But I do love the gentle moment there with Alexi-- this scene turned into the scene in Whitechapel instead.<br /><br />I also LOVE Henry James, I'm very glad Turn of the Screw was mentioned. Poe too!<br /><br />Morning Glow,<br />So glad you're here,<br />The Muppet Christmas Carol is my favourite movie of all time!!!!!!! (along with Die Hard and Sense and Sensibility) :D You are SO RIGHT, I love Dickens but it's so much more wonderful with Kermit!!! <br /><br />Penney,<br />Glad you mentioned Twain - I love him. He lived in what is regarded as the most haunted house in NYC for a while. Likely was inspired there. :)<br /><br />Thanks also, my Tour attendees, for mentioning new names and new book titles for me to read! I love it!<br /><br />Bigcabgirl,<br />Your words make my day. Truly. Thank you.<br /><br />Traveler,<br />The Woman in Black is WONDERFUL - have you seen the stage play? One of my favourite productions of all time. Haunts me, quite truly, to this day.Leanna Renee Hieberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687827421608625020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1748159707491896359.post-84946999434443798132009-08-30T16:20:57.794-07:002009-08-30T16:20:57.794-07:00The most memorable is A Christmas Carol!
