It’s always a great day when Michael and Jessica post a Grimm adventure 😊

[@cindyann9571]

Facts.

[@jaymeojeda1160]

What a great adventure today by Michael

[@ladybellaim]

I agree!!!!!

[@csh43166]

Indeed!!!

[@beckybarker3928]

[@MrEaglesfan40]

Happy Saturday everyone

[@Tommass79]

Judy Garland singing over the rainbow stiring a pot of soup as you eat cookies in her home with your captured imagination and innocences... just priceless 😢 and what a great man to share his stories incredible collection to the public like this investing in and sharing his successes full respect.

[@KaiTiura]

How cool to see Richard live talking about his life and work! I grew up watching Leave It To Beaver (NOT on reruns!). This is a great score, this interview, Michael. Kudos! What a collection. You guys are simply the best at what you do. Good morning Ghosts!

[@Ease54]

Remember the episode when they got the monster shirts and the Beave got busted at school? Richard was a monster kid...how cool! I'd give my right bolt for one piece out of his collection!

[@martinsane]

Wow, simply wow. Listening to Richard is surreal. So knowledgeable, passionate and such a fan of all he talked about. Thanks for doing these things and in this video, thanks for taking the backseat and letting Richard talk and talk and talk, I appreciate that restraint, respect. Excellent.

[@Zombie_Trooper]

He's so right about The Ring display being probably the scariest part of the whole exhibit. I don't get scared by this stuff, and The Ring never did much for me personally, but standing there in front of that display gave me serious goosebumps. It's truly unsettling.

[@treetopjones737]

Amber Tamblyn is daughter of Russ, who co-starred in classic horror "The Haunting" 1963 ( based on the book ), and decades later played Doc Jacoby on Twin Peaks.

[@soulserver127]

This is one of my all time favorite episodes of grimmlifecollective. Not just because of Rich Cornell but because of his stories. The Wizard of Oz section really brought happy tears to my eyes when he was telling the story of Judy and her step son. I could imagine every detail as he was telling the story. Thank you so much for this! Always a journey watching your videos :)

[@msheline]

This video is so awesome! And well deserved for Carrie Fisher. Always in our hearts. Loved listening to Richard & seeing all the neat spooky things. Thank you for all you do Michael and Jessica. Love you guys!!!

[@martinvegas1327]

Star Wars and Blues Brothers👍

[@williammitchell4417]

Good plan Michael, go to a museum and possibly find something terrific. It was great listening to the stories about what those in entertainment actually worked in the business. Happy Halloween 🤯 a mind-blowing experience!!

[@emmamarshall3854]

I cried what Billie her daughter said about her mom and then sprinkled glitter on the star.

[@justinlane1980]

Man Richard is cool! I could listen to him tell stories about his life and collection all day! Thanks for sharing this with us!

[@crinque666]

Never thought I could ever be emotional watching a movie prop video, but this one did it for me. It's such an amazing collection I have to visit 💀

[@chrismcdowell7138]

Others have suggested this … Netflix, Disney, Prime, whoever need to hire you, to do these documentary features. It’s amazing you’re presenting these, basically for free, on KZbin. I think you need an agent, to expand your opportunities, because what you do is awesome!

[@lauranagle1577]

Nothing makes me happier than listening to people talk about what makes them tick. Rich Cornell lives and breathes his collection and the history of every piece. I loved this video so much and I hope I can visit someday. Thanks for sharing this (so pleased for you guys to see your name on the sign out front!) As always, lots of love from Ireland x

[@MR-ly4xt]

I think I watched this whole video with my mouth open, I was in such awe! What an amazing museum! I want to go so badly. Thank you so much for filming this, Michael. 💜👏

[@chuckprefume3218]

Absolutely love your content! An honor to be a ghost!

[@grimmlifecollective]

Thank you and glad you are a part of the afterlife as well.

[@kuppycakes1097]

Been waiting all week for your next video😊 can't wait for all the England videos😁🎃🎃🎃

[@MB1BUMPER]

His stories are fascinating about all the items he has.

[@juliethorburn7737]

Happy to join the ghost club love Jessica and Michael

[@RedFactionMaps]

True story, years ago Rich hosted an elaborate halloween party (He used to host them yearly, not sure if he still does) and I was hired to scare all the actors and producers who showed up to the party, it was awesome!

