Dr. Shock

Dr. Shock was magician Joseph Zawislak who created the persona based on Roland, (with John Zacherle’s permission), and hit the Philadelphia airwaves on WPHL-TV (Channel 17) in 1969. His first Saturday afternoon horror show lasted only 13 weeks, but protests brought him back and a cult had begun. He was on three different shows during his reign: Scream-In, Mad Theater and Horror Theater. American Artists Entertainment represented Dr.Shock in the seventies and recorded him on “East Coast Records”.   His sign-off each week was “Let there be fright!”.   Joe Zawislak died of heart failure at the age of 42.   Many cities in America has these local tv show monster hosts.   In Cleveland we had “The Ghoul.”
