  • Time-travel back to the horrifying era of 1957-1972, when monsters stomped into the American mainstream!

This profusely illustrated, full-colour hardcover covers that creepy, kooky Monster Craze via options on Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, the number 1 hit “Monster Mash,” Aurora’s style kits, TV displays (Shock Theatre, The Addams Family, The Munsters, and Dark Shadows), Mars Attacks trading cards, Eerie Publications, Planet of the Apes, and more!
  • It options interviews with James Warren (Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella magazines), Forrest J Ackerman (Famous Monsters of Filmland), John Astin (The Addams Family), Al Lewis (The Munsters), Jonathan Frid (Dark Shadows), George Barris (monster automotive customizer), Ed “Large Daddy” Roth (Rat Fink), Bobby (Boris) Pickett (“Monster Mash” singer/songwriter) and others, with a Foreword by TV horror host Zacherley, the “Cool Ghoul.”
