Horror Host 2021 Retrospective: The Cool Ghoul II

 Real name: George Cavender

Years active: 1970 to 1994

Horror host legacies aren't unusual by they are not common. While the first was still on the air, Cool Ghoul made his debut on WJAN-TV Channel 17 out of Canton but the show ended in 1972.

In 1984, however, the public taste had changed and the second Ghoul came back on Thriller Theater on WOAC-TV Channel 67 out of Canton and Akron. Sadly the show ended in 1986 but come the 90's he came back again but this time as a series of Halloween specials on WOIO-Channel 19 out of Cleveland. 


Funny enough he actually got his start at the age of 16. The first Cool Ghoul didn't seem to mind the act either, so kudos to that. He had a website with streaming, but it seems to have gone dark.
