Things That Go Bump in the Night: A Treasury of Classic Weird
ISBN: 9780957453562 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

And even when our offerings are lacking in bare breasts and buckets of blood, the theater of the mind is amply capable in painting a canvas that more than compensates for this lack of simple titillation. And it is this vividly morbid canvas that is the backdrop used by Things that go Bump. Our first volume is a treasury of what awaits you in later releases. Here you will relive the...
