Meet
and Greet our Guests : Friday 9:00PM
A look into the weird worlds of comic book horror.
Join Rob and attending guests as we peer into those dark crevasses of weird comic book horror and discuss the odd elements, and the creators themselves, that make these stories exceptionally horrific.
Creepy Magazine, Errie, Tales of the Zombie, Dracula Lives!, Monster World, Tales From The Crypt, and much more will be dragged from the dark.
Bring YOUR favorite terror tale!
!Shock Theatre Reanimated!
Remember those late Saturday night antics with Chattanooga's own horror hosts, Dr. Shock and Dingbat? Do you recall Nurse Goodbody? How about The Dragon Lady? (what then-healthy young man doesn't?)
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Join HallowCon and BJ Darnell in this horrific hour as we take a look back at a long running favorite... Shock Theatre! Shock Theatre ran from 1968-1975 on WTVC-TV and was considered a fan favorite during its rein. Tommy Reynolds, WTVC-TV's then-program director, and Dan East (the genius behind the puppet, Dingbat) entertained many a date night with their tongue-in-cheek humor and will forever burn bright in the memories of long WTVC-TV viewers.
Bring your memorable tales with you, or the scream you hear... may be your OWN!
We are all familiar with Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker, and H. P. Lovecraft, but there are many other authors whom have faded into veritable obscurity. Join Joe Dickerson of Aberrant Dreams as he introduces some of the lesser known horror writers of the past, many delving into familiar topics long before some of the other well known authors.
The Wierd Tales Big Three
Have we ever thought about how H. P. Lovecraft's, Robert E. Howard's, and Clark Ashton Smith's writing evolved over time and what makes them popular even today. Join Joe Dickerson of Aberrant Dreams in this timeline study of the of the works of the greatest authors of weird fiction and their tragic ends.
