Happy Halloween!! WKBW Halloween show 1973

Happy Halloween!! WKBW Halloween show 1973

I tried to come up with something special for this last post and, whilst rooting through the Internet Archive, I stumbled across the happy finish I know you’re all crying out for. It’s a whole night’s Halloween programming, from WKBW Radio in Buffalo New York. It was broadcast in 1973 and the station brought together [...]

The Pumpkin Eaters

The Pumpkin Eaters

Happy Halloween everybody. Thought I’d celebrate with another zombie cartoon. Hope you like it. And by the way, before you feel like informing me, yes I am aware of the previous take on vegetarian zombies.

Halloween Countdown Part 6: John Shuttleworth’s Open Mind – Ghosts

Halloween Countdown Part 6: John Shuttleworth’s Open Mind – Ghosts

John Shuttleworth is the creation of Graham Fellows. Older readers may remember his first popular character, Jilted John and the pseudo punk hit single Gordon Is A Moron, but today we’re concentrating on John and his 2006 radio series John Shuttleworth’s Open Mind.

Halloween Countdown Part 5: The Haunted Mansion

Disney’s Haunted Mansion ride is perfect, one of the Disneyland classics. It had always been part of Uncle Walt’s plans, but didn’t come to fruition until after his death. The first ride opened in 1969 and is a tribute to the imagination and creativity that Disney had cultivated at their film studios and theme park. [...]

Halloween Countdown Part 4: Late Night Story – Sredni Vashtar

“Do one thing for me Sredni Vashtar” OK, this is a Roomyverse scoop. I can’t find this video anywhere on the web, outside of file sharing sites or as a download at the always excellent Cosmobells. The only place you can watch this TV rarity is here! Late Night Story was a 1979 BBC2 series [...]

Halloween Countdown Part 3: The AFN Frankenstein Hoax

Poor old Carl Nelson, an innocent Armed Forces Network radio announcer, who, back in 1952, was the victim of a Halloween hoax so effective that he fainted live on air. Stationed near the “real” Frankenstein castle, five kilometers outside of Darmstadt in Germany, Carl was told to report to the castle and broadcast live from [...]

Halloween Countdown Part 2: Forklift Driver Klaus – The First Day On The Job

Halloween Countdown Part 2: Forklift Driver Klaus – The First Day On The Job

What’s Halloween without a horror film and this German training film from 2000 certainly falls into that category. Staplerfahrer Klaus – Der erste Arbeitstag (Forklift Driver Klaus – First Day On The Job)  parodies the work safety films of the 1980s by turning the accidents into a full blown splatter film. Directed by Stefan Prehn [...]

Halloween Countdown Part 1: The Mix Tape

Halloween Countdown Part 1: The Mix Tape

All this week, leading up to Halloween, I’m going to be posting ghoulish goodies for any fiends out there who get as excited about Halloween as I do. I thought we’d kick things off with a mix tape,  grave robbed from all across the internet, and stitched together by my own, shaking, hands. It’s alive [...]