[@kelleydeclue4100]

What were you dressed as scaring actors and producers?!

[@RedFactionMaps]

@@kelleydeclue4100 The masks were kinda generic but we basically looked like hairy monsters and they had us hide in the dark shadows around the driveway entrance and we would jump out at them whenever people would arrive and walk down the driveway.

[@briancarpenter7179]

My wife and I went through that exhibit a couple of days after they opened. Amazing collection. Absolutely worth the price of admission. Great video again, Guys. ✌️😎👍

[@twobrokeguyz1214]

This collection is absolutely.... There's simply no words! It's truly outstanding! Can you imagine Judy Garland being your next-door neighbor? Wild!

[@libratude9595]

This was really fun. It's amazing how much knowledge this man can retain 🧠.

[@KaiTiura]

Sweet!!! Been looking for a new video from you two.

[@grimmlifecollective]

We have been planning 4 massive trips for this year and filming a lot…you are going to lose your mind when you see what’s coming.

[@KaiTiura]

@@grimmlifecollective damnit! Now I’m going to be watching my phone all the time for notifications!!!😬😳👻🤣 (‘Cause, you know, I don’t already…🙄😂)

[@variousJnames]

Always so great to see someone who enjoys horror and so much horror cinema memorabilia as much as he does!

[@mvddic]

Rich seems like such a down-to-earth guy. Hope to visit Icons of Darkness someday. Such cool stuff in there!

[@chrisitl]

Seems like an incredible place. My husband and I are planning a trip to LA this year to take our 6 year old to Universal studios for the first time, thinking we might go here too. We all loved the sci-fi, fantasy, horror movies, tv, and books, my daughter included. I think this would be a great place for us to experience together for the first time as a family!

[@CosmosTheMouse]

I saw Rich on the "Collector's Call" TV show. It's nice to know he has all this stuff because you can tell he's really into it.

[@joannekinnally7530]

What an amazing collection and tour! Thank you so much for taking us along! You guys are always out besting yourselves! ❤️

[@andreabruson5558]

and this only only the 50% of the collection, as he said!

[@debbiedunn8600]

I remember when you were before. Loved Richard telling us how he got started collecting and all of the things he has done. I could listen to him talk about his collection and life all day. Michael and Jessica you guys are the best. Thank you for sharing with us all your videos and adventures. Happy Halloween..

[@catmom7447]

This was absolutely an amazing video. It would take more then 30 minutes to go through this and see everything. My favorite part was of course the horror part. Thank you, Michael and Jessica, for another great video.

[@anthonysnyder197798]

We need a part 2!! I loved this episode. Could have watched for a hour.

[@bobsteel6916]

Who would have thought comedy like Leave It To Beaver would lead to this. Your guest explains it well. ☮☮☮ GRIMMLIFECOLLECTIVE ☮☮☮.

[@denisematthews6215]

I was blessed to have met Margaret Hamilton in a Chicago production of A Little Night Music back when I was in High School, along with four other ‘theatre nerds’ I was in school with. I’m 66 now , so you can imagine how long ago this was. She was so kind and gracious to us goofy teenagers. She stopped and talked to us, and we absolutely loved her❤️

[@hissatsu4937]

What a collection. Almost all of the greatest stuff from the past 30+ years is there.

[@genep85]

More than really impressive for me, BIG RESPECT.

[@aaronfrahm623]

Absolutely loving the ghost club. Thanks for a new adventure. Grimm for Life!

[@csh43166]

Mr. Cornell is such an interesting and great man!! And what an awesome, fun place!! Seeing all of these wonderful objects literally gave me goosebumps!! I agree - Heath Ledger was the best Joker, ever. One of my favorite performances of any movie ever!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Michael and Jessica for taking us with you on this special adventure!! Happy...Halloween!! 🎃💀🦇😈💚🧡🖤

[@Mist3rData]

This is a downright awesome museum! Rich sure knows how to tell a good story. One personal side note though: a real sci-fi corner has a Star Trek collection ;)

[@neallucas9680]

Your videos are phenomenal. Took me an hour to get through this one, constantly rewinding and re-watching. This is better than watching regular TV.

