I’m very sorry to hear of the sudden death of writer/historian David J. Skal. When THE MONSTER SHOW was first published, I looked him up in the Manhattan phone book and sent a fan letter to his address. He replied with a Bela Lugosi postcard, which I still have. A terrible loss.

I'm deeply saddened to learn of the death of David J. Skal in a car accident on January 1. He was a wonderful writer who chronicled the history of horror, and I always found him to be a kind and gracious person. This is a great loss to the genre of horror.

This was an amazing morning read with luke and David Roth on a range of topics. On the light side with some AFC East chat, I hope some beat writer from Lowell snaps and tells Belichick to go fuck himself by the end of the season.

I'm saddened to hear of the passing of film historian and writer David J. Skal earlier this year. I'm currently working on videos on both Dracula and Freaks, and his commentaries have been invaluable. May his spirit live on.

THE END OF WRITING
What is surprising is not the flood of writings about how mean the end of (human) writing. What is surprising is that none of the human writers who have composed these texts bothered to do their homework.
