Creepshow Unleashes "13 Tales of Terror" in New Prose Anthology

The iconic "Creepshow" isn't just for film buffs anymore. The legendary horror franchise is making a chilling jump into prose with a new anthology, "Creepshow: 13 Tales of Terror." For manga and anime fans who devour unsettling horror shorts, this collection could be a must-read.

Horror anthologies are a beloved format, from Junji Ito's disturbing vignettes to the unsettling tales found across seinen horror. This new prose book, edited by James Aquilone, taps into that same classic EC Comics-inspired dread. It promises a baker's dozen of nightmares, complete with dark humor, gruesome twists, and plenty of moral comeuppance – all hallmarks fans expect from the Creepshow name.

It's a different medium, yes, but the spirit of the Creepshow vault keeper almost certainly remains intact. This is an interesting crossover that horror enthusiasts on both sides of the Pacific might want to add to their reading list.
