Lost Origins of Horror Television

9 months ago
34

The television ghost celebrated its 85th anniversary last year. Even I didn't mark the occasion. Few people realize television existed in 1931. W2XAB broadcast many programs, not just the television ghost. Nothing survives. There are no scripts, no audio recordings, nothing. The fact that a picture of the ghost exists is remarkable. Perhaps there are additional promotional photographs somewhere waiting for an intrepid early television enthusiast to uncover them. There you have it, folks. Much of the very origins of television and so on is just gone. Even in film, it's oftentimes gone and lost forever. So there you go. Tales of Lost TV, the television ghost from 1931 to 1933. So if anybody asks you what was the very first horror TV show, this just may very well be it. But you can't prove it to them because it doesn't exist or you can't show it to them anyway. So there you go, the television ghost from 1931 to 1933.
