#NewYearNewBooks #ToyCover I never saw blocks that looked this sinister!💀

LeahBergen What a great retro cover! 10mo
Leftcoastzen @LeahBergen well , it was published in 1988. The 80s had a certain horror look. It was funny , I worked in a bookstore in that era that liked to shelve as many as possible , like 90% face out. This family used to come down from the mountains & shop the store about quarterly. They complained we didn‘t have a horror section, blended w/ fiction. They wailed , how can we find them! I said , Maybe the covers hold a clue! 10mo
LeahBergen 😆😆 Really?? You can spot them from a block away! I know, because I was a big horror shopper myself in the ‘80s. 😆😆 10mo

It‘s weird .I guess because other than Stephen King , I would say I basically don‘t read horror.I traded some books the other day and picked out these two 1980s horror beauties still under the influence of the incredible book I read last year ,the funny , witty,Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix
