A story written and illustrated by the late, legendary Edward Gorey is coming to the big screen. Gorey's "The Doubtful Guest" is being developed by Walden Media - creator of the 2006 film The Chronicles of Narnia - Fox 2000 and the Jim Henson Company.
If this move adaptation is done well, it should be a sleeper hit. Gorey's work and art was dark, but it was always amusing. And no discussion about Gorey is complete unless you mention his fantastic animation on the PBS Mystery series.
If you want to look at some of Gorey's work, Salon has an excellent archived link here.
