Book Description
This book will haunt you--until you get the answers right. It is a devilishly delightful collection of 1,814 questions and answers about the best and worst horror films ever made. From the silent movies of the 1920s to the scream queens of the 1990s, the topics range from vampires to werewolves to haunted houses and mad scientists to creature features and giant apes. More than 160 photographs infest the pages of The Amazing, Colossal Book of Horror Trivia, including the greats of horror cinema like Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing, Fay Wray, Ingrid Pitt, and Barbara Steele.

In addition to listings of the Top 5 films per subject, Lampley, Beck, and Clark have also noted the highlights from the lives and works of the legendary stars and directors who have made this genre popular across the century. You'll never sleep without a nightlight again.
