. Vampira; 1950’s Gothic Glamour Piper Minear - Behind the Monster - September 22, 2019 iHorror.com Vampira (Maila Nurmi) slaughters the idea that Goths can’t, and don’t, go to the beach. Furthermore, she looks damn good doing it! Never has someone made a little black bathing suit look so fierce as this horror goddess! Nurmi began from humble beginnings from Massachusetts with big dreams. She started as a coat check girl, but quickly moved on to her dreams. The black clad beauty took on the modeling world by storm with her own unique style. With a nineteen inch waist and love for the Goth aesthetic, Nurmi immediately captured the attention of many. Most importantly she caught the eye of Hunt Stromberg, Jr., the man responsible for creating, Vampira. From the public eye to the celebrities of Hollywood, heads were turning in Vampira’s direction. con't....

Vampira the icon.... returns..
There is a lot of Vampira memorabilia and some interesting artwork online. I was never really familiar with her, as I never saw her program in syndication when I was a boy. It only aired for one season, although fifty episodes. Actually it was a program which featured horror films, with some variety with Maila Nurmi as the host, so it couldn't really have been rebroadcast. I always thought the comic book was the origin of the "Vampira" image, as I recall a more modern 'Vampira' comic series. Actually the original comic was from 1952, and what I was thinking of was the modern 'Vampirella' comic book character. ************
The Queen of Mainstream vs. The Queen of Underground Julie Strain filled the role of an underground "Vampira" type personality between 1990 and 2009, where she stared in 135 films. I recall her being asked one time when her popularity was just taking hold, and Sharon Stone was popular in the mainstream, about what she thought of Sharon Stone. The 6'1" Strain said "I would kick her ass!" ************
Why No Lily Munster? 552,193 views - September 15, 2017 Lindsay Holiday 216K subscribers Please consider supporting me at https://www.patreon.com/LindsayHoliday and help me make more spooky videos! In my Morticia, Vampira and Elvira video – I document how these three femme fatales are connected. The most common comments I get ask why I didn't include Lily Munster, the morbid matriarch of the Munster family. Here is the history of Lily Munster and her portrayer, Yvonne De Carlo and why I think Lily Munster stands in a class of her own.
"Maila Nurmi put the "vamp" in Vampira. She was fall down beautiful, and decades before her time. A true original." -- tiffsaver, YouTuber ************
"Maila Nurmi was smart, funny, clever and imaginative. It's extraordinary that her talent wasn't utilized more so" -- Jeffrey Norris, YouTuber "I love M. Nurmi so much, keep uploading work of hers, I can't find much online. She deserves to keep resurrecting through the new technologies, that´s for sure! I love M. Nurmi so much, keep uploading work of hers, I can't find much online. She deserves to keep resurrecting through the new technologies, that´s for sure!" -- Juan Pedro Martin Gordillo, YouTuber

I Wanna Be Loved By You theclassicculture "I Wanna Be Loved By You" (Betty Boop version) ************************* Darkly artistic scene from 'House of 1000 Corpses' (2003). Rob Zombie is a genius. I'm still waiting for him to equal this very creative grindhouse film. Much of the darkness and violence was put with unusual music, so it was almost like some dark/demented music videos. I mean who would have thought to put a disturbing massacre with Slim Whitman's 'I Remember You'!
"Art is not always pretty." -- Rob Zombie I believe that the version used here was sung by Helen Kane. I think part of the idea behind this scene was the popular comic book character Lady Death.
One guy I used to hang around with had a somewhat aloof younger brother who was obsessed with Lady Death. He had all the memorabilia; comics, books, posters, etc. He was in his mid-20s, and a few of us used to joke on him. He wasn't the least bit shy about showing us all of this collection either. I guess one could say that this was his religion.

The Curse Of The 27 Club Alltime Conspiracies Over the last few decades, dozens of musical superstars have died - often dramatically - at the early age of 27. 'The 27 Club' has gained much infamy, its members including household names such as Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse. But is there any truth to the idea? Could there really be some sinister, supernatural force linking the deaths of these icons? ************************* 27 Club
The Saturnian connection Saturn Return In horoscopic astrology, a Saturn return is an astrological transit that occurs when the planet Saturn returns to the same place in the sky that it occupied at the moment of a person's birth. While the planet may not reach the exact spot until the person is 29 or 30 years old, the influence of the Saturn return is considered to start in the person's late twenties, notably the age of 27. Psychologically, the first Saturn return is seen as the time of reaching full adulthood, and being faced, perhaps for the first time, with adult challenges and responsibilities
'The Legend of the Catskill Witch' George Baird and Erica Obey - MountainHikingSite.com The legend of the Catskill Witch is as old as the gnomes playing at ninepins or the Headless Horseman, having made her first appearance as a postscript to Washington Irving’s tale of Rip van Winkle, where she is described as dwelling on the highest peak of the Catskills, and had charge of the doors of day and night to open and shut them at the proper hour. She hung up the new moon in the skies, and cut up the old ones into stars. In times of drought, if properly propitiated, she would spin light summer clouds out of cobwebs and morning dew, and send them off from the crest of the mountain, flake after flake, like flakes of carded cotton, to float in the air; until, dissolved by the heat of the sun, they would fall in gentle showers, causing the grass to spring, the fruits to ripen, and the corn to grow an inch an hour. If displeased, however, she would brew up clouds black as ink, sitting in the midst of them like a bottle-bellied spider in the midst of its web; and when these clouds broke, woe betide the valleys! cont'd

The Antikythera Mechanism - 2D Antikythera - Anticythère More than 21 centuries ago, a mechanism of fabulous ingenuity was created in Greece, a device capable of indicating exactly how the sky would look for decades to come -- the position of the moon and sun, lunar phases and even eclipses. But this incredible invention would be drowned in the sea and its secret forgotten for two thousand years. ************************* Antikythera mechanism

The other day a black feather just made itself known to me by just being right there in my path. An interesting game to play is to find the synchronistic symbols that you may observe during the day. Most would be coincidence, but I believe that some are elemental symbols. This black feather was to my left...
"If the feather appeared on your LEFT:
This indicates a very strong SPIRITUAL message for you. Your higher self has brought you to this very moment to receive the message you are about to receive. Understand that this message is for your SOUL, your spiritual self, the shadow side of your nature, the dreamer and the lover within you."

'Encounter with two mountain lions was double the thrill' Tom Stienstra - San Francisco Chronicle - June 20, 2016 [Above image: Photo: John Richards - Trail cam set up above Foothills Park near Skyline on Peninsula captured this shot of mountain lion meandering down trail] At age 89, a hiker on the Peninsula encountered two mountain lions last week inside of 10 feet. Warren Storkman of Palo Alto then walked away without a scratch and with the thrill of a lifetime. Storkman was hiking at Foothills Park in Palo Alto, where a trail is cut into the edge of a steep slope above a valley. At this spot, the landscape is grassland and chaparral. “To my surprise, coming around a curve, a beautiful, youthful lion, running at top speed,” Storkman said. “It was being chased by another lion of the same stature. cont'd George Harrison-My Sweet Lord (Studio Version) Original wirytangent19
************************* Great song. I think one should be able to associate any music to whatever they wish. This song doesn't have to be for the Lord, or for Hare Krishna. It can be a tribute to a person, a place, a time, a dream, a concept, or whatever you wish. This would be a good example of that idea.
This song reminds of an old girlfriend named Francesca... a long time ago. We just weren't really on the same page. Oddly, over theyears she became a little more like I was then; and I have become a little more like she was then. I suppose that means that it was never meant to be.. .
