When Reggie is bringing Mike home from Morningside Sanitarium in P2, Reggie's house explodes as he is pulling into the driveway. The Tall Man's "welcome home" to Mike and revenge on Reggie for robbing him of Mike years earlier by blowing up his own house to evade the Tall Man. Incidentally. if i remember correctly. that pic in P3 is of Reggie's real life 1st wife and one of his daughters. These characters of Reggie's family : wife Celeste, daughter Bonnie, & Aunt Martha, are never on film, but Reggie is talking about them to Mike as they pull into the driveway and see Reggie's house explode. -Prymal

Off the subject here, but speaking of real life family in P3, i do believe that the nurse at the hospital that Reggie checks in with before entering Mike's room was Michael Baldwin's real life wife (now divorced)...

That is correct. Jennifer played the receptionist/nurse. Also, did you notice that the nurse and doctor leaning over Michael were Kat Lester and Angus Scrimm (looking as he does in normal life)? Nice inside joke there. :-D

You will not believe this, i did see Kat Lester, but no i did not pick up on Angus!! How utterly bizarre that i missed that. I feel like the Tall Man will now exact a pound of flesh for this oversight, but then again, that is some great acting on Angus's part for playing himself and not being recognized!! Also, on the story that i am now working on, i do refer to a "Dr. Scrimm". how strange...

outside of Reggie's family, the lady that played Myrtle in P1, didn't she play on Sanford & Son?

She's not an actress. She was the Coscarelli family's maid.

I always thought the wife in the pic of Reggies family in part III looks like JoBeth Williams from Poltergeist
