I remember all the dumb jokes sent in from your fans.
(1) memorable joke: What was the only bird that charged up San
Juan Hill? Teddy Roostervelt. Can't believe you read that one.
Loved the show! |

Thank you for this terrific site, and thak you to
Mr Deming and crew for a show that was funny, scary, and weird
all at the same time. Strangely, it pretty much seemed to set
the stage for the rest of my life. When I showed this site to
my kids, they said how lucky I was to grow up then. Thanks to
folks like Mr Deming, I know they're right. Now, when ever my
kids get candy when they're trick or treating, they thank you
and Happy Haunting. Perhaps you might consider doing a Wikipedia
page devoted to the show, with a link to this site. The whole
world deserves to know about Sir Graves Ghastly. Dave |

I grew up in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada and annoyed
my parents no end by refusing to go out on Saturday afternoons,
preferring the confines of the rec room with the huge wooden
TV console and Sir Graves Ghastly. What a great way to grow up.
Thanks. |

I enjoyed Sir Graves movies over the years since
I was about 7 years old. I wish it had never ended and especially
the way it did. But, because of him I can appreciate the movies
of old and the movies of new thanks to him and for the years
of scarring me when I was little. Thank you Sir Graves. |

I have great memories of Sir Graves when I was a
kid. I could not wait until Saturday afternoon to watch his show.
They do not put out shows like that anymore. I still have my
autographed picture of him given to me back in the 80s. He is
very missed. |

How wonderful to see a site, finally, for Sir Graves.
I was a frequent viewer of Sir Graves in the late 1970's and
early 1980's and can attest that Sir Graves was, quite simply,
'the Man.' A lovely site -- well maintained -- and one that brought
back many, many, fond memories. Even here in New Brunswick, Canada
(where I'm doing military training), I can still remember Sir
Graves (and that *laugh* -- unmistakeable.) 2Lt. B.G. Billing.
Royal Canadian Artillery. Canadian Forces. |

What an awesome website, and tribute to one of our
institutions here in Detroit!! I enjoyed Sir Graves immensely
as a kid, and can remember settling down to a quiet Saturday
afternoon in front of the TV and all the while my parents would
bug me to go outside and do something productive, and quit wasting
away in front of the tube, and such silliness!!! haha!! Sir Graves
will always be my favorite....What memories you brought back!!
Thanks for the trip down Memory Lane!! |

Growing up around DC, there were a number of local
TV celebrities, including cowboys, sailors, and clowns. But,
none were as memorable as when Sir Graves Ghastly hit the area
on Saturday afternoons. His shtick transcended merely melodramatic,
and was the perfect foil for the kind of B horror shows he hosted.
Thanks, Gravey. |

Brilliant site! As a kid, I'd watch his show religiously.
As much as I loved Sir Graves, I loved the Glob. It was such
a simple yet disturbing effect. Every year I host a horror fest
at Halloween. Somehow, I think, Sir Grave's is responsible for
my love of all things Happy and Haunted! Naaahhhaaaaaa. |

Hi Keith! I too was a huge Sir Graves fan! I certainly
tuned in every Saturday to catch his shows, from the opening
of the SG gate to his famous laugh. I do recall as a kid some
of the nightmares I had from watching Sir Graves Ghastly ;) But
that never stoped me from tuning in to his next show! A huge
thanks to Sir Graves for keeping us entertained, channel 2 for
bringing him into our homes and to you Keith for having this
great site!! Thanks for the memories. Don Smith |

Sir Graves was a big part of my life as a kid. I
remember sending him a little plastic bat and I had received
a black and white pic from him Saying Thanks for the bat and
Happy Haunting! I lost that pic as well as the ghoul picture.
I would love to see some of those old shows again. |

I loved Sir Graves. My mom and I would rush to get
all of the housework done so we could snuggle on the coach and
watch Sir Graves. Once I was in 10th grade at Immaculata High,
he came to viait us for the entire day - showed scary movies,
answered questions and did all of the characters. What lovely
memories I have of Sir Graves - I miss you. |

I remember my friends and I would collect money (mostly
from our parents) for MD around the neighborhood on Labor Day.
Then, my mother would drive us all down to WJBK just so we could
put the donation in the fish bowl and see the man in person.
He was a legend to us. It makes me happy to see so many others
have fond memories of Sir Graves. Happy Haunting! "Nyah-ah-ahhh!" |

