SHOCK THEATER

FRED OLIVER MILLS, JR. - "DR. GHOULMAN"

"Shock Theater" was a hosted horror movie show with Fred Oliver Mills, Jr. as "Dr. Ghoulman" presenting movies on KPAC-TV Channel 4, Port Arthur, Texas between 1958 to 1959. Fred Mills at that time, was a Senior Drama Major at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas. Portrait of "Dr. Ghoulman" by Dave Dunlap. Portrait of "Dr. Ghoulman" by Bradley Beard. "Dr. Ghoulman" - biography (taken from Bradley Beard's Facebook page)" I would like to thank J.D. Feigelson & Terror From Beyond the Daves for keeping the memory of this Texas horror host alive. Today I present Dr. Ghoulman, host of Shock Theatre on KPAC-TV Channel 4 in Beaumont/Port Arthur, TX. Dr. Ghoulman made his debut in 1958 and it's rumored to have lasted approximately one year. He was played by a Fred Mils, a drama student a Lamar University. Until recently, the good doctor was considered to be a lost host. No footage exists of his show and only a few photos remain. It seems that writer/producer J.D. Feigelson got his start making props for this show and it was J.D. who provided Terror From Beyond the Daves with the remaining stills of this fascinating horror host. No known clips of the show exist.