[@rachelmoore1119]

Another one from Mike and Jess

[@xitsmedianax]

I LOVE this segment. Love seeing the classic monsters and ghouls!!!! 👀 He's got such an awesome collection! Thank u for taking us with u on this tour!! 👏

[@heinrichlabuschagne6237]

Hands down the best horror/thriller documentary channel there is you and ghouly make the places you go to feel soo alive and lived in, sending love from south Africa stay Grimm ☠️👻🕸️🕷️

[@random22026]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="86">1:26</a> 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="123">2:03</a> 'The Beav; -- now THAT'S HORROR 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Michael Grimm, you are an outstanding videographer/cinematographer and interviewer: steady images; pertinent questions; and you let your interview subject SPEAK! Rich Cornell has an encyclopaedic knowledge of his collection; has a wealth of wonderful anecdotes; and you let the man speak! Honestly, your shout-out on that publicity banner at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="86">1:26</a> is richly deserved. 😌🎥🎬🎞📽

[@jonboz7585]

After each of your presentations, I always say, “They’ll never be able to top that one.” I just said it again, but I know you’ll prove me wrong. The Grimms, awesomeness forever!

[@whenson6549]

This was fantastic. The guy was so enthusiastic and enjoyed his collection and seemed super excited to share his stories. Thanks for another Grimm Life Adventure.

[@THeilman]

The reputation Universal has for trashing its legacy is the stuff of legend. From garbaging the creature suit, the Bruce animatronics and dismantling the Orca from Jaws. Absolutely shameful.

[@kyleechristina1231]

What is most important for all the videos that you do is show the history of everything in the stories and material you cover, watching this and seeing actual movie costumes and props is amazing and the love for everything displayed is shown all throughout! Seeing things from so many different movies, horror and not, seeing Hunger Games and Harry Potter here as well as Bela Lugosi, Frankenstein and Star Wars! really is something special! It’s like you are physically there, walking through a cool museum of amazing movie history! I have such an appreciation for everything you do Michael! Thank you! ❤️👻

[@bahadortanzif8932]

Wow

[@heresjohnny4836]

not gonna lie even after all his HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE collected ;pieces, the story of getting judy garland to sing for him is the ULTIMATE FLEX ever

[@lindadenneypu6315]

He'll yeah what a magic moment in life

[@SpooksMin]

This is AMAZING!! I wanna go there so bad. I LOVE seeing the passion that Rich has about every single part of the collection.

[@milissavallez4022]

My son watched this video yesterday… took him to Icons of Darkness exhibit today. It was such a great experience. Our tour guide was funny and so kind. All the staff is super knowledgeable and amazing. Hubby and I want to return with the kiddos.

[@Thecorgially]

Hard to believe that little guy who played Beaver's friend turned out to have such an amazing career as director, etc. and amassed this huge and awesome collection. Loved the tour.

[@tommyphillips6584]

Was in the area 4 yrs ago and didn’t know about this place(if was there then). This is an amazing video and tour with Richard explaining everything.

[@sardav160479]

Thank you for my signed photo and stickers they arrived safe and sound and I love them.

[@wysiwyg2006]

My goodness, what an amazing collection of original props, maquettes and costumes. I'd spend ages there. Gutted I will never see this in person as I'm in England. I think that queen and eggs were used in Alien War live action attraction that used to be here in the Trocadero, London

[@paulthompson4332]

WOW, the time, effort, and money that has gone into this impressive collection is astounding AND, the history of Hollywood all gathered in one spot, incredible So much good things to say about this video, but the 4 displays I personally loved the most....The Mummy (I want to take it home with me), Pinhead (Amazingly displayed with its mouth opened like that), Edward Scissorhands (Love Johnny Depp), and for me, The Crow (Great movie...R.I.P Brandon Lee) Thank you Michael and Jessica AND Rich Cornell Happy Halloween🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

[@Luusika]

I can't even begin to imagine all the security needed for such a place 24/7. What an absolutely massive pleasure to witness this even via youtube, thank you Grimm!

[@MichelleSmith-xy7hk]

Wow, I’d never heard of this museum before but within seconds I knew I was adding it to our list of places to visit when we go to LA this summer. What a collection and I could listen to Rich talk all day. His passion for the collection comes across so vividly and he has really put a smile on my face. Brilliant video Michael.

