Here is Round Two.
It's an anagram round.
I'll give an example, so you can get the idea:
DEMONS BE is Dem Bones. Just rearrange the letters.
These are all horror/ghost story authors. Can you find the author in each of these:
1: BANGALORE LOCKDOWN
2: JARS MEM
3: OMPHALINOID LEGSHOW
4: RESAMPLE CYMBAL
5: KENNETH PIGS
6: MOBSTER ARK
7: FLETCH VAPOR
8: JOKINESS ARCHLY
9: SMITHY GUN
10: MEGASTAR ROTHMAN
Just like round 1 tell us how you think you did, but don't give away answers yet!

Here is ROUND THREE
It's a Name the Author round.
I was going to give a list of authors and you had to link a story to each one, but to be honest that would be too easy for people on here. Instead you only get titles. Good Luck!
1: The Canterville Ghost
2: Lost Hearts
3: Into the Wood
4: Branch Line to Benceston
5: Caterpillars
6: The Horla
7: The Demon Lover
8: The Monkey's Paw
9: Green Tea
10: Rappacciniās Daughter
Usual rules apply. Give us how many you got right, and perhaps what numbers you got wrong, but no answers yet!
I know some are too easy, but there must be a mix, as guests will be playing too, I replaced a Poe one that everyone would know with one I hope is harder.

The FOURTH and final round is double points! Can you name the actor? That might be simple enough, but for an additional point can you name the film the still came from? Let's see how you get on! It's all to play for! Number 1  Number 2  Number 3  Number 4  Number 5  Number 6  Number 7  Number 8  Number 9  Number 10  |

Maybe you guessed a few, in which case you will need to wait a couple of days to learn the answers.
How do you think you did overall?

I declare you, in addition to being a monster, to be a FIBBER! |

Thankee Fritz! I've been curious to see those Mike Raven films. What a peculiar life he had. Apparently after the Mike Raven era, he became devoutly religious and retired to a farm where he spent his time making Xtian themed wooden sculptures. And there is or was a website where he showed them off when he was living. I think one of his children maintains it now. Can't recall his real name.
And still never seen Fear in the Night... maybe in 2022?
cheers,Hel

How well did people do on the first picture round on here? Can anyone name them for us all?
And did anyone get any on the the other rounds?
