Halloween • Disc-O-Teen • Alex Chilton • The Letter • 1967

• TV horror-host John Zacherley Halloween Dance Party featuring The BOX TOPS • The Letter TWICE •

When Creatures of the Night appear, rest assured that Zacherley is near! Enter his world for some fun and a thrill, but do so carefully and of your own free will!

Happy Birthday, Zacherley!! The Dungeon Gang here at the Zacherley website and all of the staff of Chiller Theatre Inc want to wish John Zacherle a happy 90th birthday! Zach shares his birthday with fitness guru Jack Lalane who is 94, and Beverly Hillbillies star Donna Douglas who is 75. We wish the best for our favorite horror host and hope he'll be with us for many years to come!

Many of the "Disc-O-Teen" kids went on to lead interesting lives. According to Semon-Krauss, one manages ex-Beatle Pete Best and another married a member of the British rock band Procol Harum. Richard Scrivani of Bergenfield wrote a memoir titled "Good Night, Whatever You Are! My Journey With Zacherley, the Cool Ghoul," which was published by Dynoship in 2006.

In 1970, Domaniecki won the regional "Miss American Vampire" contest held at Palisades Amusement Park to promote "House of Dark Shadows" (the first of two movies based on the Gothic soap opera "Dark Shadows"). All regional winners were flown to Los Angeles for the final competition on Regis Philbin's show there.

According to Domaniecki, she and a fellow finalist, Sacheen Littlefeather, were paired up as hotel roommates during the "Miss American Vampire" finals. Littlefeather won the contest; three years later, she made headlines for rejecting an Oscar on behalf of Marlon Brando over a standoff between authorities and activists at Wounded Knee, S.D.

Show canceled

According to Joe LoRe, former cameraman for "Disc-O-Teen," the show was canceled when Channel 47 switched to a Spanish-language format.

As for the time Jim Morrison stumbled around the "Disc-O-Teen" dance floor, many former dancers recall that Zacherle conducted a bizarre interview with the Doors singer (who died at age 27 in 1971).

One witness was Marsha Silvestri of Jersey City.

"We assumed they (The Doors) were stoned," Silvestri says. "They were very spaced-out, especially Jim Morrison. Zach tried to interview him, and he hardly said a word. A lot of the kids thought it was strange."

"I don't remember that," Zacherle says with a laugh, "but everybody who was there tells me it happened that way, so it must be true. I just remember Jim Morrison walking by me in the middle of a dance. He said to me, "This is the damned-est show I ever saw in my life.' "

Zacherley Remembers 'Disc-o-Teen'!

SEVEN-DAY HALLOWEEN-WEAK! DAY 3: (Pt. 1) ALEX CHLITON and THE BOX TOPS PERFORM 'THE LETTER' 1967John Zacherly's DISC-O-TEEN HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

