These are the ones that I know of from backset sources taht are gay or have been rumored to be gay:

Dennis Parker (EON - did gay porn)
Jeff Branson (AMC - is said to be gay and hung)
Joel Crothers
Louis Edmonds
Jonathan Frid
Susan Flannery
Irene Dailey
Constance Ford
George Reinholt
Lee Patterson
Michael Lipton
Irving Allen Lee
David Oliver
Paul Keenan
Dack Rambo
Peter Reckell (bisexual)
Jason Brooks (bisexual)
Anthony Geary
Christian LeBlanc
James Mitchell
David O'Brien
Grayson Hall

many of them are out but many are not.

Dark Shadows & Edge of Night both had a huge group of gay actors who were known to party together on the boat of one of the actors. Lots of drugs and sex went on supposedly on that boat.

It is weird that years later you look back on it and at one time almost all the major heart throbs (male wise) were closeted gay men who came out much later in life.

I do know that Joel Crothers was still trying to keep his hidden and was planning to marry Veleka Gray at the time of his death. The rumors are about him are still very painful for Mrs. Gray. She was deeply in love with him and still is.

I remember when I was first told about Connie Ford and Irene Dailey it was the biggest shock to me esp. when I found out from a friend at AW that they had dated. I still cannot see that one.

Oh I forgot about Farley Granger who has been in the relationship with the former ATWT producer, Robert Calhoun, for so many years.

And there was Frank Provo and Frank Pickard who were "gay partners" for so many years. They wrote some great soaps together.

*clears throat* When you use the term "hung", do you mean well-endowed? :embarassed:

Peter Reckell and Jason Brooks?? Really?

The ones on Dark Shadows alone that are rumored to be gay or were out are:

Jonathan Frid
Grayson Hall
Louis Emonds
Christopher Pennock
Mitchell Ryan
Anthony George
Christopher Bernau

I forgot about Ryan, George, & Bernau when I was typing before.

Anthony George & Chris Bernau were two of the other male leads of the 70's who were gay at the time.

There was another actor on Dark Shadows that collapsed from a drug overdose at one of the parties on that boat, but I can't remember his name anymore. He never acted again and died years later at home.

Gregorzick might remember who he was.

Yes a guy on the old World of Soap Themes board was supposed to be dating Jeff Branson and said he was very well endowed. And he emphasized the endowed part - said at least 8 or 9 inches.

It has been rumored about Peter being bi for several years.


And was Jeff Griggs supposed to be gay too or was he just a porn actor?

At one of the old Peter Reckell boards I used to be a member of at Yahoo, there was a guy there who said he saw Peter naked at the gym before and he is supposed to be well endowed too. that has nothing to do with this subject but thought I would throw that out there.

I just found the quote he said about Peter. For some reason I saved it - it might have something to do with my love for him:

"Peter was the type of guy who had nothing to be ashamed of in that area. In fact he wasn't. What most guys came out to and from the showers with their towel around their waist, Peter's was always thrown across his shoulder."

When someone pushed him on giving a size he told them soft it had to be at 7 to 8 inches long.

Oh Rick, I put a rated PG-13 up there. We have at least one member who will go off about the subject matter we drifted too - so I put that as a disclaimer.

That's the rumor Sindacco, but it was not a gay movie. It was an action detective movie that had all kinds of sex in it - both hetero, bi, and gay featured.

It was made while Peter was made sometime before Reckell returned to Days I think. I used to have all the info on it. It used to be all over the Internet too, but all of it has been removed.

The film was made and set to release and at the last minute Peter and Jason who were 2 of the main stars didn't want it released. It was not a porn movie perse but on the same lines as Caligula was. A mainstream movie with sex in it.

The movie was forgotten about until someone in Canada got hold of the reel and made copies of it and tried to sell them on Ebay. Jason and Peter's lawyers had it removed and only 1 of them supposedly got delivered. The guy is supposed to have it but cannot let others see it. But he is the one that did describe some of the scenes in one of the Yahoo groups before.

Many know about the movie being made now but very few have seen it.

Whose dick is actually 7 or 8 inches soft? That just seems like wishful thinking on a fans part because hard that would be at least 10 or 11 inches. I am not saying you are lying Steve, I just find that very hard to believe.

JPL on OLTL has my gaydar in the repair shop, anybody feel the same way I do?

Dack Rambo


I think he was Bi. I read on the net that after it came out that he had HIV, he was very open and disclosed that he had sex with both men and women.