I met Sir Graves in the early '80s when he made an
appearance at the Jay-Cee's haunted house. It was held at the
Grange Hall in Tecumseh, MI. I got his autograoh, but sadly,
I have it no more. Sir Graves was my favorite show growing up! |

many good memories for me. I am now 53 and still miss the show.
I hope this stays on here forever so our kids, and there kids
can see what good tv used to be like. This stuff on tv today
will never match what we had as kids. Thank God for everyone
involved in this project and all the work on the show. Please
keep up the good work and Happy Hauntingggggggggggggg. |

Sir Graves is an Icon. I remember running home from my friends
house after watching Frankenstein on Sir Graves show. All 6 of
us kids grew up watching Sir Graves. To this day when we reminisce...He
comes into the conversation. Thanks for all the great memories. |

I was delighted to finally discover this page and
that I can tell Lawson Deming, a.k.a. Sir Graves Ghastly, how
much I love and appreciate him and the work he has done, and
the sheer ghoulish fun he has given Detroit-area viewers such
as myself. I got indoctrinated to the horror classics thanks
to Sir Graves, and I was a loyal viewer up until I went away
to college and still managed to see Sir Graves every once in
a while, thanks to early cable TV programming in my dorm and
on home during school vacations. Lawson, long may you Grave!
NEEEYAAAHHHHHHAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! (Dang, the written word doesn't
do justice to Sir Graves' classic laugh!) --My Ghoulish Best

Watching Sir Graves Ghastly is probably one of my
favorate childhood exeriences (born in 1968). Many were the day
that I satyed in doors while other children played in the sun.
It was my first introduction to all those wonderfull (and wonderfully
bad) horror films. All the characters from the show were great,
but Sir Graves was, and still is, the King. I became a director
of horror movies (getting ready to do a vampire movie right now
in fact) because of Sir Graves. God bless. john |

Sir Graves is one of the highlights of my childhood.
He was TRULY ahead of his time and it was arguably one of the
most creative television shows broadcast during that period.
SIR GRAVES GHASTLY FOREVER!!! |

I watch Svengoolie now, but I sure remember those
cold winter Saturday afternoons watching Sir Graves Ghastly and
the low buget horror flicks. Our family left the Detroit area
in 1970, but I still have a fondness for Sir Graves and his laugh
all these years later. Sure is great stumbling across this site.
Happy hauntings! |

I used to watch Sir Graves every week when I was
a kid in Belleville. My sister told me a story of how she once
met him. She was a nurse at St. Joe's hospital in Ypsilanti,
MI. One day her and some other nurses where standing in the hall
when they heard "How's the Plasma Girls?!" and there was Sir
Graves standing right behind them. He was there visiting sick
kids. What a great guy! (I was so jealous that she saw him and
I didn't!). |

I was born in 1963 and I grew up with Sir Graves
in the 70's. I actually got to meet him at the TV2 station during
a Telethon. At the time I was a Michigan State Police Explorer.
I am now a police Officer for a local suburban department. Thanks
for the many "haunting" memories Sir! |

I was watching the Tony Bennett special tonight which
ended with him singing "I Left My Heart in San Francisco." The
intro to the song jogged my memory. I laughed to think of Tilly
Trollhouse singing, "The loveliness of Paris, is somehow sadly
grey...." So I googled Sir Graves and was so happy to read the
history of the show and it's wonderful characters. I have such
happy memories of sitting in front of the TV with a friend and
having snacks and watching scary movies. But Sir Graves and his
wacky characters pop into my mind and I have to laugh. The Glob!
Tilly! And the beatnik guy! So funny. Thank you Sir Graves! You're
the best! Love, Cynthia |

I haven't seen anything that has rivaled Sir Graves
Ghastly,he is a champion of wit,and campy humor.Tilly Trollhouse
still makes me laugh.I argued with my best friend for hours over
what the Glob was.(I said it was Sir Graves chin upside-down,
she insisted it was a hand...)He was practically a hero in our
house.Five kids, the eldest started with Morgus and then introduced
us all to the delight of horror movies with Sir Graves and his
menagerie of creepie guests. Sir Graves attended a Canada Parade
in my hometown in Sarnia,Canada.I was a finalist ,dressed in
a home-made attempt to be a Swamp Thing,with "green" garbage
bags and green wool. When I crossed the stage he let out that
raucous laugh and said whatever I was I was frightening. I stood
right next to him and was more thrilled than if I'd gotten to
stand by Cary Grant.I am thrilled to find this fabulous website,compiled
by such a devoted fan.Thanks for a delightful walk back in time
and great memories! I'll visit often! |

