Speaking of fun, here's something interesting. It's considered the first ever 'horror' movie. A French film, translated the The House of the Devil. It's from 1896. Think on that. Before Dracula was published. Before the turn of the last century. That's old.

Pumpkin in the window
Or All Hallow's Eve to us Christians, the kick off to All Saints' and All Souls Days. Here is a splendid little page from Fish Eaters on the holiday as some used to celebrate it. I mused on it here and here some years ago. This being nearing the end of my oldest boys' abilities to be around during these times, we'll be busy with the kids. My wife has the day off, and they all took time off and days to make sure they could be there for our youngest, if just one more time.

Is that video clip really from 1896? If so, cool!
ReplyDeleteYep, the best of my knowledge, you're looking at the oldest horror movie ever made!
