It is no secret that my favorite monster is the one built by Dr. Frankenstein. A few days ago, this icon turned 200 years old! Mary Shelly dreamed him into life and his story has seen many forms and incarnations, but none as good or profound or heart-wrenching as the original black and white print in the book. To celebrate his bicentennial birthday, Frankenstein gets re-released in a special 200th Anniversary Edition. “The 256-page hardcover book features an 8-page vellum insert detailing the doctor’s designs, and a stunning, full bleed, double gatefold image of the monster. Finished with printed endpapers and painted book block, this masterpiece volume is perfect for book lovers and art lovers alike.

Re-mixed and re-mastered for vinyl, CREEPSHOW has never sounded better, and features

In 2015 the horror world was wonderfully blown away by a collection of terrifying stories by Kasey Pierce. This collection was met with awe and excitement selling out in a mere two days. Now it returns in a new and expanded version! This new version will include two brand new stories as well as new art by comic artist Ryan Lee and others. Pierce has accompanied many of her stories with short films and ideally, she wants to do an anthology film of her stories narrated by horror icon Dirk Manning on commentary. “If we can get to $3,000, we’re not only going to edit them all together in one video.” “If you’re already a fan of Kasey’s, this will be the definitive “bookshelf” piece of her early career, and if you’re new to her work, you couldn’t ask for a better jumping on point! Get yours now and help us get these beautiful books printed and out into the