I recently told my young son about a show I used
to watch growing up in Birmingham, MI. He wanted to know all
about it so I did a google search on Sir Graves Ghastly and found
this site. This is great! After reading the show history, I just
had tons and tons of memories come pouring back. I used to religiously
draw the curtains and get settled on the couch to watch an old
horror flick( and my mom used to yell at me to get out of the
house rather than spend the afternoon infront of the TV). My
son thinks its funny that I used to submit countless pictures
to the Ghoulary and that I never once saw any of my work on camera
(sore spot for me). Anyway, I wish I could find this kind of
programming in Chicago today. Watching an old horror flick without
an intro from Sir Graves is just not the same. Thanks for putting
in the effort to build this site. I'll be back. |

I fondly remember watching Sir Graves Ghastly as
a child and I'll never forget his evil laugh, which didn't sound
that evil and made me laugh, too. He was quite a character and
I'm glad to hear he's still alive. I want to say to him...thanks
for the memories. You left a happy imprint on a lot of children
as well as adults and you left the world a better place than
you found it. Take care. |

I am now 47 years old, a doctor and living in Charlotte,NC.
Some of my favorite times as achild were sitting in front of
the TV and getting the DC feed with Sir Graves on the Telly.
I was so happy to find this site. I was discussing with a friend
how the show was so great and just decided to "Google" Sir Graves.
If some one could just tell him for me that in a very broken
home, he shed joy, fear and laughter into my life. I am eternally
grateful. With much love, Scott Sweeney |

Happy Halloween Sir Graves! I sure do miss saturdays
at 1:00. Seems the most exciting thing that happens at that time
any more is when they check the tornado siren. I'd like to also
take this chance to thank you for an autographed photo u sent
to me not too long ago. It was for my son Brandon and is now
tucked away safe along with one you signed for me in the early
80's. Your son David was kind enough to send along a very nice
little note as well. Thank You so much for the great years of
entertainment! |

We have alot of good memories of Sir Graves. Approximately
1983 we were members of the Tecumseh Jaycees and Sir Graves made
an appearance for our annual Haunted House. He was interviewed
for the local newspaper, and we had a great turnout of people
who were anxious to meet him. We still have the interview on
tape. We can remember watching Sir Graves and his corny antics
on Saturdays. He always made those horror films fun to see. |

Picked him up & took him to their home to get ready. We all met

Some of the most cherished memories of my early childhood
are sitting with my father on Saturday afternoons, watching Sir
Graves Ghastly. My father passed away a little less than two
years ago at the age of 59 from cancer, and I miss him like crazy.
Mr. Deming, if you are reading this, I just want to thank you
for helping forge those memories in my heart. Even now, watching
an old horror film brings a smile to my face. I will forever
be a Sir Graves Ghastly fan! |

Sir Graves Ghastly is a fun and very fondly remembered
part of my childhood. I remember looking through the TV Book
on Sunday morning to see what movie would be featured for the
following Saturday (and Saturdays were always diminished if he
was pre-empted for sports). I remember watching Chiller Theater
on channel 50 (with the frankenstein's Monster stirring the cauldron
on the bumpers -- remember?) always watching the clock in anticipation
to switching to Channel 2. My one real regret is that I was never
able to meet Sir Graves (I went to the State Fair once and met
Bozo -- apparently Sir Graves had been there the previous day...much
to my eternal chagrin). Anyway, thank you most sincerely Mr.
Deming -- great, great show. (Again, excellent job on the website
Keith) |

My sister met Sir Graves Ghastly at a fair in probably
1977. I was five at the time. She had a glossy signed photo of
him and told me she could see the glue holding his beard on.
I was impressed!!!! |

