Who remembers when I asked about finding a site for horror movie tv listings? I think I found the site I had been looking for back then—of course, it’s sorted by actor. For example, here’s their listing for upcoming Vincent Price movies. I think they used to have a section, specifically for horror.

I also found a site called Halloween TV. To find a bit of stuff, click on their link that says Tivo. The link seems to be broken, but go to the main page, and type in Halloween. You should find a few things.

The Halloween Forum seems to have a good list of upcoming specials that’s updated every day.

In other news, I went to Oller’s Oddities--or Mill Massacre, or whatever they’re calling it this year. Everyone was very unorganized. Dad and I got there around 6:50--at 7:03, we still didn’t see any lights on. We drove around to the other side, and discovered that the haunted house was back there. But we couldn’t go in yet, because a lot of people who were helping them get things set up were late. They mentioned that they probably needed to set up some sort of strobe light, so people would know to come back there.

We waited until 7:18, and we were the only people there. Eventually, they let us in--for $10, rather than $12, because of our wait--and quite a few things were still unorganized. To sum things up, it was barely 5 minutes going through everything even with the insane strobe lights, and I got sprayed with fake blood (really warm water) four times. Oh, and at the end, a guy is supposed to run up with a chainsaw before you leave--but his chainsaw was broken, so there wasn’t any noise. As he stood there looking confused, and shaking it, we left.

As we left, we heard it finally start working, and the boy shouted, “I got it! I got it! Wait!”

I’m hoping to find a better haunted house in the area before Halloween rolls around.
