This DVD is a look at the nation's tradition of horror hosting. Hosts of all kinds were once a staple of TV. But as production demands and the availability of cheaper syndicated material changed the local TV business model, local hosts were also one of the first things to go. With interviews and footage from major hosts from the 1950s to the present day, such as Zacherley, Vampira, Ghoulardi and others, along with memories from celebrities and fans who were influenced by these hosts, you'll follow this American folk art form from its glamorous beginnings, through repeated waves of popularity in the 1960s and 1970s, to its scrappy resurgence and survival in the current age of cable access and the Internet.