Not only do I remember Saturday afternoon with Sir
Graves, I also remember the Woodrow the Woodsman show. I only
just now came to realize that it was Mr. Deming who supplied
allthe voices to the puppet characters. I still look back fondly
on those years of horrow classics every Saturday afternoon. My
wife Cathy even recalls the time Sir Graves was featured in one
of our parades here in Sarnia. Thank you for so many years of
entertainment! |

Hi there !! Was just sharing my childhood memories
with my two children when I thought I wonder if I can find anything
out about Sir Graves Gastly!!!!! What a wonderful site!! I would
LOVE to see if you could get tv 4 to re-play those old shows
through October!!!!! I think that everyone and anyone who knew
of these shows would love to see them again and share them with
their kids!!!! My brothers and I would be there every Sat like
clockwork and Ithink Sir Graves was some of his inspiration for
what he does now. He owns 4 Halloween Costume/Decoration stores
and has two of Michigans Largest Hauted Houses!!! Thank Thank
Thank YOU for letting me take this trip down memeory lane!!!
It has been fright-fully delightful!!! Look forward to hearing
about the old shows coming back!!!!! |

Hey, Keith. Just thought I'd climb out of my coffin
to see what you've been up to. You're always "digging" up something
new. I left some plastic flowers at the main gate. Just a little
something that says, 'I still remember.' Cursed light...I'd better
get back to my grave. See ya. |

Wonderful site! I grew up watching Sir Graves--I
credit him with creating my lifetime love of horror films. I
recall one Halloween working to set up and perform at the haunted
house we put together at the Grosse Ile Naval Base. Sir Graves
was the surprise at the end. I had dressed as Dracula, and couldn't
have been more thrilled as a 15 year old Sir Graves fan coming
face to face with my TV hero--both of us done up as vampires.
I was on Cloud 9 for weeks after that. Thank you, sir, for making
my childhood that much richer. |

Mr. Deming, you are my hero. I say that about very
few people in entertainment, because TV and movies are the refuge
of the shallow and self-centered. But you obviously loved your
audience, and that's why we love you. You always gave Sir Graves
Ghastly Presents a touch of wit and class that's sorely lacking
in television today. I'm glad to see so many others feel the
same way. Sir Graves, I salute you. |

Dear Sir Graves, Thank you for all the childhood
memories I have of all those old horror movies. I used to watch
you with my mother, and I especially loved the old vampire movies.
I really think watching your show with all those movies inspired
my love of Halloween and scary movies (especially vampire movies
!) I always loved the way the set was decorated so spooky. You
really made watching those movies so fun !! Thanks for all the
memories, and God Bless you. Thanks again, Maureen Seiber |

I worked at WTOP Channel 9 from 1963 until 1985 in

many times. We videotaped them in Studio 13. It was one of the

It is my hope that Sir Graves will be read this by
his endearing family. The Saturday Windsor Star (Sept 2, 06)
featured a major article regarding Gordon Casteinero's new
book TV Land Detroit. This article prompted many memories from
my past (I am 43 now), to do with the local TV scene in Windsor-Detroit
(Bill Kennedy etc). The picture of Sir Graves on page B2 was
hauntingly familiar, and caused me to immediately search out
the talented creepy host who always caused me to climb under
the covers and watch my mom's TV. How quickly the stresses
of every day living cause us to forget how wonderful our childhood
was. I only wish that my children could enjoy your program today.
I will always love you and the wonderful memories you have given.

the reason i have been a horror film fan for 40 years. Thanks

passed and it's something that I will always cherish, since
I shared your show with him. Lots of Love, Jennifer |

Dear "Sir"- I want to thank you for the wonderful
childhood memories you have given me. Your show allowed my mother
and I to spend quality time together when she was working 2 to
3 jobs. I always looked forward to spending my Saturday afternoons
with my two favorite people: you and my mother. To hear your
laugh again is like hearing from a long long lost friend. I wish
you well dear "Sir" and thank you for more than you will ever
know ;) |

