Nightmare Cafe
Created by Wes Craven, Nightmare Cafe broadly concerns the inhabitants of the titular otherworldly café: mysterious proprietor Blackie (Robert Englund), sarcastic but good-hearted cook Frank (Jack Coleman), and insecure yet gutsy waitress Fay (Lindsay Frost). During the show's limited run, the origins of the café were never revealed, but it has the power to materialize in any location (much like the TARDIS in Doctor Who), and seems to be sentient on some level (in one episode, it refuses to allow Frank to enter until he apologizes to it). The café is usually situated by a waterfront; when it changes its location, its inhabitants realize that they are about to be given a mission.
