<div style="text-align: left;">
As we usher in 2019, I just want to thank you all for making 2018 one of the best years celebrating Vincent Price’s enduring legacy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
It all kicked off last spring when a group of us spent the weekend of 21 and 22 April in Suffolk and East Anglia exploring the original film locations used in <b>Witchfinder General</b>, which celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="Witchfinder General Weekender" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1484" height="473" src="https://www.vincentpricelegacy.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/sweetshop2.jpg" width="630" /> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Lots of new friends were made during our adventures that coincided with Ian Ogilvy (one of the film’s stars) visiting London. While he wasn't able to join us (but hopes to in the future), he kindly signed the fantastic souvenir poster designed by Graham Humphreys that was given out at the end of the tour to each of the attendees. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
By popular demand, our annual walking tour of the <b>Theatre of Blood</b> London film locations returned in the summer, with 30 attendees (our biggest group yet) taking all manner of transport on Saturday July 28 to different parts of London as we sought out some of the most iconic sites used in the black comedy horror. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

It was a great day, blessed with great weather again (I think Vincent was looking out for us). </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1470" height="500" src="https://www.vincentpricelegacy.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/meths-e1546084334592.jpg" width="375" /><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1483" height="473" src="https://www.vincentpricelegacy.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/brentford2.jpg" width="630" />2018 marked the 90th-anniversary of <b>Vincent Price’s Grand Tour of Europe</b>. As such, Victoria Price and myself wanted to honour her dad’s trip by exploring a bit of Europe ourselves as one of our ESC Tours excursions.
Austria and Germany were our destinations and our group had an amazing time in the first week of October visiting Vienna, Salzburg and Munich, with side trips to Colmar in France and Liechtenstein. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Highlights included Burg Kreuzenstein near Vienna (which was used in Mario Bava’s <i>House of Wax</i> homage, <i>Baron Blood</i>), the awe-inspiring ice caves in Werfen, and the Whale House in Frieberg (whose frontage was recreated as for the Dance Academy in Dario Argento’s <i>Suspiria</i>). Plus, we all got a private tour of the real-life Castle Frankenstein near Frankfurt.
Next year, we shall continue following in Vincent’s European footsteps with a trip to Amsterdam and Paris, and we'd love you to join us. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
November was a very busy time as Victoria Price returned to the UK for a number of engagements, including a first time visit to Darlington to introduce <i>Pit and the Pendulum</i> at the local film club there and a return to Birmingham, where she accepted a Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of her dad at the annual Cine Excess conference. This was also attended by Pete Walker, who directed Vincent in <i>House of the Long Shadows</i>.
Our Birmingham trip also included a screening of <i>Theatre of Blood</i> at the Mockingbird Cinema where Victoria wowed the audience with her recollections of her dad making the film back in 1972. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Back in London, Victoria conducted an inspiring talk at the fantastic Cinema Museum hosted by the wonderful Misty Moon gang and also took on another role – as an ordained interfaith/interpsiritual minister – to conduct a wonderful wedding for our dear friends Roni and Stu, who chose <i>Somewhere Over the Rainbow</i>, sung by Vincent, to end the proceedings. Now that was a truly touching moment that will stay with me forever. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
We capped off 2018 with our <b>Yield Up the Mystery Weekender</b>, which sought out places in Norfolk where the spiritual and the spooky connected. It took us from King’s Lynn to Norwich and onto Long Melford in Suffolk via the fabulous ruins of Castle Acre Priory, the original film location used in <b>Tomb of Ligeia</b>. Big thanks again to Graham Humphreys, who conjured up another fantastic souvenir poster for our attendees. </div>

