Halloween Movies 2022: MeTV

Posted on by

Rerun channel MeTV—home to Star Trek, The A-Team, and The Andy Griffith Show, among other old-school series—doesn’t have Halloween programming, but they do celebrate the holiday in their own way, so here are the highlights of what they’re offering tomorrow (all times listed are Eastern Time):

9:00–10:00 a.m.: Bugs Bunny and Friends: It’s a special collection of “horror”-themed Loony Tunes cartoons, starring Bugs, Sylvester the Cat, Yosemite Sam, Witch Hazel, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and others: “Hyde and Go Tweet,” “A Witch’s Tangled Hare,” “Big Game Haunt,” “Shishkabugs,” “The Phantom Ship,” “The Haunted Mouse,” and “Hyde and Hare.” What, no Gossamer cartoons? Geez, MeTV, don’t you know by now that monsters make the most innnn-tuh-restin’ people?

6:00 p.m.: The Three Stooges: Moe, Larry, and Curly (and also Shemp) face off with the supernatural in the shorts “Idle Roomers,” “If a Body Meets a Body,” “Dopey Dicks,” “Spooks,” “Creeps,” and “Who Done It.” Eye pokes, face smacks, and gut punches abound—but it’s all in fun, kids.

8:00 p.m.: Svengoolie: Count Yorga, Vampire: The much-loved horror-movie host presents this 1970 fright flick starring Robert Quarry as the titular undead royal in a very loose adaptation/knockoff of Dracula, moving the action from 19th-century England to late 1960s Southern California. There’s no extra charge for all the corny jokes Sven will be inserting into the broadcast.

10:00 p.m.: Sventoonie’s Scary, Merry Halloween: Sventoonie, the Red Tuna of Terror—basically a puppet version of Svengoolie—hosts this holiday special in which, according to MeTV, he “is determined to give Halloween all the joy and traditions that Christmas has, including the cult classic Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.” Well, you do what you can with public domain material, right? 

11:00 p.m.: Star Trek: “The Doomsday Machine”: This Norman Spinrad–scripted Season 2 episode has nothing in common with the Spooky Season (that would be the episodes “Catspaw,” with its witchcraft overtones, and “Wolf in the Fold,” about Jack the Ripper), but it does have an unstoppable monster of sorts in the form of a giant machine that smashes planets and then eats them for fuel. It’s up to Captain Kirk (William Shatner) to figure out a way to stop it.

12:00 a.m.: Kolchak: The Night Stalker: “Mr. R.I.N.G.”: Reporter Carl Kolchak (Darren McGavin) tracks down a murderer that turns out to be a runaway android. It’s not one of the better episodes of this one-season horror series that inspired The X-Files, but McGavin is entertaining, and it features a guest appearance from Julie Adams, the female lead of the classic “Gillman” film, The Creature From the Black Lagoon. 

Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at IFC’s Halloween programming. Stay tuned!

Halloween Movies 2022: Turner Classic Movies

Posted on by

For years, Turner Classic Movies (TCM) has offered a wealth of classic horror movies during its October-long celebration of the Spooky Season, and this year has been no different. Here’s what they’re running, all day long and into the night, on Halloween:

12:15 a.m.: Haxan (1922): This black-and-white silent film from Sweden (its title means The Witch) is a documentary-style examination on demonology, witchcraft, and superstition, with the sort of dramatized “reenactments” you’ll find in “reality shows” these days on the Travel Channel (aka Ghost Central) and the History Channel (aka the Alien Home Base).

4:00 a.m.: Eyes Without a Face (1959): Not the Billy Idol pop hit from 1984, but a French horror movie about a plastic surgeon determined to undo the damage his daughter suffered in a car crash, by any means necessary—even if that means targeting women whose faces he’ll use for possible skin transplants…

6:00 a.m.: The Bat (1959): Horror legend Vincent Price and Agnes Moorehead (Bewitched, The Twilight Zone) star in this murder mystery about a costumed killer known as The Bat, based on Mary Roberts Rhinehart’s 1908 novel The Circular Staircase.

9:00 a.m.: Horror Hotel (1960): Another horror legend, Christopher Lee (Count Dooku of Star Wars, as you younger viewers might know him), kicks off a TCM mini ChrisLee-athon (five movies in a row!) as he contends with witchcraft and Satan wosrshippers in a Massachusetts town.

