Philemon Suren philsuren — Sexually perverse short stories.

John Ramsay johnramsaycompan — Fright Time was a juvenile horrors series like many others, except that each book contained three different stories by three different authors and, generally, (based on foggy memories and some preview-reads on Amazon (they've been reprinted!)) of higher quality writing, for juvenile horror series anyway. It makes a terrible kind of sense that Rochelle Larkin, a woman who edited many of the Great Illustrated Classics (those books were everywhere weren't they? And no damn good) was also responsible for these. Loved these books growing up, loved. I had the oddest chain-of-thoughts that led me to thinking about these books for the first time in likely ten years. I'll spare you the thought-chain just as I'll spare you the intricate 'crazy weird' dream I had last night. What was it about the 90s that inspired youth-oriented horror series? There of course had been for years authors who wrote supernatural novels for kids, from the gothic fare of John Bellairs to the facing-the-supernatural-as-metaphor-for-adolescence works of Zilpha Keatley Snyder. And of course you can go further back, but there was something in the water in the early 90s that sparked a huge horror boom in children's writing, the revival of Tales From the Crypt in reprints and on TV? I found a neat article last night from ThoughtCatalog.com that makes some good points about the success of Don Bluth, Jim Henson and other movies (Gremlins anyone?) that had horrific elements but were still 'kid-friendly'. The author also brings up Are You Afraid of the Dark, a series once the height of creepy, now ridiculous. It's interesting the series started airing in '91, right before all those books started coming out. There were so many. Goosebumps, Spinetinglers, and Spooksville come first to my mind. But R.L. Stine was king, with at least three other sprawling kid and young adult franchises to his name. To give an idea of his influence, when Goosebumps fell out of popularity in the late 90s along with (to be fair) some other financial shenanigans Scholastic Books' stock dropped over 50% in early 1997. Did I say that I loved these? I only had five of the 18 produced, but they were a lot of fun and if I see any at yard sales I'll probably pick them up. I had a shorty review of this posted last night but it didn't seem like enough. I wanted to justify my rooting around online for unspeakable amounts of time seeking these out with more than a few lines.
