I grew up in Dinuba. The show was definitely Nightmare and it was on Saturday nights. I think on channel 47. My older brother and I would watch it most every week. I agree he was usually more scary than the movie. I think the show started with Sebastian saying "Welcome to Nightmare" in a very eerie way. Great memmories!

Just to add to my comment above, I remember the name of that horror show to be Nightmare. Wish I could find a photo of Sabastian. His face resembled a skull. Very eerie.

Sabastian gave me many nightmares as a kid in the 50's. I remember he showed the 1931 Frankenstein and it scared the heck out of me. I was sure the monster was lurking just outside my window, waiting for me to fall asleep so he could get me. Lol. Great memories.

Was that the Sci-Fi program on Friday nights at 6 P.M.? Channel 47 ticked me off royally one time when it didn't show the end of one movie way back when. Long live American International Pictures!

I now hear that the name of the KJEO-TV series he hosted in the 1950s was "Shock Theater."

Since posting this topic last week, I've learned from my friend, Marv Harrison, that Sebastian was an electrician at KJEO, Channel 47, in the 1950s. Somehow, he went from being an electrician to hosting the horror movie series on the station. Marv claims his first name was Jay, but he doesn't remember Jay's last name.

I remember a late-night, local TV horror movie series from the 1950s. It was hosted by a man dressed as a monstrous-looking guy. He called himself "Sebastian." It was either on Channel 12, 24, or 47. Does anyone remember this series? "Sebastian" hosted these black and white horror relics and, as a child, he looked so scary, I found him more horrifying than the movies screened on the series.
