Overview

Crime

Thriller is an American anthology television series that aired during the 1960–61 and 1961–62 seasons on NBC. The show featured host Boris Karloff introducing a mix of self-contained, macabre weird-horror and morbid, hitchockian crime stories, in some of which he also starred.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Robert Bloch (Psycho) wrote multiple episodes, and some stories were so intense NBC almost killed the show mid-season.

Cultural

This was Karloff's final major TV work — he essentially bequeathed his horror legacy directly to living rooms, one velvet-voiced intro at a time.
