Mister Chaney vs Mars

DarkoGalahad on an Eerie Indiana/Creeped Out crossover

[froodle]

Is Simon Holmes from #EerieIndiana #TheCurious from #CreepedOut? The Curious wanders around and weird occurences are not too far behind and he collects things from these weird events. Marshall and Simon used to collect things from the weird occurences that happened in Eerie. We know that Marshall eventually ends up in the lost hour but we never know what ends up happening to Simon. Their goal was to essentially prove the weird exists and that is why they collected evidence. Simon's parents didn't much care for him so if he disappeared to find evidence of the weird and stayed young (first episode proves it is possible) they probably wouldn't even notice or care. Simon was constantly over Marshall's house and never once did his parents come looking for him. The Curious could have a similiar backstory given he freely roams around. It is nice to think that Simon would continue on with this collecting of evidence even if Marshall wasn't around. Obviously these two shows aren't related but it is some interesting head canon. Also Creeped Out was partially influenced by Eerie Indiana and that could be why those connections are there. And yeah I know The Curious is just meant to be like an urban myth.

SATURDAY MORNINGS FOREVER: EERIE, INDIANA

[froodle]

Saturday mornings haven’t been the same since the 90’s. Waking up early on your own accord, not for school or because your parents made you. We simple couldn’t miss what Wolverine was getting his claws into, what wild adventure Earthworm Jim was on, or who Batman was chasing around Gotham.

Created by Jose Rivera and Karl Schaefer, with film director Joe Dante as a creative Consultant, Eerie, Indiana was a series about a small town.

The show ran on Sundays on NBC during the 1991-92 season. It blended comedy with serious tones, which, along with episodes directed by several feature film directors and numerous references to old films, caught the attention and positive reviews of critics.

Its easy to say that Eerie, Indiana is one of the most unique, spooky, and fun kids TV shows of all time. It tells the story of Marshall Teller, who’s recently relocated to the creepy suburb of Eerie, Indiana (pop 16,6661)

The Final Exhumation of TALES FROM THE CRYPT: A Post-Credits Post Mortem

[froodle]

Welcome for the last time, kiddies! While we buried the column already, I’m just not the kind of ghoul who can spend seven seasons in a well-appointed crypt and not have a few tips, tricks, and treats for those who have as little regard for their well-being as I do when it comes to television programs. So, to celebrate, summate, and reward terrible behavior, may I present…

THE CRYPTIES!

crpties 1 - The Final Exhumation of TALES FROM THE CRYPT: A Post-Credits Post Mortem
The REAL horror is my photo editing skills!
The first and only annual award show for a column covering a 30-year-old television show is here! I alone nominate, vote, and decide on the winners, but really, I do it for the people.

First up: The Essentials The category that I’ve deemed the “Essential Episodes” is basically the Hackademy Awards “Best Picture” of the lauded Crypties. If you want to introduce or reintroduce yourself to the series but don’t have the time or inclination to watch the whole thing, this list is my cream of the crop from each season. Some episodes are on the scarier side, some are the funny ones, but all of them are well-made and carry the fundamental Tales from the Crypt spirit. My favorite favorites are bolded.

(Season one is omitted because it’s only six episodes long, its quality is consistent, and even if you don’t plan on mainlining the whole series, you should just watch the first six because they’re fast, fun, do a crackerjack job at setting the series’ tone, and there are zero calories.)

Season 3: Episode 9: “Undertaking Palor” – Probably my favorite episode of the entire series, this is a gem for fans of The Goonies, Monster Squad, Eerie, Indiana, and other misbegotten-plucky-adolescents-getting-into-weird-jams. For everyone else, there are some real toe-curling deaths here, and John Glover brings his entire, legendary ham to the table.

EerieIN.com at the Wayback Machine

If you've ever seen the Eerie Indiana tie-in books, you might have noticed the website advertised in the back pages: EerieIN.com

Surprising nobody, twenty years later this website no longer exists. However, parts of it are archived at the WayBack Machine.

Sadly, the snapshots from 1999 just show a white page with a parent directory, so we'll never get to see what frames-and-flash masterpiece was originally used to promote Eerie.

However, in 2001 an Eerie Indiana fan named MariaC bought the domain and turned it into the Eerie Examiner:
