All week long I’ve been watching scary movies like Trick R Treat, Night Of The Demons, and The Thing. Tonight, I viewed Paranormal Activity for the first time, but since it’s nearing my bedtime, I don’t think the last thing I see before closing my eyes should be a film about an invisible demon terrorizing a woman while she sleeps. As luck would have it, a package arrived earlier today with a DVD of The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss: There’s Nothing To Fear In Here. What better way to erase the spookiness of my horror movie marathon than with a Dr. Seuss tale about how there’s nothing to fear?

I put in the DVD, which contains 3 episodes from what was a Jim Henson Company television series that ran in the mid-1990s, and what’s the first tale about? A little girl who can’t sleep at night because there’s banging coming from within her closet and she’s convinced the noise is being made by monsters living in there.

Umm, how is this helping me forget Paranormal Activity, Dr. Seuss!?
