Yeah, in Los Angeles we had one too, well, it was called "Creature Features," I think, plural...and it started with an image of a miniature dungeon with figures chained to the walls screaming. And the figures were actually little rubber wiggly toys you could buy at the store...someone had attached little wires or sticks to them so they could be made to shake in the shot...and over all this was a generic "haunted house" sound effects track. This would have been around the early 70's...
And I remember having one of the rubber toys seen in the opening sequence, and I seem to remember my folks buying the toy at the local Lucky supermarket back when the monster craze was still pretty big...it was one of those little 75-cent rubber wigglies.
Back then they had a lot of little monster goodies in those machines for a quarter, you could get monster pins, and rubber bouncing balls with monster faces in them, and so on.
