Description:
The October 1969 issue of Castle of Frankenstein is a time capsule from the golden age of monster fandom. This issue shouts it from the rooftops: Star Trek is back, with Messrs. Nimoy, Shatner & Co. front and center. Inside, you’ll find a deep dive into Hammer’s Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed!, a heartfelt In Memoriam tribute to Boris Karloff, and thoughtful explorations of horror and fantasy cinema past and future. Add in Ray Bradbury wisdom, lunar sci-fi coverage, books, television, and the ever-eccentric Castle of Frankenstein movie guide, and you’ve got yourself a full-course meal for Monster Kids who like their nostalgia served hot and dripping with green slime.
