Today I have an essay up at Lessons from my Reading. It’s about those old-time monster movie hosts, some of whom are still hanging on. Seems the last paragraph of my guest post got cut off for some reason, so I’ll include it here:
By the mid-’90s, most of those horror hosts had been phased out around the country. A few limp along to this day. I hear Son of Ghoul is still at it; I once got to meet him at a fan convention and tell him how I’d been glued to his show. The late-night horror host is a unique piece of Americana that’s faded away, one I’m happy to have experienced at the end of its run.
