The Hilarious House of Frightenstein was a Canadian sketch comedy series originally produced by Hamilton's CHCH in 1971. The mock-horror variety show starred Billy Van, Fishka Rais, Joe Torbay, Guy Big and special guest star Vincent Price. It featured memorable characters such as Count Frightenstein, Igor, Grizelda the Ghastly Gourmet, and an African explorer called Bwana Clyde Batty, most of which were played by Billy Van himself. Each episode was bookended with an appearance by the venerable horror star Vincent Price as he recited intentionally silly poetry with toy skulls and shrunken heads in the background.