10:30 a.m.: The Curse of Frankenstein (1957): Christopher Lee returns to the screen, this time to star as the Monster in this Hammer Films adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Costarring Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin of Star Wars, to you younger viewers) as the Monster’s creator, Victor Frankenstein.

1:30 p.m.: The Mummy (1959): Christopher Lee shambles from the tomb as the bandaged monster in Hammer Films’ answer to Universal Studios’ classic Mummy flicks atarring Boris Karloff. Costarring Peter Cushing as the archaeologist determined to send the Mummy back to the afterlife.

3:00 p.m.: The Devil’s Bride (1968): Christopher Lee investigates Satanic doings in 1920s London, in this adaptation by author/screenwriter Richard Matheson (I Am Legend, The Incredible Shrinking Man) of the 1934 Dennis Wheatley novel The Devil Rides Out.

4:45 p.m.: Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972): Christopher Lee’s immortal Dracula and Peter Cushing’s Van Helsing (the latest descendant) mix it up again in this seventh entry in Hammer’s Dracula series. Costarring Stephanie Beacham (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Christopher Neame (Lust for a Vampire), and Caroline Munro (Captain Kronos—Vampire Hunter)

6:30 p.m.: The Plague of the Zombies (1966): A 19th-century English village gets overrun by zombies in this Hammer production, starring Andre Morell (The Hound of the Baskervilles), Jacqueline Pearce (Doctor Who), and Diane Clare (The Hand of Night).

8:00 p.m.: The Bride of Frankenstein (1935): Holy AMC—running the sequel before the original? What is it with these programming guys? Boris Karloff stars as the misunderstood Monster who’s searching for love and companionship, with Elsa Lanchester as his intended bride (and as Mary Shelley, in the film’s prologue), and Colin Clive as their creator, Henry Frankenstein. Directed by James Whale. 

11:15 p.m.: Frankenstein (1931): The movie that made Boris Karloff a horror legend. In this Universal Studios’ adaptation of Mary Shelley’s novel, Henry Frankenstein (Colin Clive) meddles with forces beyond his control, piecing together parts of corpses to form a Monster that will come to be hated—and learn to hate in kind. Directed by James Whale. Costarring Edward Van Sloan and Dwight Frye—Professor Van Helsing and Renfield, respectively of Bela Lugosi’s Dracula, released that same year.

12:30 a.m.: The Invisible Man (1933): Director James Whale steps away from Frankenstein’s Monster for this adaptation of the H.G. Wells novel about a scientist (played by Claude Rains) who’s created an invisibility formula, experimented on himself with it, and is ultimately driven mad.

Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at MeTV’s Halloween-themed programming for this coming Saturday (they don’t have anything for Halloween itself). Stay tuned!

Halloween Movies 2022: Movies! TV Network

Posted on by

Movies! has really gotten into Halloween this year, with Spooky Season–themed movie marathons running in October—a day of vampire films, a day of ghosts, a day of alien invaders, even a day of Vincent Price! Their Halloween schedule is sort of a blend of those topics, but every one is a classic. Okay, maybe not Earth vs. the Spider, but that has its charms, too…

Here’s what Movies! is offering for All Hallows’ Eve (all times listed are Eastern Time):

6:00 a.m.: Fiend Without a Face (1958): Marshall Thompson, Kim Parker, and Kynaston Reeves battle an atomic-powered invisible monster that likes to collect brains and spinal cords in order to create an army of similar horrors.

7:35 a.m.: Earth vs. the Spider (1958): Ed Kemmer and June Kenney try to save a town from a giant spider out to kill everyone. How’d it get so big? No one knows, but like the Fiend Without a Face, it’s probably nuclear related; irradiated monsters created by atomic bomb testings were all the rage in the 1950s (for example, Godzilla, Them!, Tarantula).

9:15 a.m.: The Blob (1958): Steve McQueen, Aneta Corseaut, and Earl Rowe have to deal with a big jelly monster from outer space that’s come to destroy their town—and eat everyone in its path! It practically oozes terror!

