William Socks
Description: William Castle was one of Hollywood’s greatest showmen and most influential filmmakers. He came to the attention of Columbia Pictures for his talent for promotion and was hired. He learned the trade of filmmaking and became a director, acquiring a reputation for the ability to churn out competent B-movies quickly and on budget. He eventually struck out on his own, producing and directing thrillers, which, despite their low budgets, he effectively promoted using gimmicks, a trademark for which he is best known.
Description: William Henry Harrison was the ninth president, and only served for 31 days before he died. It's commonly reported that he died of pneumonia, caught after giving a long inauguration speech in the rain without a jacket. Recent research suggests his death was more likely a result of bacteria from the "night soil" near the White House. Good times!