[@richardcoombes9491]

oooh well done micheal and jessica a cool vlog as always happy halloween to u both 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻

[@user-pf6bm5hb2k]

Way cool..You know it's a fantastic day when you get to spend time with such a 🎉 celebrated director in Hollywood! You could have spent all day there with him and it wouldn't be enough...All I can say is AWESOME!!

[@phoenixgal2278]

Wow, Michael you always out do yourself in every video you produce! However, this time you really out did yourself with this great "Icons of Darkness" museum. I loved all the stories Rich told about his life, the people he knew, and how he acquired each piece of memorabilia for his exhibit. When I come L.A. I definitely want to see this museum! Thank you!❤ P.S. I miss Jessica!

[@jessicalambert6879]

I love this video I love the stories this guy shared it’s so cool how he started collecting things and how many famous people he knows

[@reneewilliams2200]

The Crow with Brandon Lee is my all time favorite movie and to see that he had one of his costumes in there was awesome. Love all your videos!

[@bluemartinjr]

That tour is pretty awesome!! The fact that he has the original Joker suit worn by Heath Ledger blows my mind!!

[@YoungSummer]

THE SPIDER HEAD FROM THE THING?!?!😭😭😭 I yelled! Long live Rob Bottin. ❤️‍🔥

[@StarRavensGothicEternity]

Wow wish I could go there, thanks so much for this opportunity to have a look around such a amazing museum 🦇🦇

[@ruggedlyhandsome744]

I don't even have words for this! If I ever get the chance to visit The Darkness, I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep my composure. The level of pure joy and udder astonishment that's contained within there should be guarded more than Fort Knox. Those items are ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS! I mean, the level of loss would be incredible if anything ever happened to that place!

[@cvbluegrasspatriot9157]

It's great to see past stars doing something AWESOME with their life!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS M & J for bring this to us!

[@bkkorner]

Very cool tour! Loved hearing about the different costumes and their history...you hit it out of the park again...well done!!

[@monicaw5036]

This was probably one of my most favorite episodes! And what a man to know and call a friend! Gosh I'd love to just be able to spend the day with him. His knowledge alone is astonishing! Plz tell him next time you see him, he has a super fan❤

[@harveybojangle475]

What a great video...and what a great host! You can tell that Rich Cornell truly has a passion and enthusiasm for his impressive collection. And, it's reassuring to see that so many Hollywood treasures are in such good hands.

[@elgato894]

most amazeing story eating cookies while over the rainbow is being sung to you,it dosent get any better than that,THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS BEAUTIFUL STORY,and mr grim & jessica you still tops..

[@gaylegidgetBlue]

Thank you Michael & Jessica! I am absolutely fascinated with every one of your adventures! You make me feel like I am right there with you too! Thank you!🙏❤️

[@power-of-overdrive]

Amazing collection with amazing stories behind them! A must-see in Hollywood for sure. Rivals the Hollywood Museum itself!!

[@mannybravo237]

Wow, Rich, dude, you're the Man!!!! Thanks for the tour, very beautiful, and scare-Y! And calling the raptors 'villians' lol. The only thing missing: Princess Leia slave bikini!

[@1SeanBond]

Appreciate you taking us along with you on all these amazing adventures over the year's! Sure appreciate you Mike & Jessica! Just amazing! Ty Luv&Peace✌🏼 Cheers! To continued success friends. 🤝🏼😉

[@JillDials]

First of all my late Grandfather loved Leave It To Beaver so I would watch it with him. From time to time I will still watch it. Secondly my late mother's favorite film was Wizard Of Oz. A good majority of my family and I are horror fans. That is awesome that you two got to be there at the same time that Carrie Fisher's Hollywood Walk Of Fame star unveiling was being held. Another great Grimm Adventure!!! I would love to visit here someday.

[@lisad476]

This tour was amazing...ty. So great to see Rich get excited on each one and was such a wealth of knowledge...cool

[@jimmyamico4713]

This is one if not my favorite episode I love looking at this old Hollywood memorabilia it is breathtaking❤

[@ramiroquezada664]

My favorite KZbin channel , & always make amazing videos about horror.😎👍.

