Hello and welcome to KHTH Radio. My name is Carlton and I’m in charge of the music, guests here at the hotel enjoy throughout the lobby and the many of the common areas of the property.
You know, since the events of Halloween 1939, life here at the Hollywood Tower just has not been the same. And as gloomy as it would be to dwell on such events, there are other things that we spirits do look forward to, such as our annual Christmas party.
This year Master Gracey graciously accepted our invitation and even brought along another 998 friends of his. Everyone had a howling good time and in fact, the staff informs me that a few of them even chose to stay on with us for a little while longer. To those spirits I say, we know where you are and we will soon find you. Master Gracey is sending a couch to collect you in short order.
For this year’s holiday gathering I’ve dusted of a few of my favorite recordings. The music the kids listen to these days is just simply ghastly. But this, this is what real music is all about and I do hope you’ll agree. Happy Holidays.

Dear Rhoda,
So glad you remember me. As you can see, or rather hear, I've moved on from my old Brooklyn haunts. Even back in those days I felt rather disembodied.
Take care dahling. Perhaps one day soon you'll drop in.
Kindest Regards,
Carlton
Very fun - I have to say these songs got me in to a Disney and Christmas mood :)!