It is great to know someone is keeping the greats
alive for us to show our kids what we watched when we were young.
Sir graves was somthing I never missed and I just wish that the
kids today had shows like that without all the violence and adult
content and maybe this world would be a little more laid back
like back then. Your the best Sir Graves I have a autographed
pictire of you I got when I was about 9 years old still and pictures
of me on your lap at a appearance you made in Utica Mi. in 1976
I will always treasure them memories. God bless you and Happy
Hauntings. |

of years (WTOP). I remember the show and character as being unusually "funded";
seemed to have a lot more money behind it than the usual stuff
in the DC area such as WWDC 20 |

the area in the late 70s. I once saw Sir Graves in a Thanksgiving
Day Prade in Detroit I still talk to my wife and friends about
it and I,m 50 now. I,ve even collected some of the movies I saw
like Carnival of Souls. Sir Graves I,ll will always miss you

Saturday afternoons ... playing pick-up baseball
in summer, street hockey in winter, then lunch, then Sir Graves
with all the kids in the neighborhood! I remember being terrified
during the movies, but then Sir Graves would come on with his
comic relief and make everything better. He's such a lovable
vampire! Thanks for the memories :) |

At age 41 years old, I was sitting and reminscing
about the Sir Graves show to my husband. He is from Ohio so he
couldn't appreciate the great days of the show! The web site
has a great list of all the old shows. Too bad this is not media
you can find through the TV station. Thanks again for the work
contributing to the site. I enjoyed the walk down memory lane. |

On the way home with my son this evening, I let out
a Sir Graves trade mark call, my son laughed, and I started to
tell him all about saturday mornings, watching the show and the
characters and said, when we get home, I will look and see if
there is any photos of Sir Graves on the internet and came across
the web site. So even today, Sir Graves is gaining new fans.
Thanks for the memories! A fan forever Kevin Zimmerman |

Sir Graves Ghastly was one of my favorite Saturday
Afternoon...movie experiences...I was a young teen and was in
fact very scared of many of the movies....I lived a very sheltered
life...He was as cool as "Dark Shadows" shows that I used to
watch in the afternoons...every day...But "Sir Graves Ghastly" was
Saturday and everyone in school would talk about the movie the
next Monday....Thanks for the site...it brought back great memories...I
am sure I will visit often, now that I have found it...and I
will tell my friends bring to back the fun...Pam J. |

I loved your show when I was a child. I especially
loved it when you would end your show with "Happy Haunting" and
your maniacal laugh. Some of the movies I would watch would give
me nithgmares (when you are a child what didn't back then?)....but
I found myself watching your show every Saturday just after Fat
Albert. You are the best and I hope you are enjoying your retirement.
Take care, a loved fan for many years. |

sir graves ghastly as a kid? no, no is all i would hear. only
this past weekend, while visiting family and looking up sir graves
on the internet, did i find out it was from detroit! no wonder
these poor suckers missed out! every weekend my brothers, sister
and i would do exactly what we were told, turn out the lights,
draw the drapes, pull down the shades and cuddle up in your favorite
spot by the telly and boy did we with a big bowl of popcorn!
it was the best. what a wonderful site you have thank you so
much for the walk down memory lane and i will be back to enjoy

A permanent childhood memory was watching Sir Graves
every afternoon he was on. I recall how thrilled I was in the
late 1970's when Sir Graves Ghastly came to Sarnia for the Labor
Day Parade! Does anyone remember that? He was in full costume
of course and I could not forget what seemed like every kid in
a 50 mile radius showed up! It was hundreds and hundreds of children.
Sir Graves was even shocked at the mob who was there simply to
see him. Thanks for the site! Thanks for the warm ghoulish memories.

His show was always hokey and geared to the younger
ones, but totally fun to watch. Usually, his movies were good
too. Detroit misses Sir Graves Ghastly and any other horror/sci-fi
movie host. |

COLD WINTER DAYS-TILLIE SINGING "PARIS IN THE SPRING" WAS A RIOT-AND
LEFT SUCH AN IMPRESSION ON ME THAT I STILL THINK OF THE MAN AND
HIS SHOW TO THIS DAY. I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT I'M "SICK, GRAVES!

classic Horror shows, thinking of the whole upside-down singing
chin bit he used to have on the show. Boy do I miss that stuff...