11:00 a.m.: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1941): Spencer Tracy stars as the two-sided monster, Lana Turner as the woman Jekyll loves, and Ingrid Bergman as a pretty barmaid who draws the lascivious eye of the beastial Hyde in this adaptation of the classic novella by Robert Louis Stevenson.

1:30 p.m.: House of Wax (1953): Horror legend Vincent Price is a renowned sculptor turned madman (hey, it happens) who now runs a wax museum. Phyllis Kirk (The Twilight Zone), Charles Bronson (Death Wish), and Carolyn Jones (the original Morticia of The Addams Family) costar in this lavish flick about an artist who uses his gifts for revenge—and murder! It was originally presented in 3-D, so don’t be surprised when objects are hurled toward you at certain points.

3:30 p.m.: The Haunting (1963): Based on the classic Shirley Jackson novel The Haunting of Hill House, Julie Harris (The Dark Half), Claire Bloom (Clash of the Titans), Richard Johnson (The Monster Club), and Russ Tamblyn (Twin Peaks) star in this frightfully entertaining story involving a paranormal investigation of a haunted house that goes horribly wrong. Directed by Robert Wise (The Day the Earth Stood Still, Star Trek: The Motion Picture).

5:55 p.m.: House of Dark Shadows (1970): Jonathan Frid, Joan Bennett, and Grayson Hall star in this adaptation of the then-popular gothic soap opera, directed by creator Dan Curtis (The Night Strangler, Trilogy of Terror). Frid is Barnabas Collins, a lovelorn vampire smitten with a woman who resembles his long-ago greatest love; Joan Bennett is a scientist who might find a way to restore his humanity—if only she wasn’t so jealous of Barnabas’s true love… (Fun fact: The movie was shot in Sleepy Hollow, New York—home to the Headless Horseman!)

8:00 p.m.: The Fog (1980): Adrienne Barbeau (Swamp Thing), Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween Ends), her real-life mother Janet Leigh (Psycho), Hal Holbrook, John Houseman, and Tom Atkins (Halloween III: Season of the Witch) star in this film by director John Carpenter (Halloween, Christine) about a sleepy little West Coast town suddenly overrun by ghostly pirates—and not a Jack Sparrow to be seen!

10:00 p.m.: The Howling (1981): Dee Wallace Stone (Halloween), Patrick MacNee (The Avengers), Dennis Dugan (Happy Gilmore), and Robert Picardo (Star Trek: Voyager) star in this adaptation of the Gray Brandner novel, about a TV news reporter who, after being traumatized by an assault by a serial killer, travels with her husband to The Colony, a secluded resort, to rest. But the residents of The Colony and its surrounding area all share a terrifying secret, and it doesn’t take a full moon to bring out the beast in them… Directed by Joe Dante (Piranha, Gremlins) and featuring a screenplay by John Sayles (Alligator, Eight MenOut) and Terence Winkless, and amazing transformation effects by Rob Bottin (Game of Thrones).

12:30 a.m.: Black Christmas (1974): Olivia Hussey (Batman Beyond), Keir Dullea (2001: A Space Odyssey), Margot Kidder (Superman), and John Saxon (A Nightmare on Elm Street) star in this slasher by writer/director Bob Clark, about sorority sisters being stalked by a murderer during Christmastime.

Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at Turner Classic Movies’ programming. Stay tuned!

Halloween Movies 2022: AMC

Posted on by

Like Freeform, AMC never really has a lot of variety when it comes to their annual Halloween playlist—in AMC’s case, if they’re not pushing one of their horror series (typically the zombie apocalypse The Walking Dead, now entering its final season), they’re running the Halloween franchise movies on a loop, usually out of order (as demonstrated below, with Halloween 6 kicking off the marathon for some reason) and with no sign of 1981’s Halloween II or 1982’s Michael Myers–less Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

(Keep in mind: As far as the makers of the most recent trilogy—Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills, and Halloween Ends—contend, none of the other movies in the franchise exist in their timeline, except for the original, 1978 Halloween. Confusing, eh?)

Anyway, here’s what AMC is offering for All Hallows’ Eve (all times listed are Eastern Time):

12:15 a.m.: The Walking Dead: An episode of the long-running TV series adapting the comic book series created by writer Robert Kirkman.

1:22 a.m.: Interview with the Vampire (2022): An episode of the new TV series adapting Anne Rice’s novel.

