Spooky Season, List 8: Halloween Animated Shorts There's always time for these. Show one before your Halloween features.

Spooky Season, List 7: Modern Halloween Yesterday it was old Hollywood Halloween. Today it's everything since. These are all so much fun.

Spooky Season, List 6: Classic Halloween Starting the big lists. These are what the Holiday is about (yes, films can be on more than one list).
1
Spooky Season, List 5: Ghost Stories Just US & UK (Asian ones were List 4). Again, a strong group.
2
Spooky Season, List 4: Asian Ghost Stories Had too many Ghost Stories for one list, so split them by East (Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand) and West. Some absolute must-sees here.

It's Halloween time. Since the Brits weren't into the holiday back in the day, they never made a specific Classic Who Halloween episode, so I've chosen 5 Classic Who stories that best fit Halloween. youtube.com/watch?v=hPXBjEr9…

I'd post here more from Dragon Con, but pics and such are on my phone, and the phone app logs me out, and I'm sick of having to re-log-in.

It's time for another Doctor Who video (probably my last till after DragonCon), this time on the American experience of discovering Patrick Troughton's Second Doctor back in the 1980s. youtube.com/watch?v=ohVpZ2VV…

Yeah, I made another Doctor Who video, this time going back just 3 years instead of 50. youtube.com/watch?v=Jd0TdiXe…

I had a popular Doctor Who Youtube video, so time to try again, continuing my look at the companions of The Doctor, this time, the Third. youtube.com/watch?v=72hUSUbX…

If I'm going to be talking about Doctor Who, I figured I should discuss how I started with the show, back nearly 50 years ago. Things were very different for American Whovians in the '70s & 80s from Brits or anyone going back to the old show now. youtube.com/watch?v=JjROu0Gp…
