Happy Birthday To One Cool Ghoul

Hey Y'all!

zacherlegreen.jpg

Today is the birthday of one of my all-time favorite maniacs! 

Mr. John Zacherle (AKA John Zacherley, AKA Zacherle, AKA Zacherely, AKA Roland, AKA he's gotta lotta names!) is one of the original, and arguable one of the most influential Horror Hosts.

Yours GHOULY first saw great Zacherle, on glorious VHS (The CHosen Format, as I like to call it), many many moons ago.  And I'd be a lying mongrel if I didn't admit I was instantly starstruck!  Horror, humor, great skits, and of corpse - great ol' movies!  Not to mention his forays in music and radio (check out his hit novelty song, Dinner With Drac, below)!

Hell - he's largely responsible for the ridiculous mess I find myself in, now!

Going strong n' sinister since 1954, Mr. Zacherle celebrates his 97th birthday today!  Let's all give a Chiller Cheer to the Original Cool Ghoul!

7 Days To Halloween, Halloween, Halloween...

"...Sil-ver Shamrock!"

Hoo, boy! This Halloween has been one fer the books! 

Over the past few months, yours Ghouly has been one busy beast! In addition to revivin' the show, the Creeps and I have been making the rounds at the local Horror Conventions, doing interviews, and getting started on some Top-Secret Projects.  

We've been SO busy, in fact, that we've almost forgotten to enjoy ourselves!

Fangfully, we've still managed to find time fer some fun and frivolity. And here, with only a week left of the Halloween season, we'd thought we'd share some of our favorite things we've enjoyed this Frightful Fall. So, without further adieu: 

1.)  Pumpkin Spice Donuts. 

Yer ol' uncle may not be yer typical "basic bitch", as the kids say... But seriously, y'all.  Pumpkin Spice Donuts.  Find them. Eat one. Have another. Change yer miserable lives fer the better.  

2.) That Scary Clown from American Horror Story.

I'm usually not the kinda feller to be followin' the consensus, like this, but yeah - the feller's creepy as all Hell.  I mean: 

twi

He's like a cross between Capt. Spaulding, Zippy The Pinhead, and John Wayne Gacy.  He also has a slight Zodiac thing goin' on to me, although there's probably another reason for that...

Anyhoo - this is my kinda feller.... Creepy as heck! 

 

3.) CORN MAZES. 

Just ike yer typcial haunted maze. But with more Maize!  Ha!  Get it?

Our own local Haunted Maize, on Sauvie's Island. Go check it out!

For local PDXers, the "Haunted Maize"(See, they get a good joke!) on Sauvie's Island's a pretty KILLER maze, and quite popular. Check out their site here:  http://www.portlandmaze.com/haunted_maze.php

4.) This Classic Disney Short. 

I've seen this dang thing more times than I can count, since it first premiered in 1929.  But somehow, it never gets old!

Okay! More Halloween-ish fun, to come...!
