Creepy Classics & Monster Bash News

MONSTER BASH PHAN  PHOTO:  A bizarre 1932 short comedy film that plays off of the success of FRANKENSTEIN (1931). This short feature is called SHAMPOO, THE MAGICIAN. Goofy, but an interesting notable in Frankenstein film lore. It can be found as an extra on the voodoo movie DVD called OUANGA (1936).

 

MONSTER BASH October 2026 Update

The sad news is that Bela Lugosi, Jr. is doing very poorly healthwise and his daughter Lynne Lugosi has to stay with him as his 24 hour caregiver. She is under a lot of concern and our thoughts and prayers go out to her. She has had to cancel her appearance at MONSTER BASH as she is taking care of her father.

 

Johnny Witaker has joined for MONSTER BASH October 16-18, 2026. It's the 60th anniversary of his hit TV show FAMILY AFFAIR. He also starred in THE MYSTERY IN DRACULA'S CASTLE (1973) where he plays a "Monster Kid" making home made monster movies. Many grew up watching him in the Sid & Marty Krofft SIGMUND AND THE SEA MONSTERS kid's show.

 

Join all the "Monster Kids" at MONSTER BASH October 16-18, 2026!

 

Rondo Remembers - Waning Summer Days

As summer is fast coming to a close, I look over my shoulder.

 

It was about this time of the year, in 1970 that I was flying a balsa wood airplane. It had a plastic propeller that you would wind-up with a rubber band and let it go. It would indeed fly, and fast. But, it flew erratically and would usually dive bomb into the ground at a swift angle, or head-on into a tree. The simple toys and simple fun on a sunny summer day, in my Chuck Taylor high-top sneakers.

 

Awaiting me on the front porch, on a picnic table that my parents had there, was an issue of FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND with THE GREEN SLIME on the cover. The short pile of summer afternoon reading also contained an issue of the comic book MARVEL TALES with a reprint of Spider-Man fighting Doctor Octopus. That image drawn beautifully by Steve Ditko. There was a copy of the BORIS KARLOFF TALES OF MYSTERY digest book too.

 

Could life ever be better? I don't think too much…because I still remember those beloved items and toys…decades later. The sun on the green grass and nothing but 37 cents in my pocket. Knowing that I could get three more comic books, or if I did some chores and got just a few more cents…another FAMOUS MONSTERS magazine when it came out. Or, maybe I could get one of those garish cheap CREEPY-styled black and white comic magazines like HORROR TALES at the drugstore. They were the back-ups if there weren't any of the "good" magazines.

 

Dad was working on fixing up an old 1950s car on the gravel parking area, listening to some 1950s music on an early cassette player. Mom was inside with my sister reading the latest JACK & JILL kids magazine.

Life didn't get better than a summer day in 1970.

Wondering where we were the last few days? Read on...

 

Rondo Remembers - Tornados & Flying Monkeys

You might have wondered where I've been for the past few days. I'm usually posting stuff on Creepy Classics and Monster Bash almost every weekday. Of course maybe you haven't been wondering, but I'll tell ya anyway. Ha! Late on Thursday my phone and my wife's phone alarmed. An urgent warning popped up saying that a severe storm was heading our way fast. It predicted damaging winds, severe thunderstorms, and potential flooding. Within a few minutes it alarmed again. This time it was a tornado warning (not watch, but warning) for our area. A warning means it was spotted, not just predicted. Winds in our little town of Ligonier hit 100 miles per hour. The warning said to take shelter now. 

 

Ursula and I headed for the basement as the wind howled! From a basement window we saw the large trees in our yard bending almost halfway over and I saw a small tree go flying through the air. Wowsa. I have seen videos of hurricanes and tornados, but had never seen anything like this personally. After a quiet prayer, nothing hit our house (the Creepy Classics castle), and we were fine. It subsided to just severe thunderstorms for the next few hours. 

 

A tornado had come about a mile from our house. Three trees in our yard came down. Then, we were without electric for three and a half days, till minutes before I started typing this. Earlier a dear friend came over with a chainsaw and cut the trees up and I hauled the pieces into the woods. Whew, a workout.

 

Creepy Classics and Monster Bash will live to creep and bash another day.

This whole scene set my mind to thinking as we were without power. I thought of tornados and how they scared the heck out of me as a kid. The time my little mind had seen one, it was in the film THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939). This is back in the pre-video days when it came on CBS broadcast TV stations only once a year. I saw it first in the mid-1960s. Then, it was a family event to catch it every year.

 

That movie thrilled me! It was, in parts, a horror movie! The fear and trauma of the tornado. The effect in the movie is fabulous. If you've never seen how that effect was created, you should look it up on-line. Amazing.  Then there's the house crushing the Witch of the East, the serious dark threat of the Wicked Witch of the West, and the odd munchkins (some with plants growing out pf their heads!). Throw in the witch's broom skywriting that she'll get Dorothy. This is all the stuff of nightmares.

 

A child (Dorothy) kidnapped along with her innocent little dog. The witch's horde of flying monkeys (they scared the HECK out of me). The scarecrow torn apart and his disembodied head still talking. The marching power of the witch's army...chanting away, "Oh-wee-oh!" Finally the witch melting away to just steaming clothing. In my early viewings as a young child I thought she melted to a glob of steaming grease. Probably just a false memory of terror for me.

 

Anyhow, all those fears of THE WIZARD OF OZ revisited my brain over the past few days as we awaiting electrical power to return. 

 

That witch, those flying monkeys, that dark twister.
