it, I get it…now. My allowance, with help from the parents, would assist me in getting a wallet for my dad, maybe a colorful fashion scarf for mom, a Colorform set for my sister.It was quite the Saturday of shopping. An excitement that I can remember more than many of the gifts. Back at home there was the Sears and Montgomery Ward catalogs. Ready for my finely aimed pen to circle all those cool toys in there.It wasn’t the gifts, though I loved them at the time. It was the experience and excitement of holiday shopping with family.Ron Adams Ligonier, PA November 2020On with the show, now let’s check out the new cool stuff and classic monster news…Photo courtesty of Monster Bash’s M.
