The Ghoul on TV20

This is one of the funniest segments of the Ghoul's show that I've ever seen. The best part is that The Ghoul just ad libs through the piece, and shows why so many people are still big fans even though most of them haven't seen him on tv in years. Another neat thing is that Dave Ivey shows up at the beginning of the segment. Also, I was surprised to see that the P.O. Box to send in your home movies is in Clawson, Michigan. Either they shot the show in Clawson (it kind of looks like they're in someone's basement), or maybe The Ghoul was living there...

I know the Ghoul personally, he is my manager at work. He's a fun guy with the wig off.

This was recorded at VideoLab in Royal Oak, Michigan!

[hackeditor]

Do you know where VideoLab was located in Royal Oak? Also, was The Ghoul living in Clawson at the time, since the address he gives at the end is in Clawson.

we don't care if he's from cleveland he's also accepted in detroit. he's welcome to greatness in motown as well. we can share the ghoul, he's cool.

Forget that!! The Ghoul is from Detroit. He moved to Cleveland after many years of his show. TV 20 is a Detroit station..

I absolutely never missed a show of the Ghoul. I have no knowledge of where he was broadcasting from or lived. However if anyone remembers he mentioned Parma Ohio a LOT. He broadcast for sure from channel 20 in Detroit and was quite knowledgeable about the city. Thank you for posting this. It was a great memory that I thought was gone forever. Do any of you "old timers" remember Morgus back in the 60's ?

@oldjizzy LOL...no problem...I always made sure to watch him as I always liked the segments when he blew things up....but what normal male doesn't like m80s, firecrackers and things that go "BOOM"!?...LOL?

[oldjizzy]

@CheckM8King2 - My bad. I just caught him when he was in the D. Couldn't remember anything other than that. He was so funny. :-)

I remember as a young boy, I would stress my eyes open to keep from falling asleep just so i could watch his show. Im 45 years old right now and I still wish i could meet the Ghoul just once. Also id like to bring my way older sister so it would remind her as well. Cuz id bug the shit out of her talking about the Ghoul when i was little...hi ya hi ya!

[OZOBIEUSA1]

@frkbassist Really? How cool! I swear I was the biggest Ghoul fan ever. Where do you work?

[CheckM8King2]

@oldjizzy I remember him well but he got his start in Cleveland.

Anybody 50 or over knows the Ghoul started in Detroit. Way back when I was like 11 or 12. That was 1974. Early 70's. It was a Detroit made show and aired on WKBD TV50 on the UHF channels. I'm sure channel 56 also picked up the show, and even later WB 20 I believe. but the Ghoul was early 70's when UHF started about that time. TV-50 was where I always saw it. It doesn't mean it was taped in Detroit, but he used to always mention detroit stuff. So . . . . . .

this is TERRIFIC stuff never to be equaled by weak imposters of current crap.
