A statue of the Crypt Keeper, the iconic host of HBO’s 'Tales from the Crypt,' was stolen from the Mystic Museum in Burbank on Sunday, as captured by security footage. The museum's owner, Erick Wessel, expressed concern that the statue could be sold off to a collector, hidden from the public. They are offering a $500 reward for information leading to its recovery and have called upon the horror community for assistance. The Burbank Police Department is investigating the theft, which coincides with the upcoming Midsummer Scream convention attracting thousands of horror fans. John Kassir, who voiced the Crypt Keeper, humorously threatened the thief on social media, underscoring the community's support for the museum. The statue represents a significant piece of horror memorabilia, having been saved from destruction just a few years prior.
