Wolfman Jack with Virginia (Left) and Marion Knott.
The purpose of this blog is to share my collection of Knott's memorabila, which mainly consists of printed material. I will occasionally add some photographs, original art, souvenirs and others items that I have collected over the years. Such as the wood type used to make my header, which was used in the Ghost Town Print Shop on the old Washington Press, to print the souvenir newspaper headlines.

Halloween Haunt 1976 part 2
Here's more of the photos from the 1976 Halloween Haunt promotional event. This was the second year that Wolfman Jack was the host of Halloween Haunt. "Wolfman's Haunted Hearse" shown in these photos was being raffled off this year. Back then they thought they needed an extra incentive for people come. The hearse and Wolfman's coffin was detailed by "Big Daddy" Ed Roth, of Rat Fink fame, from Knott's Graphics Department.

Wolfman Jack, it's hard to believe how hugely popular he was for a while (the "American Graffiti" effect?). Kids shows, variety shows (Sonny & Cher)... he was everywhere.
ReplyDeleteThese are so great Alan!
ReplyDeleteI saw Wolf man Jack and Elvira in the Good time theatre in n October of 1976 and Elvis Presley was a guest star in the audience. Which now I find out is my sixth cousin 💗💗💗💗🍪🍪🍪🍪
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing❤️🤗🇨🇦
DeleteCan Anonymous – or anyone else – please provide details of the real Elvis (not a talented imitator) being in the audience at OR performing at the Halloween Haunt.
ReplyDeleteMy wife claims this occurred. Later, a friend told the same story of seeing The King perform. Trying to confirm such a memorable happening.
Many thanks for any info you can remember and share. Would mean a lot to my wife!
