director Guillermo del Toro's House of Horrors

from the NY Times:

"The director of fantasy and horror films keeps his collection of books, gory props and mannequins where he can see, and be inspired by, them."

I've been an avid fan of the horror genre and monster movies since I was a kid in the early 60's. I subscribed to Famous Monsters of Filmland and I've been following Rick Baker's career since The Thing With Two Heads .

I enjoy del Toro's work. Thanks for the link, Jim. What fantastic homes! I could immerse myself in them for weeks!

I still have all my copies of Famous Monsters, as well as Castle of Frankenstein. :)

I wish I still had mine Richard. But I did have the pleasure of hanging out with Forest J Ackerman one afternoon (we interviewed him for a film and took him to some of his old haunts). It was like getting to hang out with one of those mythical, supernatural critters he brought to us all -- but not scary.
