Nightmare Theatre Opening (early to mid '60's)
As remembered by Joe Busam

Begin with the exterior of an old deserted house. . .dissolve to the interior and the mantle with a dismembered head laying on the mantle. . .dissolve to a shot of another dismembered head, this one being held by the hair in closeup. . .dissolve to a wide shot of a man hanging upside down, swaying back and forth. Jump cut to a close up of his face, (this character appeared to be a piece of artwork; the others were all dummy heads) his eyes open wide and looking side to side as a creepy voice echoed: "Night....mare...." and the title would dissolve over the shot.
