Creatures of the Night That We Loved So Well: TV Horror Hosts of Southern California

Jeepers Creepers Theatre in 1962 ignited a love of horror hosts that was the beginning of a life-long addiction for many fans. But as much as the audience loved the shows, they never knew the horror that occurred off-screen -- live adult stage performances, lawsuits and cutthroat competition. What started off as risqué and sexy by 1954 standards ended as risqué and sexy by 1984 standards. Horror hosts affected 30 years of television history... a phenomenon that is not known by today's generation but well remembered by the "Baby Boomers" and now chronicled for future generations.
