THE DAUGHTER OF THE GHOUL SHOW

JANET JAY - "JANET DECAY"
JAMES HARMON - "GRIMM GORI"
LEXIE KAY - "PERSEPHONE, DAUGHTER OF THE GHOUL"
DANIEL KRISTANCIC - "UNKNOWN ANNOYING COMIC"



"The Daughter of the Ghoul Show" (2012) was a hosted horror movie show with Janet Jay as "Janet Decay" (April of 2013 - 2015) presenting horror movies. The show continued into possibly 2021, with various hosts, including Lexie Kay as "Persephone, the Daughter of the Ghoul" and Daniel Kristancic as "Unknown Annoying Comic".

"The Daughter of the Ghoul Show" was a throwback to the late-night television programs most people grew up watching. The show screened old movies and independent films. There were skits, interviews, and sometimes location to horror-themed conventions.

After leaving the show, Janet, along with James Harmon (Grimm Gorri) would create the long running "The Mummy and The Monkey" show.

How yummy can a mummy be? Today I present the delicious Janet Decay, hostess of The Daughter of the Ghoul Show on Time Warner Cable channel 196 in Cleveland, Ohio, WCTV in Brunswick, Ohio, and BAT in Hudson, Ohio; she also hosts Janet Decay's Rotten Reels on the internet. In her days as a silent screen actress, Ms. Decay inherited an ancient Egyptian curse while filming a movie about the life of Cleopatra. The crew of DMK Productions stumbled upon her sarcophagus 100 years later and aroused her from her slumber. She gave the boys quite a fright but eventually they came to their senses and realized that they had just dug up their new horror hostess. Let's wrap things up a little word of warning, if Auntie Decay volunteers to babysit, remember to hide the beer and duct tape. Savor the flavor of Ms. Decay until TOMB-orrow.

She's the mummy of her monkey's eye. Tonight I present Janet Decay, co-host of The Mummy and The Monkey Show. In her days as a silent screen actress, Ms. Decay inherited an ancient Egyptian curse while filming a movie about the life of Cleopatra. A hundred years later, a production crew stumbled upon her and she began her horror hosting career as The Daughter of the Ghoul Show in Cleveland, OH, however, it wasn't until Janet's Rotten Reels collided headlong with Grimm Gorri's Eerie Cinematery and gave the world a match made in horror hosting heaven. Their show is filled with outrageous skits and unexpected surprises, in fact, you never know what they might throw at you... and considering what Grimm likes to throw, you might want to duck. Be sure to check out The Mummy and The Monkey, they're living dead proof that Cleveland ROCKS! Savor the flavor of this yummy mummy until we meet again TOMB-morrow.

He's one lucky monkey... and he knows it. Tonight I present Grimm Gorri, co-host with Janet Decay on the Mummy and the Monkey. Grimm is the missing link in the Cleveland horror hosting history. According to Grimm, he was supposed to be Cleveland's first horror host in 1958 but his show never happened. Grimm disappeared for several decades, many still speculate to his whereabouts for all those years. Grimm recounts that he remained in the shadows of Cleveland for over 50 years waiting until the time was right to resurface. It seems that when he saw the lovely Janet Decay, he knew the time was now. Originally, Grimm Gorri's Eerie Cinematery was to be mashed-up with Janet Decay's Rotten Reels as a dual internet show but it seems the dynamic duo took the idea further and combined their hosting talents into one show. Don't miss out on their hilarious skits, check out this terrifying team today!



In 2023, Janet Jay as "Janet Decay" and James Harmon as "Grimm Gorri", were inducted into the "The Official Horror Host Hall of Fame".