[@laboy14]

Awesome to see thee actual owner of the collection there giving the tour… I’ve gone to the museum myself with my best friend and it’s pretty fantastic ! but seeing the actual guy who owns it is mind blowing because that was one thing I was wondering which is who he was

[@mary-anneswanson1428]

Hi Michael and Jesica :) Well you did it again :) What a amazing video :) I was thoroughly engrossed in it from the first to the last . The history and the host Rich Cornell were so much fun . If you get the chance please pass on my thanks to Mr.Cornell for such an awesome tour and thank you for bringing this to us :) Happy Halloween

[@stevepeterson5943]

Wow, this is stunning and really a project of passion. I mean, who else could love it more than the guy who went next door as a kid, to have cookies at Judy Garland's house! Everything piece in there is an icon, good grief!! Oh, and was hoping to see the legend Bela Lugosi too! I've always loved Halloween, and me and Bela have the same birthday : ) moo-ah-ha haaaa!

[@jasunhuerta5587]

OMG, they made a wax figure of the Ortega (aka Wednesday)!!??.... that's intense. The coverage of Michael Keaton's Bat suit and Heath's costume was so fine--- course anything BAT oriented, I love. And again, I will need to watch in a 2-parter, cause of the busy life I have currently, but I'm glad Carrie Fisher is FiNALLY getting a Star on the walk of Fame--- Damn, about time. Thanks, GriMMs, for doing this episode for us again.... All the Love..... :^)""""""""""""

[@jamesbodnarchuk3322]

Very cool! Thanks for exploring❤

[@markc6968]

Mesmerising stuff, what an amazing collection Richard has. Would love to see it all one day. Your videos have kept me well intrigued when I’m not busy at work. Look forward to your content when you come across the pond around Halloween to England where I’m based. Keep up the fantastic work 👍

[@marcvialli8469]

What a great video. Loved seeing the Aliens, T2 and Back to the future stuff. My favourite films. But at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1959">32:39</a>, the moment I saw Brandon Lee’s costume, my jaw dropped, and I welled up. Thank you Grimm and Rich.

[@laurenced2916]

Wow he actually has the spider head from my favourite film The Thing. Mind blown by this video!

[@eklypised]

This brother has some pure gems in his collection..one of a kinds

[@ClovyTV]

I visited Icons of Darkness last month on a trip to LA. I had it on my to do list because of your last tour! It did NOT disappoint. Can’t wait to visit again.

[@nightmaresanyone]

This was just ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY phenomenal to see!!! Thanks so much Michael! Richard

[@DrnkTheWildAir]

Oh my goodness… what an amazing place. Thank you so much for taking us with!❤

[@cindyhenning7832]

I can’t get enough of you and Jessica😌I watch at night every night when I get to settle in for the evening❤️

[@Fonso13]

Icons of Darkness exhibit is incredible! If you are a fan of any of these movies you have to go an experience it for yourself. My favorite piece of among many is definitely Brandon Lee’s hero costume from The Crow. Love seeing my friend Mikes cameo during the moving of all those Dino Heads.

[@ryanwebbaustralia5232]

I like the bit of showing Heath Ledger’s Joker suit in the Dark Knight Movie, Heath was a great Australian actor, he did a great job of playing the joker in the Dark Knight.

[@Liz-cmc313]

Hey Michael and Jessica 🖤....this was so cool. This guy has seen it all. Thank you for sharing this with us. Id be in heaven seeing all this history.

[@KryptonianClone7828]

HOLY FAR BEYOND FANTASTIC! THAT'S ONE OF THE BEST, LARGEST HORROR MOVIE ICONS, AND SYFY COLLECTION EVER!

[@CeriGoff]

My brain literally over loaded, I can't quite cope with that collection. Mr Cornell if you ever read these comments you seem to have lived a dream of a Hollywood life but rather than being at all jealous I just want to thank you for collecting and caring for all those treasures. The Stan Winston work is beyond compare and you have a Queen. Nope, I can't cope. An instant favorite Grimm Life video. Thanks Michael.

[@leesashriber5097]

The ghouls keep pumping out the hits!! This was great, my friends😊🎃

[@Kapricorn1]

What a fantastic tour, seeing Btandon Lee's Crow costume was amazing, loved that film.

[@valearguellova]

Wooow I couldn't believe the amount of treasure were there. Thanks for sharing this 🖤🖤🖤. I think I am not the only person who would like to talk with this man about movies .

[@diamondjoe100]

You have an incredible collection. Thank you for sharing, I would love to visit your show room some time in the future. I would be like a child in awe seeing all the greats in their costumes 👌