<b>***** COMING IN 2019 *****</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So what’s coming up in 2019? Well Victoria and I are putting the final touches of our Amsterdam-Paris excursion that will take place from Saturday 25 May to Sunday 5 June. We will only be taking a small group, so if you want to join us, please sign up to the ESC Tours website. We shall release full pricing and a schedule in early January.
And if you have ever wanted to spend Halloween in New York, then you’re in luck as Victoria and I will also be conducting a guided tour of the Big Apple in late October/early November. We are currently putting that itinerary together also, which will have a suitably spooky theme, so expect some ghosts, ghouls, the headless horseman and a touch of Price and Poe. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I shall, of course, be conducting another <b>Theatre of Blood </b>walking tour in the summer and another <b>Witchfinder General </b>weekender in the autumn. I have also got a few suprises in store during 2019, with the first one coming in February.
This will be the release of a brand-new limited edition EP by London band The Core featuring Vincent Price reciting Edgar Allan Poe's<b> The Conqueror Worm</b> (from a rare recording never released before). Only 300 copies will be available, and the EP features another amazing cover design by Graham Humphreys. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
This is going to be a must-have collectors item, so if you want to bag yourself a copy then do sign up to the Vincent Price Legacy UK newsletter (if you haven't already) as subscribers will be first in the queue about the release and also will get first preference to join our other Legacy events. </div>

<br />
Having penned a few cookbooks, hosted his own cooking show and demonstrated how to cook fish in a dishwasher, Vincent Price was the original foodie. And he did so love pie! So, I thought I'd follow in his footsteps and participate in this Pieathalon challenge, which is now in its fifth year.<br />
<br />
Basically, what I had to do was choose a recipe from a pre-1990's cookbook, which would then be assigned to another pieathlete, while I would be given my own challenge.<br />
<br />
Obviously, I had to choose something of Vincent's, so I scoured through his cookbooks and found one that sounded rather exotic: a Pineapple Meringue Pie that was served up at Hana-Maui hotel and was included in Vincent and Mary Price's acclaimed 1965 tome <i>A Treasury of Great Recipes</i>.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And what did I get? Well, it was really hoping for something savoury as I don't have a sweet tooth, but I ended up with another meringue-based recipe called Puddin 'n Pie from Rice Recipes Old and New Presented by Comet Rice. Poppy sent me the entire pamphlet: which you can view here: <a href="https://lib.msu.edu/exhibits/sliker/detail.jsp?id=3894" target="_blank">Michigan State University Libraries - Little Cookbooks: The Alan and Shirley Brocker Sliker Culinary Collection.</a><br />

<br />
Prunes and rice seem an odd combination to me, but I was determined to give it a go. This was quite easy to pull together and thankfully the recipe asked for a pie shell rather ask that I make the pastry from scratch. Once I had put all the wet ingredients together (and it was rather wet looking) I realise I had enough for two pies. As I had bought one sweet and one savoury, I was sorted, and it was going to be interesting to see which one tasted better.<br />
<br />

<br />
They both baked nicely and the texture of the filling firmed up (so no soggy bottoms, yeah!). Then came time for the meringue. Now the quantity of sugar threw me a bit, so I opted to use a gluten free sugar alternative, raw organic crystallised coconut blossom nectar, in the filling and for the meringue. Big mistake! The meringue just didn't firm up at all... so I had to suck it up and use proper white caster sugar. Bingo! Lovely peaks.<br />

It was all back in the oven for a futher 25-minutes and then time to have a slice. I must admit my meringue layering technique needs improving, but the pie actually tasted rather good. You couldn't really taste the prune, but it has a great nutty flavour (thanks to the chopped nuts).<br />

Once the pies had cooled down, I covered them with foil and put them in the fridge for the next day to have for morning tea. The foil was not a good idea as it pulled off all the lovely meringue. And as I didn't label them, I didn't know which was the savoury and which was the sweet. But it didn't matter. They are both delicious and remind me more of a fruit and nut slice than a traditional pie. But I shall certainly try it again. Thanks Poppy! And thanks Emily for inviting me to be a pieathlete.

