  2. Having not been around young children for quite some time (everyone in my family is slightly older), I just want to say I forgot how bananas and straight to the point kids can be.

    This was a great (and surprisingly informative and informed) video. I laughed, and learned the whole way through. Great job!

  3. Nice job...pops may want to watch out, his job at the Vault is on shaky ground after that review!

    I loved Creepy Magazine (and Eerie too!) when I was a kid, and I am always tempted to pick up a few original issues at cons. Maybe next time I will...I love the nostalgia that those classic horror stories have within them! Maybe I will even check out an issue of the new series while I'm at it too!

  4. An old buddy of mine had a huge collection of Creepy, Eerie and Heavy Metal he had inheritied from his uncle. When we were kids we spent hours and hours in his basement perusing these fantastic magazines. I loved Creepy, especially the older editions, which not only had great monsters, but were also just great tales.

    There was one I can remember where a man is on the trail of a beast, perhaps the wendigo. He is in the deep woods in the middle of a blizzard. It is so cold he is hallucinating, and at one point in order to save his feet he has to put them in the fire he is huddled over. I remember this story so well because not all the fright came from the monster in the woods, but also from nature and the madness of the hunter's mind.
