Garnet Night: Tarn House :: You'll Like My Mother :: Daughter of Despair [and lookalikes]

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2010/03/tarn-house-youll-like-my-mother.html

Thursday, March 11, 2010. Tarn House : You'll Like My Mother : Daughter of Despair [and lookalikes]. For all you sons-in-law out there: The 2nd one! P I think the model on the cover of "Daughter of Despair" looks a lot like Neve Campbell ala late '90s. I've also seen a cover wherein the model looks very much like Nicole Kidman, Claudia Schiffer, etc. - celebs who were tots when the cover art was created, if even yet born.

Garnet Night: February 2010

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

Saturday, February 27, 2010. Crow Hollow: Cover Scan. This is an unusually pretty cover, despite the lack of excessive detail and neutral colors. It's the hint of pale wintry blueness (despite her filmy sleeveless plunge neckline gown! The murder of crows sitting on a black gnarled tree branch, the STARK RED LETTERING above.it works for me. Simplicity in beauty I guess. I don't own this cover and found its scan at Fantasticfiction.uk. Saturday, February 20, 2010. Two Novel Covers [small]. These books are...

Garnet Night: June 2009

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Movie: The Lost Boys [1987]. Hi Karswell: I'm fine, thanks for the Comment in the most recent post. Been doing a ton of non-fiction reading and involvement with real-life social activities. I had a crush on Michael and still do. Dwyane also caught my eye. And wasn't Star fantastically beautiful? And who could forget Max and the spaghetti dinner fiasco? And here's Michael's reaction to your a] never having seen the film (incomprehensible) or b] you didn't like it:. Http:/ www.g...

Garnet Night: April 2010

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 30, 2010. The Bat [When It Flies, Someone Dies! Recently I purchased (used.of course) a copy of "The Bat." Later I was recalling Agnes Moorehead, and a film of hers I've owned about 10 years: "The Bat" - with Vincent Price co-starring. I watched the film upon buying it but haven't since rewatched. I wondered if the film were based on the book (a paperback pulp Gothic? What were the chances? Nil) and checked the Internet Movie Database: Sure enough! Saturday, April 3, 2010. Someone tumblr'd ...

Garnet Night: January 2010

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Friday, January 22, 2010. Bride of Darkness, by Margery Lawrence [1967]. Correct cover art, different title and author. This book's title is in bold white letters at upper left-hand corner. The true color is a sinister bile green with mossy hightlights. In the lower right-hand corner are these words in white italics: "Beneath the lovely facade of a modern young wife lurked an evil - as ancient and indestructible as time.". Despite the shocked utterance accompanied by fainting on the woman's part, despite...

Garnet Night: July 2009

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

Friday, July 31, 2009. In Memory of Colleen: 1963 - 2009. Cousin, you are remembered and loved. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Movie: Dracula Has Risen from the Grave [1968]. This is the cover on my DVD box. Another image. Looks like His Undeadness has candy corn fangs. :-p. That last almost looks comedic, makes you want to caption it: "I said I like STEAK! Roof scenes are weird in the film. Monday, July 27, 2009. Movie: Hide and Seek [2005]. Bought this film yesterday and very much enjoyed it. I could make...

Garnet Night: October 2011

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html

Friday, October 7, 2011. The Midnight Hearse, by Elliott O'Donnell. It began with this title. Found at local used/rare bookstore. Got it for $1.00. What's so great about that? O'Donnell's books are rare in the U.S. - and *pricey*. Most UK sellers (Ebay or Amazon) refuse to sell to Americans. More to follow (scans and comments). I am definitely an Elliott O'Donnell (1872 - 1965) fan. Ps: It's been nearly 1.5 years since I last posted. Life has been difficult. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Midnight Hears...

Garnet Night: February 2013

http://garnetnight.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, February 7, 2013. First off: In May 2012 I signed onto Twitter. Next day I clicked "Follow" on a couple of celeb authors. Took a coffee break. Come back into home office to see I've got a new Follower on Twitter. Wondered who that could be. Yes, *THE* Hellraiser, Thief of Always, Damnation Game, Abarat, Imajica, Weaveworld, Lord of Illusions, Candyman, Nightbreed CLIVE BARKER! I was PUMPED for days! I've been a fan since 1987. Otherwise I'm back on Blogger after MUCH fenagling. *smirk*. In fond...
