Ive always loved this show since i was a little kid (however i wouldnt really recommend this to kids, its a very adult tv show, ive just always loved horror). Tongue-in-cheek and ironic horror at its finest...creepy and spooky...its all here.

Watching this show really takes me back to my childhood. My grandmother and I used to watch this show together every Thursday night. I bet I have seen every episode and I still love watching them. They will never get old.
