Was it because he was such a hot-topic with the youth (the target demographic for spook-shows) or because he had this "occult" edge to his persona?

I have so many I do not knwo where to begin, but I am finally finding the time to read some of the stuff I have collected it is great. May not be the same as holding real paper in your hands, but how in the world is that ever going to happen with something like this anyway. <br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Bill @ The Uranium CafeBill Dan Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841080966908732301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392175801175270335.post-70731790146121218982011-01-06T23:04:30.431-05:002011-01-06T23:04:30.431-05:00I have heard of a friendship between Maila and Dea...I have heard of a friendship between Maila and Dean before in David J. Skal's excellent piece of scholarship on the horror genre, THE MONSTER SHOW. Apparently, Dean had a bit of morbid streak and was obsessed with the suicide of his mother. He often spoke to Maila about his death and the manner in which he would die. They hung out fairly often right before he became a huge star (and before her show was canceled). I can't remember the exact falling out between them, if there was any. <br /><br />Vampira also had a bit of relationship with Liberace and I have the video over at the Cavalcade to prove this exists. <br /><br />Great post, Max. I love stuff like this.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299640716799276127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392175801175270335.post-71211154233225774402011-01-06T20:24:33.872-05:002011-01-06T20:24:33.872-05:00that one pic of vampira upside down is so rad!that one pic of vampira upside down is so rad!Sir Jorge Ordunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12538889001050034217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392175801175270335.post-43514040528300504922011-01-06T20:23:44.124-05:002011-01-06T20:23:44.124-05:00Thanks Max!
