The Goolies were a group of hip monsters residing at Horrible Hall (a haunted boarding house for monsters) on Horrible Drive. Many of the Goolies were (in look and sound) pop-culture echoes of the classic horror-film monsters created in the 1930s and 1940s, mostly by Universal Pictures. The group sang a pop song each episode.

Filmation had had enormous succes the previous years with cartoons based on "The Archies" and "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" comics, which were shown in one hour blocks. In 1970, Sabrina was coupled with a new concept, The Groovie Goolies, featuring the classic Universal monsters Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, the Wolfman and the Mummy living together at 'Horrible Hall', a castle that also served as an Inn for monsters.

abstract
  • Groovie Goolies was a 1970 television series produced by Filmation that featured many concepts and even some animation that would be reused in the 1986 Ghostbusters cartoon series. Filmation had had enormous succes the previous years with cartoons based on "The Archies" and "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" comics, which were shown in one hour blocks. In 1970, Sabrina was coupled with a new concept, The Groovie Goolies, featuring the classic Universal monsters Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, the Wolfman and the Mummy living together at 'Horrible Hall', a castle that also served as an Inn for monsters. Like the previous two shows, there were musical numbers in every episode, and while The Archies had featured quickfire gag segments in the style of "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In", the Groovie Goolies show was made up almost completely of gags, puns and short sketches rather than a coherent story.
