1969 article: "My Life As A Monster" by Boris Karloff

From the collection cabinets come Issue #14 of the legendary "Castle of Frankenstein" magazine, published in 1969, which contained this article "My Life As A Monster," which is more special since it is written by Karloff himself. Enjoy the unique article and rare photos!

(In case the Star Trek cover interests you, I have posted that feature article on another blog, "My Star Trek Scrapbook.")

Below, from the same issue is a reprint of an article on Karloff from a 1940 movie magazine.

Monster Squad article

"Monster Squad" finally came out on DVD not too long ago, after a wait of many long years by affectionate fans of the movie. Enjoy this writeup about the film from a couple of years ago, back when having it available for home viewing was only an option for those that still had the old videotape release.

The artwork and article come from issue #6 of Horrorhound magazine, which you can buy here.

The "Monster Bash" pinball machine

In 1998 Williams put out the ultimate Universal Monsters pinball game, with awesome artwork. Above is the front of the advertising flyer for the game, below is the back. I was never a pinball player, but I loved the art for many of those with genre-related themes. Go to My Star Trek Scrapbook blog to see the 1979 Star Trek game!

And for the rest of the post is the back panel art, with details of the playing area. Loads of monsterous fun!

And lastly, enjoy the promo video for the game starring The Bride, in all her big-beehive-haired glory!
