Described by one reviewer as a “meticulously researched love letter to horror hosts and the films they show,” this book takes readers on a journey through the best TV horror films, beginning with the 1930s black-and-white classics and ending with the grislier color films of the early 1970s. The author also explores the horror hosts, who introduced the films and offered insight into the plots, actors, and directors.
