Tiny Toon Adventures (1990) parodied this series in the episode, "Toons From The Crypt", with Buster Bunny, voiced by Charlie Adler, portraying a Cryptkeeper-type character telling scary stories. Later in the series, John Kassir, who's the voice of the Cryptkeeper, would go on to voice Buster Bunny after Adler left the show. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

Based on the gruesome EC comics of the same name, Tales From the Crypt showcased a wide ranged of talent in both in front and behind the screen. And despite the name, not every episode was pure horror... some could be laugh-out-loud humorous, and some were even dramatic that could put you to the verge of shedding tears. The makeup on the series was excellent, and made the scenes that were gruesome very hard to watch. And of course, let's not forget the the dead one himself, the Cryptkeeper. John Kassir was absolutely perfect as the voice of the ghoulish host. For people who missed the series, I truly think you should purchase the DVD sets and check it out. Be warned though, there are some scenes that you may have a tough time stomaching.