"An incredible find--and the tape is in such great shape after 41 years!"- DISC-O-TEEN VIEWER "I remember Jim Morrison walking by me in the middle of a dance. He said to me, 'This is the damnedest show I ever saw in my life.'"- John ZACHERLEY ABOUT THIS CLIP: John Zacherle* (aka Zacherley), TV horror-host of "Disc-O-Teen,**" hosts this 1967 'Halloween Dance Party' episode, featuring, The BOX TOPS--The Letter. ABOUT ALEX CHILTON AND THE BOX TOPS APPEARANCE: "Alex Chilton and the band don't perform, but their hit single, "The Letter" is played twice during the show. The band endures Zach's jibes, including lessons on how to flirt with teenage girls from New Jersey...The Box Tops chat it up with the horror-host while they plug their album, an upcoming European tour, and a show at the Cheetah Club in NYC! "The Letter", The Box Tops' first of ten hits reached #1 in the fall of 1967. **ABOUT DISC-O-TEEN'S FORMAT: Only two programs remain of over 700 daily Disc-O-Teen episodes aired in the New York City/New Jersey metro area between 1965 and 1967 on WNJU-TV, Channel 47. ABOUT ZACHERLEY: What really made JOHN take the job as host was being able to host the show as Zacherley--and that he loved rock and roll. He brought along "Gasport" and "My Dear" as well. ZACHERLEY says about the show: "It was really experimental. The producers gave me a lot of flexibility. We'd try something. If it didn't work we wouldn't do it again. Fridays were theme days when the visitors (student dancers) would dress up depending on what the theme was. One Friday was gangster day, another was Roman toga day. It was a wonderful three years, but then all good things have to end." AFTER THE DISC-O: Zach became a DJ. A listener whose father hired Zacherey says, "I remember that he played something from the Dead Boys' first LP and also held up a copy of Pink Floyd's Ummagumma." WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DISC-O-TEENIEBOPPERS? Many of the "Disc-O-Teen" kids went on to lead interesting lives: A Miss Littlefeather won the "Miss American Vampire" contest, AND three years later, made headlines for rejecting an Oscar on behalf of Marlon Brando over a standoff between authorities and activists at Wounded Knee, S.D. Another manages ex-Beatle, Pete Best. And another married a member of the British rock band, Procol Harum. Richard Scrivani of Bergenfield wrote a memoir titled "Good Night, Whatever You Are! My Journey With Zacherley, the Cool Ghoul," published in 2006. ZACHERLEY AND THE DOORS: The Doors made their first TV appearance on Disco-Teen. Jim Morrison stumbled around the "Disc-O-Teen" dance floor, and many former dancers recall Zacherley conducting a bizarre interview with the Doors' singer. "We assumed they (The Doors) were stoned," a dancer says. "They were very spaced-out, especially Jim Morrison. Zach tried to interview him, and he hardly said a word. A lot of the kids thought it was strange." At a recent Chiller Theatre Expo Zach had a real treat. Ray Manzarek of the Doors stopped by his table for a chat. He remembered being on Disc-o-Teen and wanted to thank Zach for the great time that he and the other Doors members had had. ***(THANKS TO ALL THE VIEWERS, FANS, WRITERS, YOUTUBERS AND COMMENTERS WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THIS READER'S DIGEST VERSION OF JOHN ZACHERLEY AND DISC-O-TEEN, AND ESPECIALLY TO THE ORIGINAL POSTER OF THIS CLIP--NICHOPOULOOZA) ALEX CHLITON, THE BOXTOPS PERFORM THE LETTER ON DISC-O-TEEN AFTER THE JUMP VIDEO IN PART II ALEX CHLITON - THE BOX TOPS - THE LETTER - DISC-O-TEEN

"Well, he was a man named Elvis Presley and Ive never heard of him, but I'll say one thing, he's different"

