TESTIMONIALS

"I have to say for the, especially, the Salem’s Summer of Sam, the research is phenomenal, the things you’ve found are amazing…"

"I had given Bill (Asher) a packet, which included a DVD of "FANatical", and Peter Alachi's books on the TV Land "Samantha" Statue, the filming of the Salem "Bewitched" episodes, and photos taken of the cast and crew while filming in Gloucester. He really enjoyed seeing the items, and as I looked though the scripts, Bill was reading Peter's book, smiling all the while!!!"

 

"A perfect preface to the upcoming release of Season 7."

"It is quite rare for a fan of Bewitched to come across behind-the-scenes stories not all ready found in what is considered to be the Bewitched Bible, Herbie J. Pilato's Bewitched Forever, but thanks to Peter Alachi (author of the cool 3-D booklet chronicling the arrival of the Samantha statue in Salem), we have some from the Salem episodes, considered to be the most memorable of the series, in his book Salem's Summer of Sam. The Salem episodes are a rarity in Bewitched history in the fact that they are the only episodes to have been filmed out in the "real" world, specifically Salem, Magnolia and Gloucester, Massachusetts. Peter, a resident of Salem, has gathered information from newspaper and magazine articles from the time and interviews with people who were in the Salem area at the time and condensed it into his book which is accented by rare photos of the cast, most coming from the personal collection of Mike Linquata, owner of the Gloucester House restaurant that was featured prominently in Episode #205: "Darrin on a Pedestal".

A great nugget of lost Bewitched trivia is the information given that Dick Sargent and Robert Brown (The Fisherman's Memorial statue) were not the only ones to play the bronze object of Serena's affection. It turns out a Salem College student, Gary Richard, was chosen to stand in for a few scenes as well as act as crowd control for all the adoring fans that came to view the filming. Not to mention the fact that the actual locale of the filming of the statue scenes took place a few yards down from the actual statue. There are many other little or unkown tidbits in this great addition to the Bewitched library, which no Bewitched fan should be without."
