"Tales from the Tomb" was a hosted horror movie show with Roy Bishop as "Leroy" hosted movies on Friday nights at 11:00pm or 11:30pm on WSBA, UHF Channel 43 York, Pennsylvania from the late 1950's to early 1960's. From E-gor's Chamber of TV Horror Hosts web page: "The old Universal classics were shown, Frankenstein, Dracula, Wolf Man, Invisible Man, etc. The show was called Tales from the Tomb, and was hosted by a guy named "Leroy." He was not scary at all. He was a short, plump-looking guy who wore thick dark glasses and baggy pants with suspenders. I believe he also wore a derby. There was a co-host named "Vampira" who wore a black slinky gown. On the set was a coffin and during the show a voice would speak from the box telling Leroy it was time to feed the monster. Leroy would empty (gurgle, gurgle) a quart of Piels beer (the sponsor was possibly a local distributor?) into the coffin. I believe "Vampira" was played by the weather girl for the station".—The Professor
