What We're Watching: Kathryn

The Raven, starring Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff 1935

The first movie of the series of classic horror flicks we are showing as part of the library's Edgar Allan Poe Month, this was great to rewatch! The black-and-white film features all the great ingredients for a spooky old movie: trapdoors in the study that lead to secret rooms, cobwebs in the hidden corridors, torture devices, a stormy night with banging shutters and of course, the actors' hilarious takes to the camera before the peals of insane madman laughter. I can't wait for the rest of the movies!

Edgar Allan Poe Month is sponsored in part by the Michigan Humanities Council and the Friends of the Sterling Heights Public Library. For more information on the entire Edgar Allan Poe Month event schedule, visit our Web site!
