Updated March 9, 2023 The trailer for The Night House was exceptional. Its job worked immediately, making me wonder where the house was located and what was up with the creepy-looking doll, which I’ve since learned is called a Louvre doll.

The Shanley Hotel on the Haunted History Trail of New York State

Rendering of Kelly Little Green Men

Where did the term “little green men” come from? As far as relating to UFOs and aliens, that is. That’s also sometimes how gremlins are described. Have you ever wondered? Or did you just think, like I did, that it must have some Roswell connection? It does, of course, haveContinue Reading
