"Nightfall" was a Canadian radio horror anthology series produced by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), with one episode produced in the USA. During its three season run, it would have two different hosts. The first being Henry Ramer as the horror host "Luther Kranst", who would host season 1 & 2, with season 3 hosted by Bill Reiter as the horror host "Frederick Hende". And later an Announcer. "Nightfall" was a mix of horror and supernatural. It was so scary that there were many complaints about the content. Each episode ran for about 30 minute, with some 100 hosted episodes being produced and at least 6 non hosted episodes being aired. On episode was produced in New York (USA). After the conclusion of the hosted series in 1983, "Nightfall" aired two BBC produced shows, ("Fall of the Moondust" & "The Chrysalids") both in three episode parts. These episodes had an announcer to introduce the stories. I have not been able to locate an further information on the announcer. The series was created by Bill Howell, who also produced and directed the series. When production moved from Toronto to Vancouver for the third season, Don Kowalchuk would replace Howell as director and producer. Bill Reiter was born in Verdun, Quebec, Canada in 1944. Reiter was a well known actor of stage, film and television. He has been the voice of over 4,500 radio spots and 300 Television commercials. He is also been the writer and producer of almost 1,000 radio and television commercials. Henry Ramer was born in Romania, and moved to Canada with his family in 1928. He died in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 9 August 2009. Ramer's career included stage, movies, television and radio. Some SF & Horror genre included roles in The Marvel Super Heroes (TV Series 1966), Spider-Man (TV Series 1968), Starship Invasions (Movie 1977), Screamers (Movie 1995) and>br> Mythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend (TV Series 1999).
