Happy Halloween from Foxsylvania!
Hello, Boils and Ghouls, and welcome to this special Halloween Edition of Foxsylvania! Halloween is special to me, always has been and always will be. It’s an occasion relatively free of suffocating family obligations and not awash in commercialism, a time of imagination and dipping into the dark corners of our psyche…here there be dragons! So gather ’round, kiddies, and let your Uncle Vulpes bring you items to thrill, chill, and amaze you…(well, maybe, just a little!) This is what we mean by, Cheap Thrills…
That’s it…come closer as I begin to be fired up, and my true form I share with you! For I am both man and beast, substance and shadow, flame and air…that’s really what a firefox is! I am fox, I am feral, and I am DANGEROUS! (Cue up that Michael Jackson number, please…)
Brief, all too brief is All Hallow’s Eve when we can take off the masks that society makes us wear to please others. Join me in this dark dance of kindred furry spirits! It is a fine kind of madness that we enjoy as we gyrate and spin faster and faster, until the dancers become the dance!
But no…soon, all too soon, the cock crows, heralding the approach of dawn, and I am drawn away by irresistible energies to another dimension to walk in boring human flesh until the calendar passes another dreary year and blessed Samhain arrives again…Best Witches, everyone, Ahahahaha!

And Happy All Saints Day right back at ya! 🙂
I helped my mother hand out candy at the door from half past five to twenty past eight. Almost three hours! And, by our best guess-timate, we had over a hundred kids and over seventy grown-up chaperones visit our front porch. A grand time was had by all.
Following which, we watched the original 1978 version of HALLOWEEN by John Carpenter. Believe it or not, my mother had never seen the whole thing! So, she was amazed that there were only three on-screen killings so late in the flick (last 30-40 minutes of the running time).
Just goes to show you what a semi-bum rap the more graphically violent plagiarisms retroactively gave it.

For my Halloween viewing, I watched “Phantom of the Paradise,” a rather bad horror-comedy from 1974 that spoofs “Phantom of the Opera,” the Rocky Horror show, and other things of the time. It had its moments, but they were few… 🙀

It could have been worse. Imagine Andrew Lloyd Webber doing a musical version of “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” with Quasimodo singing “Straighten Up and Fly Right”!

One more comedic treat for you, this first day after Halloween. What do you get when you cross a St. Bernard with an Alaskan Malamud?
