About this title

Synopsis

Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy, and the Wolf Man are probably the most recognizable monsters in cinema history. These monsters are the icons of horror. Children of the Night is the most complete and comprehensive collection of posters for these and many other great films of the Golden Age of Horror. This book contains more than 1,000 poster pictures on almost 300 full-color pages. These are the very best images ever created for horror movies. The posters are from the horror movies of the 1920s through the early-1950s, with an emphasis on the 1930s and 1940s films released by Universal Pictures.
