@ShadowXtrem420 - I definitely respect him. He's the man who gave us Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. However, The Bottle Imp is one of my favorite supernatural short stories. The intriguing part of the story is the stipulation that the current owner of the bottle has to sell it to somebody else for less money that what he paid for it. Of course, this makes it difficult for each successive owner of the botlle to facilitate a transaction to get rid of it.

I have read Treasure Island, The Black Arrow, and Kidnapped. Thanks for posting this; it helps me see better into the mind of the author.

The shot at 1:50 makes him look like Remus Lupin; Kinna appropriate given his most famous work. :-)
Because of Stevenson, I always write down my nightmares in the hope that I might just be getting a career handed to me. :-3
He was also a big inspiration for me last November during NaNoWriMo (a 50k-word-novel-in-30-days writing marathon) because he wrote Jekyll & Hyde at a rate of over 10k words a day. True, he had cocaine, but we have flavored coffee creamer! :D

@eutytoalba That flavored coffee creamer might resemble cocaine nowadays. LOL :)

Thanks very much for putting up these wonderful pictures - most of which I've never seen before. Congrats also for the music - which works so well. Is it from a Scottish folk band?

The Music is from the Album (I think) Jockey To The Fair by Micheal Ó Súilleabháin

@Ealasaid17
THIS IS NOT SCOTTISH MUSIC
Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin is one of Ireland's best known musicians. He has over ten CD recordings on release of his own compositions and arrangements performed by the Irish Chamber Orchestra under his direction. As a pianist, he is widely acknowledged as having originated a unique Irish piano style out of an Irish traditional base.

@JEBPTE I never said it was Scottish and am well aware it is an Irish artist playing the music. So what!!! It's good music!
