Started Kolchak: The Night Stalker this week! I’d never heard of this show so it’s been a treat to watch 👻
Kolchak: The Night Stalker is an American television series that aired on ABC during the 1974–1975 season. The series followed wire service reporter Carl Kolchak (Darren McGavin) who investigates mysterious crimes with unlikely causes, particularly those involving the supernatural or science fiction, including fantastic creatures. The series was preceded by the two television movies, The Night Stalker (1972) and The Night Strangler (1973). Although the series lasted only a single season, it developed cult status in syndication.
Chris Carter cited Kolchak as a “tremendous influence” in creating his franchise The X-Files.
