As promised, I bring you a small shopping list for the weird reader on your list. (click on the images for purchasing info)
Yes, it may seem a little self-serving (being a Strange Publications book and all), but Cate's collection is wonderful. Check out www.strangemeninpinstripesuits.com and read the reviews.

I'm a big fan of just about everything Kim Paffenroth has written. If you haven't taken a peek at
Valley of the Dead yet, you should grab a copy (or buy two and send one to a loved one). Smart horror, folks.

When I was seven, my sister gave me one of the best gifts she could: a subscription to the Star Wars comic book (then produced by Marvel). How about giving that fantasy lover a subscription to a nice small press mag like
Shimmer?

Or, for the horror fan on your list, a subscription to
Necrotic Tissue, a magazine which never fails to entertain.

Okay, so some people like poetry. Some people like their poetry weird (and somewhat dark). Stuff
A Mouth for Picket Fences by Barry Napier in their stocking.
9 Comments on Weird and Creeepy Shopping List, last added: 12/7/2010
Apart from the comics and Kim's book, I have everything on that list so I guess Kim's book is added to my shopping list.
Thanks for the plug and ending that final statement with "in the stocking" rather than "up your ass".
Cate - I have far too many old Haunt of Fear and Tales from the Crypt reprints.
Barry - I must nibble poems one or two at a time, but I'm working through Picket Fences...delightful word play.
More of a "Nightmare Before Christmas" shopping list ;)
Some great holiday reading there :)
Oh, hell of a list, Aaron! good point about the comics, too... Mmmmm. My favorite :D
Great list, man! I'm reading Cate's collection now and love the stories. She's got mad skills.
What better nightmare to have, Milo?
Cheers, Danielle.
Katey - I wouldn't be who I am without comics. I still remember buying a reprint of Weird Fantasy back in '85. I remember peeling back the cover, the garish illustrations of astronauts melting under extreme radiation...ah, those were the days.
Lee - Cate has a definite voice. I don't think I've ever heard her "real" voice, but I can when I read her stuff.
I wouldn't be who I am without them either--except I was reading Amazing Spider-Man. Still, that's some serious radioactive shit :D
