Lon Chaney Famously Observed
"There's Nothing Funny About a Clown in the Moonlight"
Lon Chaney Never Met a Horror Host
From the Dawn of Broadcasting, Horror Hosts
Flickered on the Murky Fringes of Television.
With the release of Universal's SHOCK! Movie Package in October of 1957,
These Graveyard Gadflies Exploded Out of the Shadows and into
The Nation's Living Rooms.
Michael Monahan and Sandy Clark spoke with the Pioneers of this Distinctly American Genre and came away with Stories that reach far beyond the Restrictive
Frame of the TV Screen, and Root themselves Deep in the Heart
of American History and Culture.
"The place to begin when examining the horror host phenomenon is Michael Monahan's American Scary. Conversations with the Kings, Queens and Jesters of Late-Night Horror TV. Monahan loves and understands the genre, and his interviews, including his interview with Vampira, are an amazing archive of television and horror history."
- W. Scott Poole, author of Vampira - Dark Goddess of Horror
"This book is an indispensible chronicle of the local ghost hosts and friendly phantoms that beckoned young and old alike into the dark ride...a séance, resurrecting voices from a bygone era that still have the power to frighten and delight"
- Heath Holland, Cereal at Midnight
