Tales from the Cryptkeeper

The series details the Cryptkeeper telling more kid-friendly horror stories to the viewers, each with a teachable lesson. The second season has the Cryptkeeper at constant odds with rivals, and fellow EC Comics horror hosts, the Vault-Keeper and the Old Witch, who continually try to steal the show from him as they did not have one of their own, only to have their plans backfire. The Cryptkeeper can be found in different locales than his mansion, as he tries to elude his foes. The third and final season, under the title New Tales from the Cryptkeeper, aired in 1999 on Teletoon in Canada and on CBS in the United States. This season sees the Cryptkeeper taking a more active role, usually by setting up situations to teach frightening lessons to kids with severe character flaws. ==Cast==
