Girls, Join Us Tomorrow Night, As Svengoolie Presents "The Frozen Ghost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


                                    This looks like a REAL Forties Fest.  With a cast including Lon Chaney, Jr. , Evelyn Ankers, and  Elena Verdugo, (yes,  Consuelo Lopez, on "Marcus Welby, M.D.") "The Frozen Ghost is  a movie I have heard of, since I was  a  kid, but never seen.   It is supposed to be a "noir mystery."  So, I cannot say what the film will  turn  out  to be, except next to  last week's, it has  to be a masterpiece..


                                      I can tell you, it  IS  possible to freeze a ghost.  For verification, read  the  short story "The Water Ghost Of  Harrowby Hall," by John Kendrick Bangs, first published in "Harper's," on June 27, 1891, and then, where I read it, in the Alfred Hitchock anthology, "Haunted Houseful."  It takes the  reader through the  process.


                                        So, join us, darlings, tomorrow night, for "The Frozen Ghost!"


                                        It should  be simply chilling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. Victoria,
    Actually, that was Lon Chaney, Sr.
    Lon Chaney, Jr. is in this film.
    He had a long career, but, in a
    time when Hollywood had makeup
    artists for themselves, Chaney Sr.
    did it all himself. Remarkable!
