(1958, Upgraded 1/16/23) John Hudson, Peggy Weber, Alex Nichol, Russ Conway, Tony Johnson.

Armchair Fiction presents classic science fiction double novels with original illustrations. The leadoff novel is “The Secret of Elena’s Tomb” by Karl Tanzler von Cosel. This is a novelized true story of death and rejuvenation. And readers beware, this frightfully delicious tale of love, obsession, and science gone mad is morbidly true and not for the faint of heart.  The second novel is Amazing Stories regular Leroy Yerxa’s “Witch of Blackfen Moor.” Summoned just before midnight, Doctor Thaddius Quantry raced to the looming fortress of Blackfen manor, which stood in the desolation of the moors as an unwavering beacon in the darkness. As he neared the manor, an agonized scream broke through the eerie stillness of the moor.

(1932, aka GEHEIMNIS DES BLAUEN ZIMMERS) Theodor Loos, Else Elster, Hans Adalbert Schlettow, Wolfgang Staudte, Peter Wolff, Oskar Sima.  This fine German old dark house chiller actually pre-dates the classic 1933 Universal film of the same name.  So it’s apparent the Universal version was actually a remake.  We all know the story: horrible murders occur in a “haunted” room in a mysterious chateau riddled with mysterious characters and secret passageways...

(1938) George Curzon. Many of Tod's horror melodramas were played with a tongue in cheek approach. However, that's not the case here. This thriller pits a master detective fron Baker street against th

(1977 aka CURSE OF DEMON MOUNTAIN) Joe Don Baker, Sondra Locke, Ted Neeley, Joy Houk, Jr.  Starts like a Civil War movie, ends up like The Blair Witch Project.  Three Civil War vets hear from a dying soldier about a fortune in Diamonds hidden in a cave on a forbidden mountain.  As they travel through the woods, they realize they are being followed—but by what...?
