PopHorror Let's Get Scared
There are not many things I love in life. I am a hyper 40-year-old with the mentality of a six-year-old. I’ll never change, I have been diagnosed with Aspergers and I am proud of how far I am making it in life. Horror and cartoons are two things that mean something to me. I’ve watched a lot of cartoons come and go over the years, and my favorites were always the spooky and funny stuff.
Here are my Top10 horror-based cartoons that should have been more popular! Let’s get to it…
Gravedale High
Premiering in 1990 Gravedale High was created by Hannah Barbera for NBC. The premise was perfect. The show featured Max Schneider voiced by Rick Moranis, who has to keep up as a human in a school full of ghosts, ghouls, and more.
Mummies Alive!
In 1997, there was a mummy trend. What followed in the footsteps was Mummies Alive! The show lasted for one season. All the mummies had separate magic, making it like Captain America. I have to admit, I wasn’t too interested in this show. I was a little older and riding my bike all over town.
Bump in the Night
Bump in the Night was undoubtedly safe for kids. The show centered around the three stars and was shot in stop motion. Bump In The Night lasted from 1994-1995. The episodes were cut into two stories and a music video at the end.
Drak Pack
Premiering in 1980, this cartoon saw movie monsters in a different view. Being controlled by teenagers, they perform the Drak Pack whack and afterward, they become monsters, The show lasted from September to December 1980. All in All it brought the long-past Universal monsters back and more.
Creepy Crawlers
Creepy Crawlers was a cartoon created in order to sell a toy. All in all, the show was originally owned by Saban, another show that would disapear in time. In 2001 Disney obtained the rights and all in all, we will never see this show again outside of YouTube. The show was created in 1994 and ended the same year. It fell into the same traps as the others. In this series, A young man named Chris Carter, a self-proclaimed “normal kid” has to start fighting monsters with the help of other monsters.
Groovie Goolies
Groovie Goolies were like a cartoon version of a variety show. Made for CBS the cartoon ran from 1970-1972. It was an extremely goofy Mad Monster Party style of show. Featuring an array of monsters having a good time and rocking out. The show was brilliant and full of fun.
Monster Force
The Monster Force is on the prowl all the time, waiting for that moment. The enemy was always based on a classic horror character. The show premiered in April of 1994 and lasted 13 episodes. At any rate, I am waiting for a resurgence that hasn’t happened. All things considered, this show was undeniably a lost gem.
Count Duckula
British studio Cosgrove Hall Productions created Count Duckula as a spin-off from Danger Mouse. In 1984, Nickelodeon acquired the US broadcast rights to Danger Mouse. Before long, the Nickelodeon management came to Cosgrove Hall, undoubtedly to co-produce another series. This was that series as a result of a Nickelodeon manager seeing a poster on the wall.
Tales From The Cryptkeeper
We all remember the iconic HBO series. However do you remember this equally silly gem? Above all, this was much more acceptable to my parents.
Mighty Max
At one time, girls had Polly Pockets, and Mighty Max was the answer to them. The show was fantastic in my opinion. The series ran from 1993 and 1994 and had 40 episodes over 2 seasons.
