Book Reviews of Chicago TV Horror Movie Shows: From Shock Theatre to Svengoolie

Book Review: Greatly enjoyed this book!
Summary: 5 Stars

Not being from Chicago didn't prove to be a stumbling block in enjoying this wonderfully written book. It is obvious that the author meticulously researched and compiled the information, and did so with a loving attention to detail. Even though this book focuses on Chicago television hosts, its content manages to serve as an examination of an extinct cultural happening, the children's horror movie host.