2:26 a.m.: The Walking Dead: Another episode of the TV series.

9:00 a.m.: Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995): It’s the end of a film trilogy begun in Halloween 4–5, so naturally AMC runs it before the other two installments. Michael is on the warpath (isn’t he always, though?), intending to kill Laurie Strode’s daughter, Jamie Lloyd (J.C. Brandy). The final film appearance of Donald Pleasance (Halloween, Halloween 4–5, Escape From New York) as Michael’s gun-toting psychiatrist, Dr. Sam Loomis, as he passed away after H6 was shot.

11:00 a.m.: Halloween: Resurrection (2002): Another case of broadcasting idiocy, as this sequel to Halloween H20: 20 Years Later runs first. Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Michael have their “final” confrontation, but it’s not the end of the story as Michael shifts his attention from targeting high school kids to college girls. Costarring Busta Rhymes (The Rugrats Movie), Katee Sackhoff (The Mandalorian), and supermodel Tyra Banks.

1:00 p.m.: Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988): Ten years after stalking Jamie Lee Curtis’s Laurie Strode on Halloween night (well, technically seven years, considering 1981’s Halloween II took place the same night) and a failed box office attempt with Halloween III to make the series an anthology rather than a repetitive one-note killing spree, Michael picks up where he left off, only this time he’s after Laurie’s young daughter, Jamie Lloyd (future scream queen Danielle Harris, in her film debut), and only his nemesis, Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasance, returning to the franchise) can stop him.

3:00 p.m.: Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989): Michael’s back—of course—and he hasn’t given up on killing Jamie Lloyd. Tunnel vision matched with singlemindedness—that’s always been that boy’s problem…well, that and the homicidal rage. Donald Pleasance and Danielle Harris return, in a story to be continued in the previously broadcast Halloween 6.

5:00 p.m.: Halloween (1978): The John Carpenter–directed classic that started it all. Fifteen years after he stabbed his sister to death, Michael Myers breaks loose from the sanitarium in which he was locked away and goes on a killing spree on Halloween night in his hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois. Starring Jamie Lee Curtis as “final girl” Laurie Strode and Donald Pleasance as Dr. Sam Loomis. Is Michael really the boogeyman? He just might be…

7:00 p.m.: Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998): Director Steve Miner (Lake Placid, Friday the 13th Parts 2–3) sends Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) back to Haddonfield twenty years after her traumatic encounters with Michael, accompanied this time by LL Cool J (Deep Blue Sea), Michelle Williams (Venom), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (The Dark Knight Rises). Guess who’s waiting for them…?

9:00 p.m.: Halloween: Resurrection (repeat broadcast, now in its proper sequence placement)

11:00 p.m.: Halloween (1978; repeat broadcast)

Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at Movies! TV Network’s programming. Stay tuned!

Halloween Movies 2022: Freeform

Posted on by

Halloween is almost here! Sure, it might look like Christmas is almost upon us, what with stores already decorating their aisles for yuletide and the Spooky Season stuff relegated to the back shelves, but for the rest of us it’s still the time to celebrate all things macabre. So what better way than to watch horror movies?

Starting today, we’ll take a look at what some of the cable channels are offering for programming on that special day. We begin with Freeform…

There aren’t many surprises involved in Freeform’s annual “31 Nights of Halloween” programming schedule—it tends to be a handful of popular, not-very-scary, family-friendly movies that you’ve no doubt already seen, run over and over again and occasionally interspersed with episodes of The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror. The biggest shakeup this year came early in the month when they ran the very adult Get Out, Halloween (2018), A Quiet Place, Happy Death Day, and Happy Death Day 2U over two nights—and then quickly returned to the less stressful playlist.

So if you’re in the mood for “comfort food” spooky films, here’s what Freeform is offering for Halloween (all times listed are Eastern Time):

10:30 a.m.: Ghostbusters (1984): The original horror comedy starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Sigourney Weaver, Ernie Hudson, Rick Moranis, and Annie Potts. The GB crew deals with a New York City overrun with ghosts in anticipation of the arrival of the extradimensional goddess Zuul and her Destructor: the Staypuft Marshmallow Man!

