Johnny Halloween
“Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolf Man…you can toss in the Mummy, too. We’re talking early sixties here, when the Universal Studios creepers reigned over the popular culture landscape—one they’d dominated, at that point, for more than thirty years. I cut my imaginative teeth on those movies, and then I went looking for more stuff that would provide the same kind of thrill. It was a good time to do that, because the late sixties and early seventies marked a golden age for young horror fans. Monster... culture had trickled down into kid culture in a big way, and not just in film and television. Famous Monsters magazine was easily found at the local bottle shop (my mom’s polite parental euphemism for “liquor store”).

Paperback anthologies featuring classic horror stories were plentiful and cheap in creaky turnstile racks.MoreLess