My four brothers and sisters and I would get the
card table, put a blanket over it, gather our snacks and tune
in to Sir Graves every Saturday. To this day, I love a good (or
bad) horror flick, but I'm now brave enough to have come out
from under the table to watch! Tee! Hee! |

Sir Graves was my favorite scary TV show. I rarely
missed the show. He was cheesy, funny and spooky. As a kid, I
used to send my artwork into the show and loved to see it on
TV. |

None of us will ever forget Sir Graves. I, and those
whom I have talked to over the years have nothing but fond memories
of the show, and a special place in our hearts for Mr. Demming
for the joy that he gave us when we were kids. Thanx for the
website! I'll pop up a banner for it on my own to help get the
word out about it. |

I'm glad to hear Mr. Deming is still around. I used
to love to watch his show. Since we used to get shows from Detroit
and Cleveland, my school friends and I would always compare the
different movie hosts. "Sir Graves" was always at the top, as
I remember- what a fun show! I remember being irked every time
the show was pre-empted, too. So now I've got my own 60's era
hearse and flower car. Is there a connection? Who knows! |

Glad to see there's so many fans of Sir Graves. Like
many here, I grew up watching his show faithfully every Saturday
afternoon. I now have kids of my own and have passed on my love
for old black & white horror movies. Thanks Sir Graves, for all
of those wonderful afternoons of entertainment! I miss them so
much... |

Many a Saturday afternoon I spent huddled in my cozy
basement bedroom with a bowl of Jiffy Pop and my 13” black & white
with a big sheet of foil festooned to the antenna. After much
anticipation, the spooky sounds, the creaking gates, and our
beloved host, Sir Graves Ghastly, would finally illuminate the
airwaves. I treasure these moments from my childhood. Talk about
atmosphere! Lights off, I sat trance-like, drawn into this weird
and wonderful world with only an occasional interruption from
Roy O’Brien motors or to adjust my snowy picture with buttery
fingers. Thank you, Lawson J. Deming, for many happy hours and
an unforgettable introduction to the strange and hilarious world
of scary movies, bad movies, and the greatest movie host, ever. |

mentioned in the book. |

I remember watching the show as a young boy here
in Maryland. I especially loved the nursery rhymes and can actually
still quote a few of them! I even remember going to see the opening
of a film at a nearby movie theater that Sir Graves hosted. The
film was "The Dunwich Horror" and when our chaperone saw the "M" rating,
she almost made us leave! Sir Graves is still the best! |

me. I vividly remember staying up late on Fridays at 11:30 to
watch your show. I still have your postcard sent to me via WTOP
and will cherixh it forever. Again thank you for the fond and

I was introduced to "Gravy" by a couple of friends

collection of "Gravy" tapes and we would watch the reruns from
time to time. Only diapers saved me from...well, you know. We
often open our phone calls to each other with the trademark...NNNYYYYYEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!
Thanks for the laughs "Gravy." Your show will live on. |

I was about 10, and it made it into the gallery. I still remember
how bad that Bic Pen ink smelled! It was thrilling to have my

memories - especially of the blob. And thank you Keith for doing

With Halloween near I just typed in Sir Graves Ghastly,
and I found this great site. The creator should get an Emmy or
Oscar or something. In the 70's Saturday was a great day. We
would shut all the curtains and sit back and have fun watching
Sir Graves the movies and that Hand or what ever it was. I really
miss it. It is a shame that the shows may be lost forever. Channel
2 should be ashamed for not keeping copies. They lost a ture
treasure. I wish my kids could watch it. They are 8 and 9 and
it would be a great family activity for a saturday with the curtains
shut and the TV turned up eating popcorn and chillin with Sir
Graves Ghastly. He is a treasure that I miss. Please someone
bring it back. Thanks for this great site keep up the good work. |

We spent many a Saturday afternoon together as a
family watching Sir Graves Ghastly. At that time, my biggest
hope was to get a drawing featured in the gallery. My Sir Graves
Memory: while driving between Detroit and Toledo on 1-75 in our
old station wagon, we pulled along side a car. Imagine three
kids going crazy, jumping up and down and screaming with excitement
in the back seat when we saw the driver was Sir Graves in full
custome and make-up. We all waved, even my Mom...and he waved
back and gave us that devlish look. I'll never forget it. And
I still get excited when I think about it some 30 years later.
I was watching an old scary movie and thought of Sir Graves.
I decided to look him up on the internet and was so happy to
see he was still alive...and even living in my home town for
the last 15 years. I loved learning more about the man behind
the coffin too. Thanks for the great site and the walk down memory
lane. I hope he somehow gets this post and realizes how ha |

