All those publishing houses were great and the only thing that kept me from them as not being able to save enough lunch money from school each week to get all the titles I wanted. Actually I am not doing a book. That is commenter Mike H. He ahs a facebook page if you want to get some updates on Eerie Pub stuff at:: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/The-Weird-World-of-Eerie-Publications/188004885719?ref=ts He is a regular commenter here, maybe only one of a three or four to be honest. I am glad people like you respond to my posts that are outside films since I have many interests and have had quite a few experiences with old mags and movies. If you drop by Mike H.s FB page tell him Bill sent you :) Bill Tim

I was a fanatic for horror comics and I read them all--the Stanley's, the Skywald's, Creepy and Eerie...but there was nothing quite as satisfying in the fourth grade as reading a copy of Eerie's HORROR TALES or TALES FROM THE TOMB etc. and seeing the looks on the faces of my classmates and (especially!), my teachers. I mean, what other magazines had such ghoulish, grisly covers? Where else could you see a werewolf pounding a stake through a mummy's chest or vampire women ripping a bloody heart from a ghoul's chest? I don't think I would be writing horror stories today if it wasn't for Eerie Publications. I'm really looking forward to your book and it's high time somebody got around to writing it. Can't wait to see the cover--I know you'll not spare the gore! If you get a chance, could you put up "I Chopped Her Head Off" from Witches' Tales or "House of Monsters" from Horror Tales? Two great blood-drenched tales!!! Bill, I, like you, grew up reading these in the early ’70’s.

I have a premium membership I paid for there so I got the files really fast. I think I just typed in 'eerie publications Rapidshare' and started getting some hits on Googles and after a while found some sites that had many of the titles in Rapidshare format. I got some from a Demonoid download as well, but most from Rapidshare files. Hope it helps a little. I can spend a long time searching for stuff like this. Seldom comes quickly. There is a zen element involved somewhere. Bill I got a huge collection of Eerie Publications from a Rapidshare search. I have a premium membership I paid for there so I got the files really fast.

You are right, back then .35 cents got a lot. I remember the added blood splotches. I regret I did not them a chance back then. I was so blinded by the Warren mags and Marvel Comics. I recall I had so few DC comics, and no Charalton or the other titles. Just loads of Marvel and Warren stuff. Here is a Facebook page that focuses on eerie Pubs: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/The-Weird-World-of-Eerie-Publications/188004885719?ref=ts Great that you still have those.

Still have a full box of them tucked away. The covers where amazing. Silly but amazing. Actually, it looked like more blood was added in some of the stories. Big blobs of blood. Still, for 35 cents you couldn't go wrong. I pretty much grew up with Warren magazines and… these. Still have a full box of them tucked away. The covers where amazing. Silly but amazing.

I commend you. Too bad I did not appreciate these books when I saw them on the stands as a lad. If you remember let me know when your book is out and I will promote it here. My knowledge is elementary here at best on this subject. Will be great to have an actual quality text on some of the history around these amazing magazines and the shady but facinating Myron Fass. Not really that much on the net that I could find on just one cup of coffee. Thanks. Bill Mike
