Welcome! For six years, 1979-1984, I was host of a San Francisco-Bay Area TV series, CREATURE FEATURES. I was preceded by Bob Wilkins, who first introduced the series in 1971 and carried through 1978. I say a mere six years . . . and yet all these years later the memories of the are thriving as never before. The devotion of you fans continues to amaze me. I am thankful to all of you for remembering those wonderful years, and for attending our events, and for picking up on my DVD and book releases, which I try to refresh annually.The purpose of this website is to keep alive your memories of CREATURE FEATURES, which for 14 years was the most popular TV show in the Bay Area, and ranked highly among all the horror-host programs that predominated on American TV during those magical years. I intend to keep the mythology of the show alive as long as I can. And now, come on in . . . if you dare!
