  1. Back in the 90s I did a show with Schloss Tegal. They were very nice folks. Had a good time hanging out with them after. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

  2. Also - the Grand Guignol was a theatre in Paris that did live theatric horror shows. IIRC, it ran for decades and finally closed in the early 1960s - not sure when.

  3. The Grand Guignol was actually a theater in Paris that specialized in graphic horror shows. It's since become a sort of catch-all phrase for gory, splattery entertainment.
