OK< I just joined & read through all the old posts & realized that's
it for the last 9 months! I was thinking an interesting side topic
for Eerie Memories might be the reason you liked the show so much &
why you think it sticks with you?
I'll start... :)
I grew up in Indiana so as a kid it's aalways cool to have a show
based in your 'hood. Moreso, the area I lived in was East Central &
just on the outskirts of the city of Muncie, Indiana which became
famous earlier in the century for being listed as the most
statistically average town in America in a study called, I believe,
Smalltown USA or something similar. It seems doubtless that the
producers were aware of this & therefore chose it to be the region
depicted in the show & they even mention Eerie is the most normal
place on Earth. To me at the time, I felt like I WAS Marshall Teller.
:)
I had a friend, female, so not exactly the same stats as Simon *wink*
but we were interested in the darker side of things like roaming
around cemetaries, psychic phenomenon, ghosts, etc. Not in a satanic
way or anything, just in the way teenagers have fun. As you can
guess, I related quite a bit & really enjoyed the show.
To this day Halloween is my favorite holiday (YEY it's almost here!!!)
although I now live in Hollywood, California & not Indiana.
Anyone else care to share? Where is everyone from?
