At midnight, I'd always watch "Ghoul's Paradise".

"Good evening. And welcome to Ghoul's Paradise...".

Nice. A horror host kind of show? We had one for a while when I was a kid but I can't remember the name. He was pretty forgetable anyway.

Yep. It was a spooky show.Years ago.

And now, the opening line is coming back to me...

"Good morning. It is morning, you know. Just about half a minute past the stroke of midnight"...

That's cool. No telling how many local stations had some version of a horror host. Campy or funny or sexy or all of the above. I enjoyed it.

And of course, there's Elvira.

Yeah, but you forgot the BEST one, the one that only lasted one season -- George Peppard as Banacek.

I loved Banacek. The one about the railroad car stolen from the moving train was great.

Great topic!

TOTD:
I have loved many shows over the years, both old and new.
Some of my current favorites include Mystery Science Theater 3000 (It's not on anymore, but almost every episode is on Youtube for me to watch at my leisure), Smallville, Monk, Reaper, and Heroes.
