Now you can experience all the thrills and chills of WPIX-CH 11 New York City as a streaming service - on the Roku platform. Now is a great time to jump and ride a out of control rollercoaster of frights right thru the month of November just like the good old days. Pull up a chair or relax on the sofa or behind the sofa when the scary parts are on, crack open a root beer. Oktoberfest pretzels(Snyder) or some apple cider and doughnuts.I didn't say it couldn't be hard cider or not your dad's root beer.

WPIX ch 11 in New York was not the only ch 11 that had a Chiller domain where all the scary,creepy crawly "things" hung out on Saturday afternoons and dominated late night fare on the weekends.. no there was 11 Alive in Pittsburgh. The New York Chiller ran for several decades and there is a Chiller Theater Expo or Con in Meadowlands, NJ twice a year- once in the fall and a spring event as well. Which when not hosting Ch 11's dishes of the macabre presided over the event Horror Host John Zacherly or just Zacherly to his fans...He was an enormous talent and simply a nice all around ghoul. So Chiller has had an amazing effect on the horror industry and cons.

I always looked forward the the annual Monster Fest. I would actually start planning out my viewing schedule to catch as many of the films as possible. Once thee lineup was announced, Here you won't have to do that it is all here for you to watch at your convenience and making it very easy to throw or host your own party or a binge fest. Listed be is some breaking news a few of the titles and categories you can choose from.

Without further ado I bid you welcome to Chiller Theater my dear guests.My name is Crookshank. Please make sure to stay the course and don't wander off! Especially after dark and nearest the midnight hour. But I can guarantee... a most enjoyable, melodic performance, baying at the moonlight. Usually after they have had a bite to eat. Oh those children of the night, love to sink their teeth into . Well enjoy, while you can!!!

** This just in- the animals have taken over and Grizzly (1977) can now be seen from the safety of your homes...

See the The original scream queen-FAY WRAY in King Kong(1933) , Doctor X (Who is the Moon Killer?) and Mystery at the Wax Museum both co-starring Lionel Atwill

**** Breaking News**** now added Mexican/Aztec Mummies/werewolves, Paul Naschy, Hammer Films titles(inc Curse of Frankenstein) * my favorite 60's Euro- Werewolf in a Girls Dormitory featuring many actors from the Edgar Wallace mysteries by Rialto and the cult classic Dracula vs Frankenstein

** Disclaimer-no monsters(naturally occurring or created), aliens, beasts,dinosaurs or mythical beings were injured during the preparation of this post**

Left: Japanese release-1967-Frankenstein Created Woman

# expanded Werewolf, Dracula and Frankenstein categories now includes Frankensteins's Bloody Terror(Paul Naschy-first go round as the cursed werewolf) and Frankenstein and the Monster From Hell/Frankenstein Created Woman plus the rare-hard to find Hammer classic-Kiss of the Vampire with all of it's creepy gothic settings, a very spooky/haunting score from James Bernard and Clifford Evans as Professor Zimmer with a somewhat different take on the vampire "hunter". Oh and we could not fail to mention Ghost of Frankenstein starring a young William Smith...

Now Godzilla up to 28 monstrous titles stompin it's way to your living room( and some non Zilla-Toho films as in Atragon/Dagora: both rare and with a large cut following.

Cormans' The Raven -my favorite Vincent Price/Peter Lorre/Karloff outings

Television-now includes episodes of Land of the Giants and Thriller with Boris Karloff

All for a 1.99 a month... far less than a comic nook these days and basically that would have been two issues of Famous Monsters. Content added weekly/daily...this is bigger than any beast or monster to ever invade Tokyo or New York.

So if you like things that go bump in the night, boo not hoo/who, gothic estates with long winding driveways, crooked trees and sinister looking servants. And you don't have one next door then this is the channel for you. I personally gotta run. It's time for one of my favs- Werewolf in a Girls Dormitory. Plus I forgot to pull up the drawbridge and put out the alligators. It helps keep those pesky insurance agents away or on their toes. So till next time ...
