Colonel March of Scotland Yard
Based on a character in John Dickson Carr’s The Department of Queer Complaints, Boris Karloff plays detective Colonel March. In this 26 episode television series we find Colonel March solve “unsolvable” mysteries. Being only 30 minutes long the mysteries don’t go very deep and in in the case of at least one episode, had a very “Scooby Doo” vibe to it. As of this writing it is available on TUBI
The role of Colonel March allowed Boris, then age 65, to go back to England to go into semi-retirement and visit old friends.
Mr. Skygack, Mar 30, 1908
Saw odd tribe of earth-beings busily engaged in destroying house ~~ As means of hastening process of destruction, made use of apparatus containing smoke, fluid and noise ~~ Attached to apparatus were long artificial snakes ~~ One earth-being fidgeted around barking at others through horn.

Semana Santa, 1941
Semana Santa is the Spanish celebration for Holy Week leading up to Easter, which dates back to the 16th century when the Catholic Church decided to present the story of the Passion of Christ in a way that the layperson could understand. From that point on, scenes from the story of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ were told through a series of processions through the streets each year. (tripsavvy.com)
