Cool that Shadows Val Lewton series is included. That was my introduction to Secret History of Hollywood.

Also, give the fantastically ambition in scope and astonishingly detailed audio drama recreation of the life and films of Val Lewton, “Shadows: The Val Lewton story.”
The final episode touched a few personal nerves.
I’ll always recommend that people watch more Val Lewton films.

If you are in the spooky Halloween mood and looking for something to listen to that is both entertaining and educational then you can do no worse than “The secret history of Hollywood - A Universe of Horrors.”

Do you listen to the podcast The Secret History of Hollywood? Done by a Brit with a great voice, he does various long form series, one of which is Shadows about Val Lewton. The episodes concerning Boris are so lovely. He seems to have been a truly wonderful person

Modern horror or old-school? The Secret History of Hollywood one is really good on the Val Lewton/Universal horror era

Do you know the podcast The Secret History of Hollywood by the wonderful @Audiojoe? He does long and short form episodes and he did a series on Val Lewton called Shadows, in which the 7th Victim episode is heavily about Jean Brooks. It will break your heart.

If you close your eyes you can’t tell them apart. Have you listened to the Shadows series (about Val Lewton) on the Secret History of Hollywood podcast? Beautifully done by @AudioJoe, a British podcaster. He talks about Tom Conway and it will break your heart

Paul, if you like podcasts, a good one is The Secret History of Hollywood - Shadows about 11 episodes. It's the story of Val Lewton, the director of among others The Bodysnatchers. Great stories about Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi.

Watched the documentary "I Am Alfred Hitchcock" recorded in October off of the CW of all channels. Cool that they used audio bites from Adam Roche from the Secret History of Hollywood podcast, as well as Mark Ramsey from the Inside Psycho podcast. @markramseymedia @Audiojoe
