Consider that night stalked! Simon Oakland, who played Tony Vincenzo, Kolchak’s long-suffering editor, was also a concert violinist, and composer Jerry Fielding, while blacklisted, filled his time, pleasantly enough, jamming with a young Johnny Williams. Even in the realm of the unexplained and the supernatural, music makes the world go ‘round.

Here’s Roy Bjellquist and my leisurely ramble through sinister after-dark Chicago, a nostalgic exploration of “Kolchak: The Night Stalker” (1974-75).

Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner is live-streamed on Facebook every Friday and Sunday at 7 pm EDT. Tomorrow night, we’ll revisit the classic “Star Trek” Halloween episode “Catspaw.” Energize!
