About the Show
In the early 1970s, three books changed horror forever: Rosemary's Baby , The Exorcist , and The Other . The first horror novels to hit bestseller lists since 1940, they opened the floodgates for an avalanche of horror paperbacks to flood supermarket and drugstore shelves throughout the 1970s and '80s before Silence of the Lambs slit the genre's throat in the early '90s.
Now, New York Times –bestselling author Grady Hendrix delivers his award-winning, mind-melting oral history of this wild and woolly world of Nazi leprechauns, skeleton doctors, killer crabs, killer jellyfish, and killer fetuses, featuring more tales of terrifying tots, tricycles, clowns, puppets, and heavy metal bands than should be strictly legal.
Prepare yourself for a tour of this long-lost universe of terror that lurked behind the lurid, foil-embossed, die-cut covers of... The Paperbacks from Hell!!!!
