SSS: ”13 Ghosts” And Some Ghostly Party Treats

NOTE: This podcast was rebranded on 5/29/25 as "Horror Movie Franchises".  This week we're doing a single serving size episode. That's one which falls below my 3 movie minimum to be considered a franchise. The original "13 Ghost" premiered in 1960. Since it was a William Castle production, you can be there was a gimmick involved. The movie was promoted as having "Illusion-O"-- a pair of glasses that made the on screen ghosts more vivid. The 2001 remake of "13 Ghosts" has some pretty heavy hitters in the acting department. It also has excellent production design and special effects. Too bad the story isn't on the same level. While the ghosts were way cool, I was annoyed by their constantly wondering around the house yelling for each other.  This week's recipe includes some fun suggestions for a ghost themed Halloween party.
