Richard Klemensen’s Little Shoppe of Horrors is one of the genre’s best publications. Like Gary Svehla’s beautiful Midnight Marquee, it is a labor of love for its publisher and it is currently up to issue twenty-six.

Readers can also find in-depth interviews with actors such as Alan Wheatley (from 1981!), Jane Merrow,...

The Most “Famous Monster” Of Them All
A Personal Remembrance of Forrest J Ackerman
by Steve Vertlieb
In a child-like land of dreams and dragons dwelt a Pied Piper of imagination, a Santa Claus of fantasy and horror, who lived in the mythical kingdom of Horrorweird, Karloffornia. His name was Forrest J Ackerman but, to his friends and colleagues, he was simply “Forry.”
