	Chicago house - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chicago house is the earliest style of house music.
		House music originated in a Chicago, Illinois nightclub called the Warehouse, which many hold to be the origin of the term "house music".
		House music grew out of the post-disco dance club culture of the early 1980s.

	The Dark House
		She thought about dark, how the dark anywhere else was so different that the dark of the dark house.
		The dark house held a mischievous air of mysticism about it; the smell of apples lingered in her thoughts everytime she thought about dark.
		She considered it was he, not the house, which was the fountainhead of that arousing scent.

	House of Dark Shadows
		When its six-year run ground to a halt in 1971, I was not yet born, and “Dark Shadows” has never (at least in my TV market) been one of those shows that succeeds in crossing over into the eternal unlife of syndication— although it certainly would have been most appropriate if it had.
		House of Dark Shadows has a particularly severe case of Presumed Familiarity Syndrome— from what I’ve seen, only Transformers: The Movie is more blatant in its disregard for those who might come to it unfamiliar with the televised back-story.
		This is all the more puzzling because House of Dark Shadows— in contrast to Transformers: The Movie— does not appear to fit into the TV continuity at any specified point, but seems rather to stand as a sort of edited highlights reel for the first five years of the series.

		Cora led Vida through the dim house, past the living room with its marble fireplace, and up two flights of stairs, at the top of which she pulled a small key out of her pocket and opened the attic door.
		He had taken to doing this on Saturday mornings, marking the houses that he thought she ought to look at, pressing the pages upon her so insistently that it was impossible to refuse them.
		The third house was smaller still and at first glance appeared to have no books in it at all, not even picture books or pocket-sized nursery rhymes in the pink-walled children's bedroom.

		FULL DARK HOUSE has a surreal feel about it and the resolution, although I felt it was unsatisfactory, certainly matches the tone of the book.
		Overall, FULL DARK HOUSE was a lot of fun and I'll definitely be looking forward to the next Bryant and May mystery.
		FULL DARK HOUSE is scheduled to be published in America by Bantam in June 2004.

	MYSTERY!: Old Dark Houses
		That would be "The House of Usher." Poe was one of the first authors to give a house a physical persona, telling us it had "eye-like windows" that looked down upon the visitor, filling him with dread.
		It popularized the notion of the old dark house filled with secret corridors, hidden panels, spiral staircases -- and hooded killers, who usually were after overnight guests whose car had broken down during a rainstorm.
		Manderley was the old dark house where the heroine came to feel the unwelcome presence of her husband's former wife.

	DVD Review - The Old Dark House (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Interestingly, "The Old Dark House" is a film that will undoubtedly disappoint most viewers who see the film for the first time.
		Nevertheless, "The Old Dark House" is a very aesthetic and cinematic film and every picture, ever camera angle, every light has been placed and chosen for a purpose.
		If you start wondering about the name, yes this is the same Gloria Stuart that appeared in "Titanic" and as matter of fact the reason she got cast for "Titanic" was a result of her commentary track for "The Old Dark House".

	DVDFILE.COM: The Old Dark House review
		First, Gloria Stuart did a commentary track for the laserdisc release a few years ago, which was supposedly the conduit for James Cameron to consider her for the part of the elder Rose in the "not accounting for inflation" biggest moneymaking film of all time, Titanic.
		Second, The Old Dark House was directed by James Whale, the subject of the recent film Gods and Monsters.
		The house is occupied by Horace Femm (Elspeth Dudgeon) and his sister Rebecca (Eva Moore), who are both quite reluctant to accommodate the stranded visitors for the night.

	April 03 Beyond Dark House
		The bold poems of Beyond this Dark House, deceptive in their simplicity, will appeal both to readers of his novels and of contemporary poetry alike.
		With Beyond this Dark House, I was quite conscious of wanting to create a book that would offer insight and illumination for readers of my fiction, but at the same time would stand entirely on its own, for someone who'd never read a page of my novels.
		In fact, this is analogous to my aspiration in my historical fantasies: I want the novels to 'work' for those who know the periods I'm drawing upon for inspiration, but also to be engaging and accessible to readers who know nothing at all of the actual historical periods.

	Classic-Horror Review of The Old Dark House (1932)
		Funny, frightening, and fabulous, this movie is the first and best of the “dark secret in the attic of the old creepy house” movies.
		Starring Boris Karloff and directed by James Whale, it‘s pretty easy to see why this movie is the cult hit that it is. With a whopping ten main characters and a low budget, this film could have easily been a catastrophe.
		The Old Dark House always seems to come up, and will continue to be mentioned for years to come.

		So it is that while FULL DARK HOUSE is the first of a projected series of mysteries featuring Arthur Bryant and John May, it deals with their first, and last, case.
		While he obviously conducted an incredible amount of research in the writing of this book, that fact does not fully credit Fowler's almost magical ability to transport the reader back in time, to make the passages in the novel read as if they were diary entries written as the bombs fell.
		FULL DARK HOUSE is an ambitious and challenging beginning to what will hopefully be a long-running series.

