had also been forewarned that I had to tread lightly, as this was not her favorite subject.
According to Kasey and many others, Elizabeth could never bring herself to enjoy the accolades of playing Samantha Stephens. She suffered inner conflict and emotional turmoil over the very thing that brought so much joy to millions of people the world over.
I was able to talk with her for a little while, so knowing her feelings about Bewitched, I prefaced the conversation with, “I’m the guy you probably never wanted to meet… But I have to tell you how much I love and adore you, and everything you ever did, because Bewitched literally changed my life!” She was actually attentive so I proceeded to tell her how. I explained the Bewitched… Again! premise and she actually said that she liked it (then again, what else would she say to a fan… in public… at a funeral… of “Darrin”…?)
She had been very sweet and very cordial, but also politely trying to get away from the conversation. I don’t think she really knew what to say, and wanted to avoid talking about Bewitched. She explained that she had “moved on” from that part of her career, but was quick to acknowledge that no matter what she did… And that was when I politely interjected, “Even if you shot the President”…. And she laughed and said, “Exactly! Whatever is written about me will probably say, “Former Bewitched Star Shoots President…” and that was more or less, the extent of our conversation. No, I did NOT ask her to twitch her nose and no, it was not the time or place to ask for a photo.
But despite her misgivings, Elizabeth Montgomery was an incredibly warm and wonderful human being whose time on Earth was cut way too short.
The following evening, Kasey and I decided to break out the Ouija board, which we had done quite often before. I know what you’re thinking, but it was so much fun and led to quite an experience.
After only a few moments of playing around with the board, we were both certain that we had Dick “coming through loud and clear,” and he sounded very angry ! (Work with me here…) He seemed to be annoyed with Albert, his partner at the time.
To make a long story short, Dick seemed bothered about something that he had put on a piece of film and had apparently hidden in the shower head in the upstairs bathroom!
Our mission (should we decide to accept it) was to retrieve it, and give it to Elizabeth Montgomery, who would know exactly what to do with it! Okay, I know it sounds a bit far-fetched, but I swear to you, that was the message that came through that night on the Ouija board! We recorded it on a cassette so anytime you can come and hear it! LOL. With that, Kasey and I found ourselves off on yet another adventure!
Enlisting the aid of Sandy Gould, we managed to get Albert to invite us over to dinner. Oh yes…!
As luck would have it, the small downstairs guest bath was also being remodeled and out of commission, which coincided perfectly with our plan.
Kasey came prepared with a pair of needle nose pliers hidden in her purse. Sandra had a wrench! Sometime during the course of dinner, she quietly slipped them to me, and I politely excused myself to go to the restroom. Just as we hoped, I was directed upstairs !
Kasey and Sandy kept everyone busy as I unexpectedly encountered two upstairs bathrooms; a master and a guest.
I chose the guest bath first, where the shower head unscrewed easily.
But much to my disappointment I found NOTHING !!
Knowing that time was fleeting, I quickly rushed into the master bath, pliers in hand, to find that this shower head would not budge an inch, no matter how hard I tried!
Also knowing that one can only go to the bathroom for so long before people begin to worry, I had no choice but to go back downstairs and tell the gals what had happened when no one else was listening. Needless to say, we were very disappointed. And Sandy, who didn’t want to give up, kept wanting to go
