Hosted by Robert Englund, the Horror Hall of Fame II was a syndicated television special from 1991 that celebrated all things horror, with the trappings of a fancy awards show.

Enjoy the show, and if you want to see the whole dang special, we've put it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LBjPyz8jGfg?si=EJkBu7T1a3ZGdJnC
