His name was Marshall Teller, he used to live in New Jersey across the river from New York. It was polluted and full of crime and he loved it. But his parents wanted a better life for he and his sister so they moved to a wholesome and squeaky clean place. Sure his new hometown may look normal enough but nothing could be further from the truth. Just underneath the surface Eerie Indiana is the center of weirdness for the entire planet. Don’t believe him? He spent three decades proving this truth. In the early 1990’s TV creators Jose Rivera and Karl Schaefer joined forces with Joe Dante, the director behind films like Gremlins and The Howling. They were inspired by the success of Twin Peaks to tackle their own show about a small American town plagued by weirdness, but their creation would be something completely different from anything else on television. Premiering on NBC in 1991 Eerie Indiana was about the weirdest town in America and the two boys determined to get to the bottom of it.
