Late Night

Plots: A live television broadcast in 1977 goes horribly wrong, unleashing evil into the nation’s living rooms. October 31, 1977. Johnny Carson rival Jack Delroy hosts a syndicated talk show ‘Night Owls’ that has long been a trusted companion to insomniacs around the country. A year after the tragic death of Jack’s wife, ratings have plummeted. Desperate to turn his fortunes around, Jack plans a Halloween special like no other, unaware he is about to unleash evil into the living rooms of America. With his ratings plummeting, late-night talk show host Jack Delroy desperately needs a boost. After all, he’s been chasing Johnny Carson’s The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962) for too long. So, to put his Night Owls back on the map, Jack comes up with an occult-themed 1977 Halloween special featuring a medium, a professional sceptic, a parapsychologist, and a satanic cult survivor. But some forces are beyond human comprehension. And as hair-raising incidents keep the audience on edge and viewers guessing, America is in for a nasty surprise for sweeps week–the night Jack televised evil.
