Hi There:

Hope your Thanksgiving was good. Yes, it is streaming again.

Stay well and warm!

Just checked last night, 3/10/25, and the above channel is still listed under; Store, Apps, Classic TV. Downloaded it and tried to run it and it did the same thing as last year; error, slow internet or check with owner. Doesn't work. Never worked. Please remove this channel from the Roku Store.

I had asked this questions before and didn't get an answer, but does anyone from Roku check these apps out to see if they even work?

Thank you.

Yes, I have been aware of this as well. Terror Vision still doesn't work, yet it is still listed in the ROKU APP STORE. It doesn't look like ROKU stays UP TO DATE with these kinds of things. Also, (American Horrors CLASSIC) also remains listed in the Roku app store as well, yet hasn't worked in a long while. ROKU shouldn't have DEAD APPS in STORE. They should be REMOVED.

I totally agree with you. I can not understand how a lot of these channels make it to the store and/or stay in the store, as I've had a few over the years that never worked from day one. Most are impossible to track down as well.

And, funny you should mention American Horrors Classic Channel. I reached out to the owner, Hart Fisher this past weekend, inquiring into the status of this channel as he had posted on his American Horror's Classic Channel Facebook page, on December 19th, 2024, "Guess what channel is coming back at you". Well, it's been almost 3 months now and nothing, so I emailed him. Sad to say - but not unexpected - no replies as of today. This channel has been offline for well over a year and a half now. While he had responded to a couple of my inquires back at the early part of the outage, I've heard nothing from him in almost a year. Maybe someone else can try and see if they get an answer.

Thank you. It would be nice if you guys at Roku could go through all the channels and delete those who are not working/never worked, such as Truly Classic Horror Channel, Terror Vision, and others. I'd also like for Roku to reach out to those channel owners to see if YOU can contact them as I have to assume, they approach you to ask to have their channels put on your companies product. (Roku), instead of having us, the viewers/users try and figure out how to contact them. MOST are not even visible on Google search while others, such as American Horror's Classic Channel, ignore any attempts for us fans to contact them. Facebook is fine, IF you're a member and/or the Facebook page is not private but alot haven't updated their pages in month's if not years.

Just my 2 cents.

Also, how about coming back with a page of "new" channels/apps like you use to have a few years back. You had a page where it was updated every month or so just with new channels to watch, rather than trying to page through page after page or seeing nothing has been updated on - for example - Classic TV page.

Thank you again.

Hello everyone,

Finally heard back from Hart Fisher on his channel, American Horrors Classic Channel. Here's what he had to say:

Hey, we're rolling out American Horrors Classic as our wednsday night theme until we can get the tech sorted out on the channel itself. I've been working with several different guys, but we've been having a real problem with getting the web player to function right, and getting AHC rolling right.

Thanks for sticking with us, hope you're digging all the new stuff I've been adding to the main American Horrors channel.

Now heard it from the MAN himself. Lets hope he gets his channel issues corrected.