<u><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">SAVE THE DATE </span></u><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Amsterdam &Vienna | The Two World Capitals Tour </span><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">September 22 - September 30, 2018 </span><br />
<br />
Inspired by the 90th anniversary of Vincent’s Seven Capital Tour of the Art Capitals of Europe, Victoria Price and myself invite you to join us on a cultural tour of two of the cities that Vincent visited in 1928: Amsterdam & Vienna. We’ve planned an exciting cultural itinerary, which will be attractive to both travellers who have never been to Europe before, as well as for seasoned visitors.<br />
<br />
Our new company ESC TOURS creates unique itineraries that include both travel highlights as well as unique cultural experiences that allow travellers to get beneath the tourist experience and develop a deeper connection with each country. This two-city tour includes museums and castles, World Heritage sites, exploring parks and neighbourhoods, food adventures, musical entertainment -- and much more!!
If you are interested in finding out more about this trip, please sign up following this link: <a href="https://www.esctours.com/contact/" target="_blank">https://www.esctours.com/contact/ </a><br />
<br />
You can also email us with questions at exploresavorcelebrate @ gmail.com<br />
<br />
For those of you who have travelled with us before and consider yourselves the more adventurous type, we are also offering an Off the Beaten Track: Austria & Germany trip from 30 September 30 – 9 October. We will only have a limited number of seats for this trip, and first priority goes to previous ESC travellers. If you are interested in this trip – or both trips – please let us know vie email as soon as possible.<br />

While we don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in the UK, I shall be getting into the spirit today cooking up this tasty Pumpkin Pie recipe from Mary and Vincent Price's COME INTO THE KITCHEN COOK BOOK, which was first published in 1969, and got a glorious reprint last year.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>VINCENT PRICE'S PUMPKIN PIE</b> </div>
<ul style="margin-top: 0cm;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.1pt; margin-top: 0.1pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1 9-inch unbaked pie shell</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.1pt; margin-top: 0.1pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1½ cups canned or mashed cooked
pumpkin</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.1pt; margin-top: 0.1pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3 eggs, well beaten</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.1pt; margin-top: 0.1pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1½ cups heavy cream</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.1pt; margin-top: 0.1pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 10.0pt;">¾ cups granulated sugar</span></li>

heat to 350 degrees and bake for 50-65 minutes more, or until knife
inserted in center of the pie comes out with only a few flecks clinging to
it.</span></li>

Legendary horror actor Vincent Price is best remembered for his delightfully scary turns in such classic fright fests as <i>House of Wax</i>, <i>The Fly</i> and <i>Theatre of Blood</i> – and also being the voice of Michael Jackson’s <i>Thriller</i> and an inspiration for fantasy directors like Tim Burton.<br />
<br />
But
Vincent Price was also a Renaissance man with omnivorous appetite for
life, art, travel – and fine food. In fact, in the 1960s, the ghoulish
gourmand and his wife Mary published a number of celebrated cookbooks –
including the lavish best-seller, <b>A Treasury of Great Recipes</b>, featuring a host of <i>Mad Men</i>-era treats, and <b>Come Into the Kitchen</b>, which was devoted to traditional American cuisine. Both of these gastronomic tomes have been given lavish reprints, while <b>Cooking Price-Wise</b>, based on the actor’s British 1970s TV show, will be back in print later this year.
<b> </b><br />
<br />
<b>Conjurer’s Kitchen</b> is proud to
celebrate the King of Horror’s culinary legacy by drawing from those
tomes to call forth gastronomic ghosts of kitchens past iat <b>Birmingham’s Electric Cinema</b>, which will take place over the weekend on what would have been <b>Vincent’s 106th birthday</b> (he was born on 27 May 1911).<br />
<br />
Special guest will be Vincent and Mary’s daughter <b>Victoria Price</b>,
an author and inspirational speaker, who will pay tribute to her dad
with a very personal presentation, and talk about his cultural legacy of
inspirational living, dining, and exploring the world.
Expect classic clips, tasty bites, and a few surprises!<br />
