If any one cultural experience changed my life, that collection was probably it. I read the same colection again this summer snd it still holds up and THE YELLOW WALLPAPER is as creepy as anything.Anders Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06164550847416446757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-6623327676833593602013-10-11T18:41:55.217-04:002013-10-11T18:41:55.217-04:00George next week, eh?

I saw a dreadful production of the play version in Chicago and like Jeff was bored and never once frightened. To me it's incredibly cliche and old hat.<br /><br />Nothing by M.R. James listed there? For shame. "Oh Whistle and I'll Come to You" deserves to be on everyone's list of best ghost stories. A true classic, practically the epitome of a well told ghost story. Maybe you<br />have not read him yet.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-86931417522295155182013-10-11T09:49:29.227-04:002013-10-11T09:49:29.227-04:00I guess I didn't expect "Beloved" to...I guess I didn't expect "Beloved" to go along with that group.

In fact both of us were so bored by it we walked at intermission. The TV version left us just as cold. I can't explain why but it never got to me in the way it was meant to do.<br /><br />he movie that scared me was Polanski's REPULSION.<br /><br /><br />Jeff M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33110302.post-27929137192187614832013-10-11T09:21:15.063-04:002013-10-11T09:21:15.063-04:00Patti, I posted an FFB two days ago titled HELL IS...Patti, I posted an FFB two days ago titled HELL IS TOO CROWDED by Jack Higgins.