	Bookreporter.com - FULL DARK HOUSE by Christopher Fowler
		In FULL DARK HOUSE, Christopher Fowler tells the story of both their first and last case--and how along the way the unlikely pair of crime fighters changed the face of detection.
		And it will take Arthur Bryant's unorthodox techniques and John May's dogged police work to catch a criminal whose ability to escape detection seems almost supernatural--a murderer who even decades later seems to have claimed the life of one of them...and is ready to claim the other.
		Filled with startling twists, unforgettable characters, and a mystery that will keep you guessing, FULL DARK HOUSE is a witty, heartbreaking, and all-too-human thriller about the hunt for an inhuman killer.

	The Old Dark House DVD - Michael Weise Productions
		Old Dark House is an early thriller which draws audiences probably because of Boris Karloff's name but which has a great cast.
		They stumble upon an old house with lights in the windows and venture in only to find a very strange family inside.
		But there are more Femms hidden away in the house, and the film does a superb job allowing the wayfarers (and the viewer) to go further and further in to see the horrors hidden away.

		Interestingly, CCF was published the same year The Old Dark House was released, so who knows whether Gibbons was influenced by it.
		The Old Dark House is directed by James Whale, which practically guarantees quirky cinema with flamboyant acting.
		The visitors who must take refuge there because of a raging storm are welcomed (or are they?) by quite a queer and dysfunctional family, which seems to grow larger and larger (and more bizarre) as the movie goes on.

		But this book's writer seemed to be on a skid pad downhill and lost control after the guy followed the other guy who tailed to the so-called dark house.
		Those characters were all half-baked and the structure of the plotting was obviously developed by an amateur who only got the concept but failed to deliver with realistic picture.
		Don't expect The Dark House to win any literary awards, but don't be surprised if the person on the beach next to you this summer gets sunburned because they don't want to stop reading long enough to put on sunblock.

		Relieving the story's overwhelming weirdness are Charles Laughton and a young Gloria Stuart as two confused visitors to the strange estate.
		If he can stand THE OLD DARK HOUSE until its end without ejecting the DVD, he can undoubtedly consider himself as a real movie lover.
		James Whale is perhaps best known for two things: being the subject of the recent and acclaimed film Gods and Monsters, and a trio of beloved and well made classics of early horror, Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, and The Old Dark House.

		It is certainly, in my book, the best film James Whale ever made, and if you see it on a good print, it stands up very well.
		The setting of the Old House on a dark rainy night is brilliantly done and the mood is held all the way through.
		The cast is excellent headed By Boris Karloff as the sometimes out-of-control Morgan, and Charles Laughton is a delight in his very off-beat role.

	Metapsychology Online Reviews - The Dark House (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The Dark House is the first novel of John Sedgwick; it’s a psychological mystery set in Boston with some pleasing eccentricities.
		As the plot thickens, it becomes quite complex and we see dark family secrets revealed and it becomes clear that Rollins and Marj’s lives may be in danger.
		The Dark House is an entertaining novel, even if it requires rather careful attention to the twists and turns of the unfolding story.

	The Dark House: A Novel by John Sedgwick
		A diligent but uninspired employee at one of the city's finest investment houses, he is a man of means -- and of secrets.
		Trailing a car to a remote suburb, Rollins follows it to a house that, he eerily realizes, was once frequented by his murdered cousin.
		Drawn into a mystery to which he unwittingly holds the key, he must unlock the secrets of his past to find the truth -- a search that could free him from his own dark house of despair.

	Combustible Celluloid film review - The Old Dark House (1932), James Whale, Boris Karloff, Charles Laughton, dvd review
		The owners of the creepy house are; Ernest Thesiger, with the great name Horace Femm, and his religious fanatic sister, Rebecca Femm (Eva Moore).
		Whale was probably more at home with The Old Dark House than any of the other horror films, due to the sophisticated characters, witty dialogue, and the wonderful old house set.
		Later, Stuart and Massey find the patriarch of the house, a 102-year old bed-ridden man, played in drag by a woman (Elspeth Dudgeon, credited as 'John Dudgeon') so that the high-pitched voice comes off as eerie.

	House of Dark
		Yeh, I like this - there is a kind of bluish hint to the house, like there is a full moon - in fact, there must be as the stones are casting shadows towards the house.
		Also, the lower part of the house (the stonework) meets the white part a bit abrubtly.
		I think the gradient looks odd because it's rounded and the window is rectangular - the colour doesn't fit into the edges and this is why the text looks too far to the left - and that cursor is horrible.

	Random House \| Books \| Dark Matter by Philip Kerr
		In 1696, Christopher Ellis, a young, hot-tempered gentleman, is sent to the Tower of London, but not as a prisoner.
		In the heat of their pursuit, Newton and Ellis’s suspicions become all too real as the body count rises and the duo uncovers a menacing far-reaching plot that might lead to the collapse of the government—and cost them their very lives.
		An extraordinary, suspense-filled, and richly satisfying tale, Dark Matter is an engrossing mystery infused with the volatile mix of politics, science, and religion that characterized life in seventeenth-century London.

	Scifilm -- Musings, THE OLD DARK HOUSE (1932)
		Five travellers get trapped by a landslide and are forced to spend the night at a strange mansion peopled by eccentric (and possibly dangerous) characters.
		Though I've done a lot of talking about "old dark house" movies lately, this hard-to-find classic doesn't quite qualify; there are no mysterious murders, no secret passages, and no red herrings.
		If anything, it's like an early, subtle ancestor to "The Addams Family"; the Femm family is one of the oddest set of characters you'll find in any movie.
