I had a crush on Frankenstein’s Monster when I was a girl. He was very sweet but nobody understood him. He was pushed into a corner and had to come out fighting. “You treat like monster? I act like monster,” he says. He didn’t ask to come into this world, into this horrible place — very much like me. He reaches out but people wearing liederhosen throw rocks and chase him while carrying torches–very much like what happens to me.
At Halloween time, which is my Christmas, I put framed pictures of my first honey in different poses all over my apartment. I’m excited as the time is nigh. I love October! And away with this stinkin’ humidity and season of funky ass crack stench! I don’t want to intrude on Eva Halloween’s territory but I want to share this wonderful opener for the Saturday evening Creature Feature movies, circa 1970somethingorother. Eva Halloween has the coolest site, especially for Halloween enthusiasts. I remember three of my girl cousins and I huddled in their bedroom one Saturday evening, watching Creature Features. All the lights were turned out and we had popcorn — good times, good times. This is when I first divulged my crush. They paid my honey very little to be in this video because they thought he was stupid. But he was not. He knew it would make him famous. There’s a little public announcement at the beginning but it’s kind of cool and retro:
