The Art of Horror: An Illustrated History

The Art of Horror: An Illustrated History is a great coffee table book. It is filled with incredible images and an astounding collection of horror movie posters. Each chapter centers around different monsters/characters ranging from traditional vampires, to dragons, to ghosts and aliens. Simply put, it's very thorough on its collection of horror monsters.

I loved flipping through this collection. From an artistic standpoint, the images were magnificent. I also loved seeing how many films were created based on certain characters. Many I had never heard of. A horror buff would love this book. Even non horror fans may enjoy flipping through this book. It's different, but contains a lot.
