We’re getting an early start on Halloween here with Grady Hendrix’s delightful compendium of Paperbacks from Hell – the classic pulp horror novels of the 1960s and 1970s.

“I sort of was a film guy originally, and in film there’s this real tradition, going out and finding really obscure movies no one’s heard about and showing them to people to sort of blow their minds, and I didn’t see this happening so much with books,” Hendrix says. “So I was going through a dealer’s bin looking for something, you know, that would grab my attention, a place to start. And I came across The Little People by John Christopher … and it is quite literally a book about a castle in Ireland being turned into a B&B, and the big problem is Nazi leprechauns in the basement.”
