It's been a while since I've posted anything about horror hosts or Detroit, so let me direct you to Keith Milford's excellent fansite dedicated to the Motor City's own Sir Graves Ghastly. I never got the opportunity to watch Sir Graves in action, but he sounds like a pretty cool ghoul.

I also heartily recommend a stop at Old Haunts, a fine online journal of found Halloween photos and related ephemera that's also maintained by Keith.

Schaukasten is another excellent weblog that turned up in my referral log yesterday; poster scans from Psychotronic films are its forte.

I just now saw the news about the London explosions and I want to send out my thoughts and prayers to my pals Ralf, Konstantin, Annie, and Plep. Sounds like the first 3 are ok, no word from Plep yet.

If this is a terrorist attack, and it sure sounds like one, I hope they catch the pricks who did it alive and deny them the martyrdom they seek.

UPDATE: looks like plep checked in at MetaFilter, so I can let out a little bit more of the breath I was holding in, but I've got a lot of other non-blogging mates in London I'm waiting to hear from.

UPDATE to the UPDATE: plep links to this spot-on Letter To The Terrorists, From London.