1:00 p.m.: The Haunted Mansion (2003): Eddie Murphy, Marsha Thomason, Terence Stamp, Wallace Shawn, and Jennifer Tilly star in this adaptation of the spooky Disney ride.

3:00 p.m.: Beetlejuice (1988): Tim Burton directs Michael Keaton, Geena Davis, Alec Baldwin, and Winona Ryder in the tale of a recently deceased couple who simply want to spend eternity haunting their home, only to be forced to call in a disgusting “bio-exorcist” named Beetlejuice to scare away the new family moving in. And that’s when everything goes horribly wrong…

5:00 p.m.: Maleficent (2014): Angelina Jolie stars in this live-action reinterpretation of the Disney animated classic Sleeping Beauty, with Jolie’s fairy queen Maleficent not so much evil as in the original, but simply misunderstood. Hey, like the saying goes, every villain is the hero of their own story!

7:00 p.m.: Hotel Transylvania (2012): Adam Sandler is Dracula! Steve Buscemi is the Wolfman! Kevin James is Frankenstein’s Monster! Selena Gomez is Dracula’s daughter! And they all get together at…Dracula’s vacation resort? 

9:00 p.m.: Hocus Pocus (1993): With Hocus Pocus 2 now on Disney+, here’s the opportunity for folks not paying for a streaming service to catch up on the spooky comedy that stars Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the Sanderson Sisters, a trio of evil witches seeking immortality.

12:00 a.m.: The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror episodes (Freeform doesn’t list what’s playing)

Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at AMC’s programming. Stay tuned!

Halloween Movies 2022: What’s Your Monster Movie?

Posted on by

According to this popular meme, mine would be Curse of the Disco Zombies, which sounds right, given I spent part of my youth reading horror comics in the 1970s, at the height of disco. No doubt it stars Jaaaahhhhn! Revolta, shambling his way through the cemeteries of Brooklyn while boogeying with Karloff Lynn Gore-y to the tunes of the Bees?Geez!. “Stayin’ Alive” takes on a whole new meaning when your dance partner is a zombie!

It’s a timely question, because in preparation for Halloween this year, we’ll be taking a look at what some of the cable-TV stations will be offering in terms of spooky programming on All Hallows’ Eve. And don’t worry—if you need a break from all the blood and monsters, you can always swing over to the Hallmark channels, which are already knee-deep in their Countdown to Christmas movie marathons.

Celebrating Christmas in October?! That’s terrifying!

So, getting back to the subject…what is your monster movie?

Horror Comics for the Spooky Season from StarWarp Concepts

Posted on by

With Halloween only a couple of weeks away, are you looking for illustrated tales of the supernatural to enjoy—as in comic books and graphic novels? Well, it just so happens that Pan’s publisher, StarWarp Concepts, has a few titles that are perfect for horror-comic fans!

The Saga of Pandora Zwieback #0: A free, downloadable comic that serves as an introduction to the adventures of Pandora Zwieback and her monster-hunting mentor, Sebastienne “Annie” Mazarin, with an 8-page story written by me and illustrated by Eliseu Gouveia (Vengeance of the Mummy, Stargate Universe), and a preview of Pan’s first novel, Blood Feud: The Saga of Pandora Zwieback, Book 1. Pan is a 16-year-old Goth girl who’s spent the last decade being treated for mental health problems because she can see monsters. It’s only after she meets Annie that Pan discovers she’s never been ill—her so-called “monstervision” is actually a supernatural gift that allows her to see into Gothopolis, the not-so-mythical shadow world that exists right alongside the human world.    

The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual #1: A 56-page, full-color comic special that features cover art by award-winning artist Henar Torinos (Mala Estrella) and contains three original stories. In “Song of the Siren,” by writer Steven A. Roman and artist Eliseu Gouveia, the teenaged Goth adventuress matches wits with a man-stealing enchantress who’s set her sights on Pan’s boyfriend, Javier. It’s followed by “After Hours,” by writer Sholly Fisch (The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries), and comic-art legend Ernie Colon (Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld), in which a demon walks into a bar to unwind after a long day of scarifying. And rounding out the issue is “Shopping Maul,” a short story by Roman with title-page art by Elizabeth Watasin (Charm School), in which Pan and Annie, along with Javier and Pan’s best friend, Sheena, run into a group of Gothic Lolita vampires out to do more than a little window shopping.

