Sammy Terry
Sammy Terry is a horror host from Indianapolis, Indiana. He was played by Robert "Bob" Carter from 1962 to 2010, and then by Carter's son Mark Carter from 2010 to the present.
Carter's show, Nightmare Theater, featured two films per episode. During the commercial breaks, Carter would engage in campy banter with the audience and his floating rubber spider, "George." He would also provide commentary on the films being shown, which included classic films as well as many less-than-stellar productions from the horror film era of the 1930s through the early 1960s.
Carter was a beloved figure in Indianapolis, and his show remains popular to this day.
