  • Slide show of eccentric castle converted to hotel, $1000/night - QUOTE:
    The Versailles Road castle in Woodford County [just outside Lexington, Kentucky] has been renovated after a devastating fire in May of 2004. The Castle, now dubbed CastlePost by owner Thomas R. Post, is open as a tourist home/inn. There are sixteen bedrooms, four of which are in the outside turrets. Hear what Post has to say about his dream come true during the media interview.

DEMOCRATS: ROBAMAS - 21st Century Zombies!

HT - Snopes

I just couldn't resist this!




From Bob Hope's The Ghost Breakers

The IMDb contains this summary ...
Mary Carter inherits her family's ancestral home, located on a small island off Cuba, and, despite warnings and death threats, decides to take possesion [sic] of the reputedly haunted castle. She is joined by radio broadcaster Larry Lawrence who, believing he has killed a mob gunsel, flees New York with his butler, Alex. Once on the island the threesome enter the eerie castle and after viewing the ghost of one of Mary's ancestors and fighting off a menacing zombie, they find the key to the castle's treasure but are interrupted by an all-too-human foe. [Written by Doug Sederberg {vornoff@sonic.net}]
I realize some day they will come and get me, but some things are just too good to pass up!
