The host Svengoolie talks about various horror movies while showing the movies, one per episode, and gives an introduction to them and performs an act during the commercial breaks. One of the constant tropes is that he will ask a question, then cut back to the movie in a way that looks like the character is answering that question. He also does a deep dive on the early careers of the major actors, and also what has happened to them since then.

After 43 years in his warm and cozy dungeon, master horror host Svengoolie leaves on an epic journey filled with celebrity encounters, long lost archives, a search for lost memorabilia and a celebration that could only take place in Berwyn, Ill.
