Top 5 Horror Cartoons that Need to Make a Comeback!
4. Tales from The Cryptkeeper
I don’t know a single person who doesn’t harbor a weird love for “Tales from the Crypt” and its ghoulish host, The Cryptkeeper. As a matter of fact, let’s keep it that way because I certainly don’t need that kind of negative bullshit in my life. Such as with “Toxic Crusaders,” whoever looked at the violently adult nature of the late night HBO program and decided to make it kid-friendly, kudos for your large set of balls. You’re a scholar and a gentlemen, and there shall be songs written about you. Of course again, the material was watered down considerably for the younger audience, and children were the heroes of the series with The Cryptkeeper introducing a new tale each week. John Kassir returned to voice ‘Keeper in the series that debuted in 1993, while in the second season we got to see the old EC Comics’ Vault Keeper and the Old Witch, both rivals of The Cryptkeeper, fighting for a host spot on the show, only to be outsmarted by him in each episode. The show took a five-year break and returned with a final season in 1999, entitled “The New Tales from The Cryptkeeper,” but that’s the last we saw of the animated spin of the series. While I’m curiously excited for a brand new “Tales from the Crypt” from M. Night to make its appearance, I would also love to see take this animated series take another run in the right direction.
