"Hello kids, I'm television's Marty Engels ... FROM HELL!
"Actually, I'm Mister L.Dedd, host of Charlton's GHOSTLY TALES and owner of what is possibly the most confusing horror-host pun-based name possible. L.Dedd, L.Dedd, as in ... you know, 'El Dead,' which is Spanish for 'The Dead," I think. Maybe I'm an L.Ron Hubbard joke. I dunno, anyway, I changed it to 'I.M.Dedd' eventually because I guess if you want anything done right around here you have to do it yourself.
"If I stand out for anything in particular as a horror host, it's probably for looking like some sort of hellbent Danny Thomas. Just picture my lying under a glass-top coffee table, it'll complete the picture, I guarantee it.
"In the meantime, here's a forgotten classic from THIS MAGAZINE IS HAUNTED outlining the byzantine supernatural punishments of an outmoded primitive superstition. Me, I value reason and rationalism over absurd theocratic dogma. This is why I subscribe to Scientology."