Troubleshooters, Incorporated: Night Stalkings: A graphic novel about a group of supernatural-superheroes-for-hire taking on their first case. The team consists of a wizard, a female ninja, a sorceress, a werewolf, and a rock ’n’ roll lighting designer wearing high-tech armor. Sure, they might not be on a power level with the Avengers or Justice League of America—they’re more like superpowered Ghostbusters, or along the lines of the JLA’s supernatural spin-off, Justice League Dark—but they get the job done. The graphic novel is written by the husband-and-white team of Richard C. White (Chasing Danger: The Case Files of Theron Chase) and Joni M. White, and illustrated by Reggie Golden and Randy Zimmerman.

The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual and Troubleshooters Incorporated are available in print and digital formats. Pandora Zwieback #0 is a digital exclusive. Visit their respective product pages at StarWarp Concepts for ordering information, as well as sample pages.

Classic Horror for the Spooky Season from StarWarp Concepts

Posted on by

With the Spooky Season in full swing this month (although, really, it started in August, when the decorations started popping up in stores), are you looking for chilling tales of the supernatural to enjoy, as you anxiously wait for Halloween? Then look no further than the backlist of titles produced by Pan’s publisher, StarWarp Concepts, that are perfect for horror fans young and old!

Carmilla: J. Sheridan Le Fanu’s 19th-century classic vampiric tale of love gone wrong. Laura is so desperate for a friend that when a young woman named Carmilla practically turns up on the doorstep of the castle owned by Laura’s father, she thinks her prayers for companionship have been answered. But as she comes to realize, Carmilla isn’t as interested in making friends as she is in spilling blood.

Regarded as the one of the earliest female vampire tales—if not the first—Carmilla was an influence on author Bram Stoker in the creation of the vampire brides in his seminal novel, Dracula, and remains a popular character in fiction to this day. The SWC edition contains six original illustrations done especially for StarWarp Concepts by super-talented comic artist Eliseu Gouveia, whose work you’re familiar with if you’ve downloaded The Saga of Pandora Zwieback #0, or read The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual #1.

King Kong: SWC’s e-book-exclusive Illustrated Classics edition of the official novelization of the renowned motion picture, first published in 1932. Written by Delos W. Lovelace, based on the story by Edgar Wallace and Merian C. Cooper and the screenplay by James A. Creelman and Ruth Rose, the SWC edition of King Kong features scenes that didn’t appear in the final cut of the film—including the notorious “spider pit” sequence in which Kong’s human pursuers are attacked by horrific arachnids and insects. What makes this version special is that it contains six exclusive, original black-and-white illustrations by comics artist Paul Tuma, whose pulp-influenced style has appeared in the pages of The Twilight Avenger, Flare, and Dan Turner: Hollywood Detective.

Snow White: The classic story by the Brothers Grimm. Featuring full-color illustrations first published in 1883 (and they really are beautiful drawings), this digital-exclusive titleis available for immediate download for the wickedly low price of just 99¢! 

White Fell—The Werewolf: Originally published in 1896 as The Were-wolf, it was written by renowned author, artist, and suffragette Clemence Annie Housman, and is regarded by scholars as perhaps the first feminist werewolf story. In it, twin brothers encounter a beautiful, mysterious woman known only as White Fell—a woman one brother believes is a murderous werewolf. Complications arise when his twin falls in love with White Fell. Can he save his brother before he falls completely under her spell?

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow: Washington Irving’s legendary tale of the Headless Horseman has captivated readers ever since its first publication in 1820, in Irving’s collection The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., and in the 200+ years since it’s become the quintessential Halloween story, as well as the basis for countless movies, TV shows, comic books, and other pop-culture adaptations. When schoolteacher Ichabod Crane arrived in Sleepy Hollow, New York, he had dreams of marrying beautiful socialite Katrina of the wealthy Van Tassel family, only to lose his head (both figuratively and literally!) when he encountered the horrific Headless Horseman one fateful night!

Carmilla is available in print and digital formats; King Kong, Snow White, White Fell: The Werewolf, and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow are digital exclusives. Visit their respective product pages at StarWarp Concepts for ordering information.
