This week we are reviewing one of Indy's childhood favourites, the Canadian cult classic horror movie The Changeling! We discuss the structure of haunted house movies, the clever direction, tension building, grief, and what we want done with our corpses. The Changeling on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zm4rZJozMJc&t=3007s&ab_channel=KingsofHorror The Changeling is a 1980 Canadian supernatural psychological horror film directed by Peter Medak and starring George C. Scott, Trish Van Devere, and Melvyn Douglas. Its plot follows an esteemed New York City composer who relocates to Seattle, Washington, where he moves into a mansion he comes to believe is haunted. The screenplay is based upon events that writer Russell Hunter claimed he experienced while he was living in the Henry Treat Rogers mansion in the Cheesman Park neighborhood of Denver, Colorado, in the late 1960s; Hunter served as a co-writer of the film.

Mount Prospect Cemetery was one of Denver's very first cemeteries. They opened it with hopes and dreams that Denver's wealthy and influential would rest here for eternity. Soon though all that are being buried are outlaws, criminals and the poor. It is then converted from a cemetery to a park. Thanks to a corrupted and greedy undertaker Edward McGovern, not everyone is buried elsewhere. When you go to the beautiful park today you are also visiting a cemetery as many bodies remain here to this very day.

Denver has always been home to revolutionary movements — Chicano civil rights, disability justice, and the fight for LGBTQ+ equality have all played out here across decades. For each of those movements, geography plays an important role, like Capitol Hill, where queer people found refuge, support, and community. Ahead of PrideFest this weekend, host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi join comics artist and historian B. Erin Cole on a walking tour of Cap Hill, as seen through a queer historical lens. B. Erin has researched and illustrated a map with markers from the State Capitol to Cheesman Park — but it's the flipped homes, demolished buildings, and long-gone bars in-between that tell the deeper story of the neighborhood's vibrant LGBTQ+ history.  B. Erin Cole's illustrated map of queer Capitol Hill can be found as part of History Colorado's Rainbows and Revolutions exhibit, on view now. Find more of B. Erin's work here.  In today's City Cast Denver newsletter, producer Lizzie Goldsmith has a roundup of summer theater events.

The Changeling  (1980)   The Canadian supernatural horror film from 1980; its plot follows an esteemed New York City composer who relocates to Seattle, where he moves into a mansion he comes to believe is haunted. The screenplay is based upon events that writer Russell Hunter claimed he experienced while he was living in the Henry Treat Rogers mansion in the Cheesman Park neighborhood of Denver, Colorado, in the late 1960s.  The film also features Melyvn Douglas also in our book to screen episode Ghost Story.  The film won eight inaugural Genie Awards, including Best Motion Picture, and was nominated for two Saturn Awards. It is considered one of the best horror films of all time, and one of the most influential Canadian films of all time.   The Fog (1980)   The John Carpenter's supernatural horror film would put mother and daughter scream queens in a film together in the form of Janet Leigh and Jamie Lee Curtis.   It tells the story of a strange, glowing fog that sweeps over a small coastal town in California, bringing with it the vengeful ghosts of mariners who were killed in a shipwreck there 100 years before.  A novelization of the movie, written by Dennis Etchison, was published by Bantam Books in January 1980. The novel clarifies the implication in the film that the six who must die were not random but in fact descendants of the six original conspirators.  The film has a guest star appearance by John Houseman who also features in our book to screen film this month Ghost Story.   We are joined by author Jim Wosochlo (Unexhumed, Appalachian Schaumboch's Tavern).  You can follow him via Twitter:  https://twitter.com/wosochlo   We are also joined by author Matthew Brockmeyer (Nest of Salt, Under Rotting Sky).  You can follow him via Twitter:  https://twitter.com/humboldtlycan     Opening Credits/Introduction (1.51); Oh My GOD!!!

Cheesman Park is located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Denver, Colorado. The park is one of the most visited spots in the city and attracts many outdoor enthusiasts, joggers, and those who want to spend some peaceful time outside. This park spans around 80 acres and is filled with trails, fountains, and close to around 2,000 trees. While most people go there to enjoy the scenery what they don’t know is that they are walking on the graves of those who were buried over 150 years ago. When night falls this park becomes something else and is one of the most haunted places in the entire city.Sources:Cheesman Park Story (rockymountainparanormal.com)Ghosts of Cheesman Park in Denver – Legends of AmericaCheesman Park: Haunted by fun (and angry ghosts, probably) | WestwordCheesman Park's Past Life...as a Cemetery | Denver Public Library History (denverlibrary.org) https://www.cnn.com/2010/US/11/18/denver.park.cemetery/index.htmlHaunted Colorado: The Chilling History of Cheesman Park (ourcommunitynow.com)

Every cemetery is unique. Each has its own unique character based on location. Sometimes it is the landscape that is different. Other times, it is the local culture or customs. But truthfully, it is the personalities buried within that define the true character. We have featured over seventy haunted cemeteries around the world in the past six years. After compiling a list, we realized that there were several states, thirteen to be exact, that have not been included yet and on this episode we will rectify that by including several of those. On this episode, we have China Grove Cemetery in Arkansas, Friendship Cemetery in Mississippi, Mount Moriah Cemetery in Montana, Little Egypt Cemetery in Indiana and Cheesman Park in Colorado. The Moment in Oddity was suggested by Rick Kennett and features the Springthorpe Memorial and This Month in History features the Knights Templar officially recognized.
