Show Notes:
1. Suggested viewing after you listen to this episode, or any time: John Carpenter’s The Fog, Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters II, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Gravity Falls.
2. I have no idea if Argosy was hard or easy to get published in, never read it. It’s just the name of a magazine that was active in 1939, I think.

5. One of Anne Rice's novels opens with the line "The Vampire Lestat here." Reeaaallly killed the vibe for me.
