The Hall of Fire

Its definitely a useful tool. When used correctly.

Really? I think thats absolutely dreadful artwork. Looks like Idris Elba's Heimdall, not Aragorn with Anduril. The sword is preposterous.

It was from May 16 with the brides. There's another reference to it coming soon IIRC "Are we to have nothing to-night?" said one of them, with a low laugh, as she pointed to the bag which he had thrown upon the floor, and which moved as though there were some living thing within it. For an...

THis is the closest thing I've heard to an unreleased Queen song. Sam Ryders voice is exceptional and has a very Freddie quality, completely different to Adam Lambert, who I do love also. It helps that Brian May provides the guitar break.

Anyone heard from Griffy?

So, a bit of news here. The National AIMS Awards nominations came out Sunday. THink of them like the Tonys for Amateur Musicals in Ireland. I was involved in three shows this year. "Our House" which I directed, "Little Shop of Horrors" for which I was Technical Manager (Sets, Lig...

I always loved the casual reference to the child in the sack. Horrific in its matter of factness...

Just checked Apple Books and they're on there for about €13 each

Any update here?

Speaking of which...

Don't forget Stoker was Irish. Who could blame him

Oh no, its really good if memory serves. I think I have a copy on MP3 somewhere, my original was Cassette

Knowing what Harker will eventually find fills these excursions with dread for me. Interesting side note. I made best effort to find the most accurate Movie or TV adaptation that tells the story almost exactly as written, and one simply doesn't exist. Even the 70's BBC Miniseries screws it up. THe B...

Oooh is this just before Nassty Chips?

Merry and Pippin in the storehouses at Isengard?

Reading this reminds me a lot of Tolkien. People say "that's such a trope" but only cause Stoker and JRRT invented them!

Its difficult to pretend we don't all know Dracula and read this as just an older gentleman in an ancestral home. We fill in the blanks immediately.

You know what, I'm just kinda along for the ride at this stage! I'm not apprehensive or excited, just kinda... there.

Thanks guys! And yeah, we had a chandelier! Lemme find a link to some pics.
