Haunted House | |
Readalong / int_f9439c84 | comment |
Haunted House: One of the characters introduced during the show's run. It was a house that could talk, and whose door acted as the mouth, opening and closing to whatever it said. | |

Fake Interactivity | |
Readalong / int_f96efb51 | comment |
Fake Interactivity: Characters on the show would often have conversations with the audience, even pausing and talking back to them. Of course, since the show's from The '70s, it was as interactive as one would expect. | |
