I grew up watching Creature Double Feature on Channel 48 in Philadelphia.

I can only remember Bob Wilkins, although he was on an Oakland/San Francisco station that we got in Reno. I guess that means he's not local, so please disregard this post.

In Cleveland, we had 3. Big Chuck and Houlihan, which became Big Chuck and Lil John. They played on Friday nights when I was a kid. They just retired last year, though they didn't play horror movies anymore because Fox didn't have the rights to enough of them. Superhost played on Saturday afternoons. He was a fat guy in a ripoff Superman outfit. The Ghoul played on Saturday nights here. He was an imitation of Ghoulardi, who was around in the sixties. And, of course, Elvira played hgere, but I think she played just about everywhere.
