A talented actor, comics creator, and beloved Dark Shadows cast member with an electrifying presence and personality, Christopher Pennock was taken far too soon when he left this plane of existence in 2021. As part of his extensive body of work in theatre, television, and film, Chris appeared in several projects helmed by filmmaker Ansel Faraj. These include Theatre Fantastique, Doctor Mabuse: Etiopomar, The Most Haunted House of Venice Beach, and The Job Interview. Ansel returns to the podcast and is joined by actors Elyse Ashton, Douglas Eames, Kelsey Hewlett, and Kelly Kitko as they reminisce and share memories of working with Chris. Special thanks to Ansel for editing this episode and including several rare clips, photos, and an interview featuring the legendary Christopher Pennock!
