#ANIME SONIC X SUB INDO SNOWDEN SERIES#
The series lasted two seasons on ABC with a total of 26 episodes. In addition to the Cryptkeeper, EC Comics' mascots The Vaultkeeper and The Old Witch also made frequent appearances, often fighting with the Cryptkeeper for control of the show's hosting duties. Kassir later said 'Nelvana created a kinder, gentler personality for the children's Crypt Keeper, and it feels a little uncharacteristic at times,'. The Cryptkeeper puppet was considered as the host for the series but it was ultimately decided that it might frighten youngsters, so instead an animated version was created (which bore more of a resemblance to the puppet than the version of The Cryptkeeper that originated in 1950s EC Comics) and John Kassir reprised his role. Nelvana employed a child psychologist to review the scripts to ensure the episodes would be suitable for young viewers. Produced by Nelvana for ABC in the United States and YTV in Canada, the violence of the prime-time series was substantially toned down and the gore was omitted.

In 1993, a Saturday morning cartoon called Tales from the Cryptkeeper was spun off from the HBO series. Comic book cover art was created by Mike Vosburg and Shawn McManus. Each episode was self contained, and was bookended by an outro sequence again involving the Crypt Keeper. his frequent greeting to viewers: 'Hello, Boils and Ghouls' or 'Hello, Kiddies'). The wisecracking Crypt Keeper (performed by puppeteers like Van Snowden, Mike Elizalde, Frank Charles Lutkiss, Patty Maloney, Anton Rupprecht, Shaun Smith, David Stinnent, Mike Trcic, and Brock Winkless, and voiced by John Kassir) would then introduce the episode with intentionally hackneyed puns (e.g. The Crypt Keeper is an animated corpse, as opposed to the original comics in which he was a living human being. The show's host, the Crypt Keeper, then pops out from his coffin, cackling wildly finally, green slime pours down over the screen as the main title appears. Once inside, the camera pans down from the foyer to the hallways and stairways, and finally descends into the basement. Each episode begins with a tracking shot leading to the front door of the Crypt Keeper's decrepit mansion.