1. Fifty years ago today Sikeston first caught a glimpse of an up and
   coming 20-year-old Elvis Presley when he performed at the Sikeston
   Armory.
2. 
   Tickets were only $1 for adults and 50 cents for children.
3. 
   Approximately 100 people turned out to see Presley on Jan. 21, 1955.
4. 
   In 1954 Presley began his singing career with Sun Records label in Memphis.
5. 
   When Presley first performed in Sikeston, no one really knew who Presley was, according to Earl Wade of Blodgett.
6. 
   Even Wade admitted he didn't know Presley when he met him.
7. 
   "I was in the National Guard (in Sikeston) and I was helping set up chairs at the armory," Wade recalled.
8. 
   During this time Wade was interrupted by a young man trying to get into the front door of the Armory.
9. 
   "Lloyd Johnson and I had the door shut and he was rattling the door and said he had to go to the bathroom.
10. 
    So we showed him."
11. 
    Later the same young man returned carrying a Piggly Wiggly sack with something pink and silky hanging out.
12. 
    "I thought it was a pink, silky dress, but he said it was suit he got from Beale Street," Wade said.
13. 
    The young man proceeded to ask where the dressing room was, Wade explained.
14. 
    "I told him where it was and said but that's for Elvis Presley.
15. 
    He said, ‘I am Elvis Presley,'" Wade laughed.
16. 
    Byron "Barney" Caldwell of Sikeston was also working for the National Guard when Presley visited.
17. 
    "I rented a piano for $15 for him so he didn't have to rent one," Caldwell said about the first visit.
18. 
    "I watched him perform and it was a small crowd.
19. 
    I didn't think too much about it."
20. 
    Wade remembered a few parents not being impressed by some of Presley's moves.
21. 
    "Some of the mothers took their daughters out when he started doing the
    hoochy-coochy stuff," said Wade, referring to Presley's then detested —
    and unheard of — gyrating moves.
22. 
    Caldwell called Presley a regular fellow.
23. 
    "It was just people weren't familiar with the type of twisting and hadn't come around yet.
24. 
    He probably did more of that on ‘The Ed Sullivan Show,'" said Caldwell, now 78.
25. 
    When Presley returned later that year on Sept. 7, attendance topped
    1,100 at the Armory, with some even turned away at the door.
26. 
    Johnny Cash also appeared with Presley both times.
27. 
    This time Presley was dressed a little better and arrived in a pink Cadillac, Wade said.
28. 
    His parents, Gladys and Vernon Presley, were also along.
29. 
    "He went from rags to riches in a hurry," Wade said.
30. 
    A then 20-year-old Chris Tyrone from Portageville was fortunate enough to witness one of Presley's visits.
31. 
    She said she learned of Presley's visit from an advertisement in the local newspaper.
32. 
    "I just remember I was just thrilled to see him," recalled Tyrone, now of Sikeston.
33. 
    "He was just starting out.
34. 
    Presley rocked the Armory with tunes like "That's All Right, Mama" and "Blue Moon of Kentucky."
35. 
    "He's just a young kid full of energy and didn't have an ounce of fat on him.
36. 
    I remember he couldn't be still.
37. 
    He was always jumping or jerking, and his hands were always sweaty.
38. 
    I remember shaking his hand and feeling wetness.
39. 
    I ll never forget it," Wade said.
40. 
    As time goes by it's definitely difficult to remember exact details
    about Presley's visits, but there are some memories that will never
    fade, Wade noted.
41. 
    "I overheard him (Presley) say he didn't drink, didn't smoke and his biggest weakness is women," Wade said.
42. 
    Caldwell's most memorable moment of Presley's visit was when he left after his first performance.
43. 
    "The first time he was here in an older car that didn't run good and he parked it behind the Armory," Caldwell said.
44. 
    "When he left, some of the fellows had to push him to get him started,
    and I remember him turning back and waving to us as he drove out of
    town."
45. 
    Wade remembers Presley, who was a relative to Floyd and Mary Eta
    Presley of Sikeston (Presley's grandfather, .D Presley, was the brother
    of Floyd Presley), as a happy go lucky and a good looking kid, he said.
    
46. 
    "I could tell he was going somewhere.
47. 
    The younger generation liked Elvis and he would cut up a lot during his shows.
48. 
    He was kind of a clown," Wade said.
49. 
    That September was the last time Presley performed in Sikeston.
50. 
    In late 1955, his recording contract was sold to RCA Victor.
51. 
    By 1956, he was an international sensation.
52. 
    But Wade didn't let the opportunity pass him by.
53. 
    Right before Presley left the second time, Wade captured a photo of Elvis in front of his Cadillac.
54. 
    Caldwell recalled returning home to his wife following one of the Presley's performances.
55. 
    She had asked him who performed that night at the Armory.

56. 
    Caldwell told his wife: "Well, he was a man named Elvis Presley and Ive never heard of him, but I ll say one thing, he's different.

57. 
    We're transitioning into something different, and I m not sure what it is — only time will tell."
58. 
    Photos and information about Presley's appearances in Sikeston can be found in "Did Elvis Sing in Your Hometown?"

