The roots of The Monster Club.Com go back to 1995. Originally a two line BBS based in Sacramento California called Nightmarez Cafe, Cheryl geared the BBS towards her own love of horror films and tv shows, offering games, downloads, forum and more. About this time, Jace Witman joined the team and became co-sysop to the BBS as well as creating mascot "Tombcreeper". Around this time, Cheryl also teamed up with Reggie Bannister of Phantasm phame and his wife Gigi, to produce Nightmarez Cafe cable TV show. In 1997 Cheryl, Jace and the other monster kids on the BBS got together and hosted a horror convention, Carnival of Horrors. The two day event featured guests such as Kane Hodder, Dick Warlock, Reggie Bannister and Gunnar Hansen, film screenings, haunted house and more. In 1998 the first Monster News Zine was published. With even more projects cooking, the time was right for a "home" on the web, The Monster Club.Com was then created as a house for Monster News and other activities. In 2000, Cheryl acted as an executive producer of zombie comedy feature film, "Stop It, You're Killing Me". More publications on the topic of horror films were yet to follow including books by Cheryl, Monster Movie Memories: From Movie Palace To Drive In and The Monster Club.Com Guide To Horror, as well as Monster News Online, an Ezine offering news on classic horror and the revision of classic horror. The first Monster Club DVD, "The Monster Club.Com Presents: Festival of Fright", a treasury of classic of horror movie trailers, was released by Synergy Entertainment in October 2006. A follow up trailer collection "The Monster Club.Com Presents: Festival of Fright 2" was released October 2007. "The Monster Club.Com Presents: Festival of Fright 3" was released October 2008. DVDs are currently available in stores and online. Cheryl also acted as co-producer of Mr. Lobo's Midnight Spookshow, which combined the showing of "House On Haunted Hill" with live theater gimmicks and a release party for Monster Movie Memories: From Movie Palace To Drive In. Some people who have contributed greatly in various areas include Jace Witman (responsible for art and so much more!), Terry Wagner, Dave Baker, Rick Locuson, Ernest Harris, Dan Johnson, Mr. Lobo, Doktor Goulfinger, John Cozzoli, Micheal Murry, Joeann Roberts and Ron Roberts. Cheryl's current passion is for Old Time Horror Radio. She has searched the globe to bring you 500 of the best stories available. Enjoy! Contact The Monster Club.Com at tombcreeper@yahoo.com. |
