Boris Karloff's "Thriller" Thriller (a.k.a. Boris Karloff's
Thriller) was an hour-long TV Horror anthology series that
originally aired on NBC from 1960 to 1962. Horror fans who grew up
in the 1960s and 1970s were nearly enraptured with the content and
structure of this show. Indeed, in his non-fiction book on horror,
Danse Macabre, Stephen King calls Thriller "the best horror series
ever put on TV" (224; 1983 ed). At the beginning of each hour,
Hollywood's master of the macabre himself, Boris Karloff, would set
the tone and prime the viewers for frightful and chilling
dramatizations based on the works of some of the era's greatest
writers in the genre—writers like Robert E. Howard, Cornell
Woolrich, Richard Matheson, and Robert Bloch. Each episode was shot
in eerie black and white and offered at least one story, with a few
episodes dividing the hour between two or three shorter
plays.

"The best horror
tv series that was never aired
on TV!"
Horror legend Boris Karloff hosted and performed in this
never-aired anthology series. Each program opened with the camera
entering through a huge archway, pulling in on Karloff who's seated
and reading by an oversized, blazing fireplace. Karloff stands
before the flames and says, "Good evening. Tonight, I'm going to
tell you another strange and unusual story of the unexplainable
which lies behind The Veil".
The series was created and produced by Frank P. Bibas, who
had worked in television and film since 1950. He had an interest in
the supernatural and decided that the supposed "true" stories of
the paranormal he'd come across would make for a great series.
Sadly enough the studio that filmed the series went into
bankruptcy and series was abruptly ended and was never even pitched
to a network.
Karloff performed in all but one episode. That episode, Jack
the Ripper, featured Boris in the usual open and close, but was not
shot as a character in this episode.
