Book excerpt: It has been gone for three decades, but the titles of Eerie Publications are still sought after and enjoyed by readers across the world. Over a 15-year span (1966-1981) Eerie Publishing made its mark as a publisher of B&W horror magazines, competing primarily with the Warren titles and a few of the more successful Marvel magazines. Their output was a mix of original stories and plenty of reprints from the pre- and post-code era. WEIRD VAMPIRE TALES, was stocked mostly with B&W versions of 1950s stories, many extensively reworked - IN FACT, IN MOST CASES COMPLETELY REDRAWN ---- along with a few original illustrations in each issue. This is a fascinating look at how stories were repurposed for a new generation, made more graphic and gory. We are offering the complete 10-issue series in two volumes, in print together for the first time! It is interesting to note that while these stories are all public domain today, at the time they were used in WEIRD VAMPIRE TALES, most were not.

Book excerpt: Getting over Your Vampire Ex is as Easy as Killing Him and Stealing His Girlfriend Holly Liddell has been stuck with crimped hair since 1987 when she agreed to let her boyfriend, Elton, turn her into a vampire. But when he ditches her at a gas station a few decades into their eternity together, she realizes that being young forever actually means working graveyard shifts at Taco Bell, sleeping in seedy motels, and being supernaturally compelled to follow your ex from town to town—at least until Holly meets Elton’s other exes. It seems that Holly isn’t the only girl Elton seduced into this wretched existence. He turned Ida in 1921, then Rose in 1954, and he abandoned them both before Holly was even born. Now Rose and Ida want to kill him before he can trick another girl into eternal adolescence, and they’ll need Holly’s help to do it. And once Holly starts falling for Elton’s vulnerable new conquest, Parker, she’ll do anything to save her. To kill Elton for good, Holly and her friends will have to dig up their pasts, rob a bank, and reconcile with the people they’ve hurt in their search for eternal love. And to win the girl, Holly will have to convince Parker that she’s more than just Elton’s crazy ex—even though she is trying to kill him.
Download or read book The Horror from the Mound written by Robert E. Howard and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by Robert E. Howard was originally published in the 1932 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Horror from the Mound' is one of Howard's stories in the weird west genre, a combination of a western and a horror or fantasy. Robert Ervin Howard was born in Peaster, Texas in 1906. During his youth, his family moved between a variety of Texan boomtowns, and Howard - a bookish and somewhat introverted child - was steeped in the violent myths and legends of the Old South. At fifteen Howard began to read the pulp magazines of the day, and to write more seriously. The December 1922 issue of his high school newspaper featured two of his stories, 'Golden Hope Christmas' and 'West is West'. In 1924 he sold his first piece - a short caveman tale titled 'Spear and Fang' - for $16 to the not-yet-famous Weird Tales magazine. Howard's most famous character, Conan the Cimmerian, was a barbarian-turned-King during the Hyborian Age, a mythical period of some 12,000 years ago. Conan featured in seventeen Weird Tales stories between 1933 and 1936 which is why Howard is now regarded as having spawned the 'sword and sorcery' genre. The Conan stories have since been adapted many times, most famously in the series of films starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
