Horror Host 2019 Retrospective: Sterling Brewer

Real name: Sterling Brewer
Years active: 1958-1960


Moving east towards Alabama, we take a look at the first host of the Yellowhammer State. Sterling Brewer hosted the Unknown on Birmingham's WAPI Channel 13. Brewer appeared under his own name but the costume was a short of black ghost get up with a flickering candle by him.

Brewer would later gain more fame on local radio and even covered pro wrestling for a time, but he did leave his mark on viewers.

Brewer passed away in 2016.