319: And the Call Was Coming from the Basement This American Life

This American Life

10.31.2008 Originally aired 10.27.2006 Click to Enlarge 30-second Promo Full Episode Buy CD   Email to a Friend   Permalink

319: And the Call Was Coming from the Basement For Halloween, scary stories that are all true. Kidnappings, zombie raccoons, haunted houses—real haunted houses!—and things that go "EEEEK!!!" in the night. Plus, a new story by David Sedaris, in which he walks among the dead. Prologue. Host Ira Glass and Albert Donnay read a true ghost story that appeared in a medical journal in 1921. After a "Mrs H" and her family moved into an old rambling house, strange apparitions started appearing...until her brother-in-law figured out the real cause of the ghostly presences. (6 minutes) Act One. The Hills Have Eyes. Some of the scariest stories happen when fluffy, innocent creatures turn murderously evil. This American Life producer Alex Blumberg tells one such story, about a raccoon gone bad. (11 minutes) Song: "Evil," 45 Grave Act Two. The Hitcher. Writer Bill Eville and his brother are picked up late at night on the side of the road...and not taken to their destination. (9 minutes) Act Three. And the Call Was Coming from...the Listeners! Weeks ago, we set up a special 800 number for listeners to call with their true-life scary stories. Over five hundred people called. We hear a sample. The scariest stories we got all had one thing in common. (9 minutes) Act Four. Graveyard Shift. One Halloween, David Sedaris decided to skip all the fake monsters and ghosts and zombies and visit the real thing: dead people. In a morgue. (14 minutes) Song: "The Boogie Monster," Gnarls Barkley

The Perfect American

I was looking for an image From The Silencers (it's on this week) and I found some images at this site. Later, when checking my Technorati stats, I discovered that this guy favorite d me.....spooky! So I went back for a second look.... and fell into the vortex of his mind. This is a special experience if only for it'sobsessiveness and pathological imperfection. It's broad and deep and weird and to put it in his words: craunchy. KNSFW

Bientôt Halloween, un récap des tenues sexy de Paris Hilton

Halloween, tout le monde connaît cette fête comme celle où on fait peur aux enfants, où on frappe à la porte et demande des bonbons, où on se raconte des histoires de fantômes, etc. Pour Paris Hilton, s’est surtout l’occasion de se déguiser, euh…déguiser ou s’habiller normale ?

Alice au pays des merveilles, militaire, policière, ou simplement en lingerie, Paris Hilton profite chaque année d’Halloween pour s’exhiber davantage qu’à son habitude. Elle écume alors chaque année les fantasmes masculins, mais alors, quel sera-t-il cette année ?

Rollers of the week:

1. The American who has reached the border states of consciousness, he went for a beer in a supermarket, but mostly wandered in other spaces, trying to get back on their feet. And still won. Strong sight!
http://rutube.ru/tracks/2496948.html

http://rutube.ru/tracks/2496989.html

3. Sasha Gray is known to many, if not all. But after this episode it becomes apparent that it is primarily an actress, and only then - the porn ...
http://rutube.ru/tracks/2508905.html

4. The fashion for gay divorce is gaining momentum and moves from the U.S. in friendly Ukraine. A local media to help them in this. Well, we also do not stay away ... :-)

The Dick Cavett Show

Sigma Kid Marla Feldstein saw Dick Cavett get out of a car in downtown Philadelphia and screamed at him, "Do a show on Bowie!" Cavett allegedly turned and mumbled "OK." On 2 November 1974 Marla and her crew attended the filming of the Dick Cavett Show in New York…. "He was so nervous, we kept clapping at everything to make him feel better. He does about an hour and sings Young American, 1984, Can You Hear Me and Footstompin'." The show was broadcast on 4 December 1974 by NBC in America. Following an introduction from the show's host, David performed "1984" and "Young Americans." This was followed by an interview with Dick Cavett and then David performed "Footstompin'." The other number - "Can You Hear Me" - was not televised.
