A tribute to Lawson Deming, better known as Sir Graves Ghastly, the legendary Detroit TV horror host from the 1970s and early 1980s.
The tribute will include video clips from the old show and rare photographs provided by family members and fans of Sir Graves. At both shows, there will also be on-stage photo opportunities at intermission in our reconstructed Sir Graves TV show gates.
PLEASE NOTE: At the 2 p.m. show, there will live on stage remembrances from Lawson Deming's two sons. They will not be appearing at the 8 p.m. show.
As part of the fun, we are presenting an anaglyph 3D screening of the Universal monster classic, Creature from the Black Lagoon, in which a team of scientists ventures into the Amazon jungle and encounters a mysterious amphibious creature that becomes enamored with one of the team members. As they attempt to capture the creature for study, they find themselves in a tense battle for survival against the ancient predator.
