The Errol Flynn Blog

With the History Channel debuting its “Curse of Oak Island” series this Sunday, this is a great time to explore Errol’s many treasure hunting adventures – from his youth in the South Seas through his time in the Caribbean – and all those in between.   His interest in digging for treasure on Oak Island may have been frustrated by previous claims and legal impediments, but I’m not fully sure to what extent he researched, visited, or examined the island – or sought the right to dig. 

Anyone out there know??  … It’s a mystery, involving an enigma.

We honor writer/actor/producer Steve Hayes Borthday today on The Errol Flynn Blog! Steve turns 83 today, and finds himself a bestselling author on Amazon Kindle for many of his print edition westerns and mystery novels as 2013 comes to a close. As many of you know, Steve knew Errol Fynn personally, and stayed as a houseguest at Mulholland Farm while trying too get a sponsor to become an American Citizen which Errol had promised to help him accomplish. Born in England, Steve came to America with the idea of becoming an actor appearing in small roles until the writing bug bit him and he became a successful screenwriter. He wrote scripts for many of the Golden Age TV shows, and became a successful producer, too.

You can red more about him on his website.

Happy Birthday, Steve!
