Horror Host 2015 Retrospective: Arach and Nid

Real name: Wayne Thomas
Years active: 1973 (KHJ-TV, Los Angeles, CA)

Kicking off the 2015 season, we'll be focusing on the Golden State's hosts big and small, and fewer are smaller than Arach and his friend Nid.

Wayne Thomas, formerly the announcer for Fright Night, was given a shot at being in front of the camera. Dressed as a giant spider, he joked along with his off camera friend Nid, a fly. Sadly he joked too much, as two episodes in he made some off the cuff remarks about the station owners, who promptly cancelled the program the next day.

No episodes or stills survived, so this spider man will sadly roam the hallways of the lost hosts section of our site.
