Nightmare Theater was an American late night TV horror program that was broadcast on KCPX (channel 4, now KTVX) in Salt Lake City, Utah, from 1962 until 1982. The show first aired at 10:35 p.m. on September 28, 1962, with a showing of Attack of the 50 Foot Woman.[1] It was one of Utah's most popular and longest running shows. Nightmare Theater did not have a host, except for a short period in 1973. Very little documentation aside from newspaper ads is known to exist, except a few photographs of the opening credits, some audio recordings of the introduction, and memorabilia saved by Ron Ross, who would do the introductory voiceover starting in 1965.
