Sid Krofft, who along with brother Marty Krofft created and co-produced a slew of trippy, beloved kids’ TV classic of the 1970s such as H.R. Pufnstuf, Land of the Lost and others, died Friday, April 10, of natural causes at the home of his friend and business partner Kelly Killian. He was 96.
His publicist, Adam Fenton, said Krofft died peacefully in his sleep.