Love the blast of nostalgia!.. I only got to see
Sir Graves on the rare occurance that I was visiting a "city" cousin
on a Saturday afternoon (country mouse with rabbit ears in those
days).. But I shall never forget the treat of seeing Sir Graves!
TV has lost the "flavour" of those days.. too bad!.. Thanks for
keeping those memories alive! |

I used to love watching Sir Graves Ghastly when I
was a kid living in Toledo. We would rig the tv antenna with
foil and clothes hangers to pull it in from Detroit on channel
2. It was one of the most memorable weekly family activitities
we would enjoy with our parents especially leading up to Halloween.
Happy haunting Sir Graves! |

30 years later I still sport a scar on my nose from
rushing in to watch one of the saturday matinees when I was about
3-4 years old. I slipped on a coloring book left lying on the
floor and skidded face first into the coffee table. I wouldn't
let my mother clean me up till after Sir Ghastly had finished
his introduction and the movie started. |

drew pictures and sent them in, in fact I have a drawing from
when I was 11 that I didnt send in and I still have it! Im 38
now, and would love to see the shows come back to "TV Land"!
I met Sir Graves once with my cousin at a Halloween party he
was a judge for the custome contest, Great memories! My husband
also had a 8x10 photo of him that got lost through the years!
Id Love To Meet you Again! You will FOREVER be In Our Hearts & Memories!! |

How delighted I am to come across this spooky yet
endearing web site. I was born in Detroit in 1966 and watched
Sir Graves every week. He was my favorite part of the show. I
tuned in to watch him and rarely watched the feature film. One
day my Grandma Smith took my brother and I to see Sir Graves
in person at some sort of festival in Detroit. There he was in
his coffin and I could hear the howling wind from the end of
the long line of fans waiting to get their chance to meet him.
I was terrified! But when it was my turn to shake his hand he
was so nice and he set me at ease. He patted my head, smiled
and asked me how I was and signed an 8x10 glossy for me. I remember
it like it were yesterday! I love him. |

now that I'm turning 35 I really want it so...a tattoo is in
order I guess. I hope he wouldn't object! Oh my! |

OMG, I love this site. I grew up watching Sir Graves
and watched the show religously. Was always into monster movies
(also couldn't wait for Monster Week on the 4 O'Clock Movie).
I remember telling some family members about how much I wanted
to submit a drawing to Sir Graves, so one weekend when my Aunt
and Uncle came to visit, my Aunt Marie presented me with the
mailing address for Sir Graves. I spent the weekend creating
my best rendition of Lon Chaney Jr's "Wolfman" (headshot) and
had my mom mail the drawing in for me. Sure enough, a few weeks
later, there was my drawing hanging in Sir Graves gallery. I
still remember receiving a postcard with Sir Graves pic, thanking
me for submitting the drawing (instead of black and white it
was a moonglow sort of yellow and black photo). I wish I still
had that postcard; I had it tacked to a bulletin board forever.

many Saturdays they spent in front of the tube and you can add
me to that list. My wife and I are flying back to Michigan next
month and my Mom has a great snapshot of Sir Graves and I at
one of his many appearances. I'll scan it and send it in. I glad
to hear Mr. Demming is "still haunting" and I hope he enjoys
this tribute as much as we enjoyed watching his show. |

I loved Saturday afternoons with Sir Graves. He was
the best thing on TV. Saw the best and worst of the old horror
movies. One of my great thrills was having my crayon drawing
of the Wolf Man show up in his Ghoullery at about age 9. While
I haven't seen a Sir Graves show in 30 years, the Glob used to
crack me up. Wonder if that shtick would still seem funny today. |

My wife and I both grew up watching Sir Graves and
I wish there was a son like that for our children to watch. I
always dreamed of drawing a picture and having it on the gallery.
In fourth grade we went on a field trip to channel 2 and we were
able to walk on the set of Sir Graves. What a thrill that was.
My wife and I are the nieghborhood crazy's when it comes to Halloween
and we have a graveyard with pillars, fences creepy fog,tombstones
and staues very creepy. If the weather is good we have it up
for a few day's and all the kids run to see our house and so
do the parents. I saw your website and I am going to make a tombstone
with Sir Graves and put it into the graveyard to see who remembers
him. Thanks for the memories. |
