The Gothic Dispatch (Feb. 19) ran through a list of some of Edward Gorey's influences:
...who made Gorey who he was? A cultural vampire with famously insatiable thirst, Gorey once told an interviewer that he was always considering ways he might incorporate what he’d seen and read: “I keep thinking, how can I use that?” So, what did he see and read? How did he use it? Who were Edward Gorey’s biggest influences?
Frankly, I was impressed with the Hokusai comments. There's also a mention of Louis Feuillade's crime serial Fantômas, which Goreyana wrote about several years ago.
