Horror Host 2019 Retrospective: Dr. Morbius

Real name: Bruce Gant
Years active: 1986-1988






One of the later hosts from Iowa, Dr. Morbius hosted Saturday Nightmare on KCRG Channel 9 in Cedar Rapids. A stand up comedian, teacher, and police officer, Gant donned the cape of the good doctor, even releasing a rap album. From what little I've seen, Morbius seemed almost like Count Floyd from SCTV, what with the accent and random howls.


Gant passed away in 2013.
