I didn’t forget this time out! Hopefully everyone enjoyed their weekend, especially if you were lucky to have Friday off! But now that we’re back to the work week, let’s get back to business and get this started, shall we?
Last week’s photo was from Amando de Ossorio’s Night of the Sorcerers! Released in 1974, this has one of the most strangest and bizarre openings that you’ll see. Starring the lovely Loreta Tovar and Jack Taylor, if you’re a fan of Euro-Horror, then you’ll probably will enjoy this one! Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Elena Anele, Troy Howarth, Doug Lamoreux, Bryan Moose, Richard Schellbach, Michael Shields, Kristin Wicks, and William Wilson. Nice to see this many names for a cult title like this one.
For this week’s photo, we’re moving back into our own country (see…and they say I never give any hints!) to see if you can identify this recently discovered title. Take a good look and see what you can come up with. And don’t worry which title you might know it under, we’ll accept them all. See…yet ANOTHER hint! As usual, please do not post your answer here, but send an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!
In Cincinnati this last weekend, it was our first stop on the 2016 Kryptic World Tour, and boy, was it a doozy! I’ve been doing this show since the very beginning and am always amazed at the crowds they bring in each and every time. Of course, in this day and age, being a dealer at any convention is always a challenge, since you’re competing not only with other dealers, but more importantly, with the price of autographs and Photo Ops. But I have to say I was thrilled to see so many people stop by our table over the 3-day weekend and purchase a book (or two, or three) from us. It showed me not only that the interests in horror reference books is still out there, but also the desire for fans to learn more about the genre we love. And I have to say, that makes this old man pretty happy.
