Customer Reviews

Excellent Encyclopedia

Like another reviewer, I checked this book out in my middle school's library and read it entirely. Even seven years later (at the time of this review) I can still recall some very memorable creatures from those pages. It is a truly wonderful book for anyone even remotely interested in the various supernatural beings you see in movies. If you are a fan of movies, horror, or have any interest in monsters, this book is definitely worth picking up.

This book changed my life.

I checked this book out of my local library when I was 12. I read it cover to cover and have never been the same since. It helped shaped my creative interest at a young age and opened a whole new world of goblins, vampires, zombies, and 50 foot women. This is a very detailed and thorough examination of a dying art form. Pick this up for your preteen kid and you won't be sorry. If there not a big fan of monsters, they will be.

Awesome

This book is awesome. It has every single monster from comics, film, books, and art. It has detailed descriptions of it all. The Perfect Horror Buff Book.
