This is useful as the entire article has been reset for The Best of the Scream Factory but without the bibliography. Mike certainly doesn't hold back in the article, exposing some of Peter Haining's infelicities. The great man himself didn't seem to mind as he had a chance to comment on it before it went to press. I've only got #11 and #15 - certainly one the best mags of that golden age of horror mags.

The wizards of Odd. I wouldn't want to read this, as I am no fan of these kind of tales (to put it mildly), but the title is clever.

I'm with you, Andreas, and the same goes for his subsequent 'comic fantasy'/ Terry Pratchett/ Harry Potter cash ins. That said, should the Sunday market return and I spot any 50p copies of Wizards ..., The Flying Sorcerers, Knights of Madness, The Wizards' Den: Spellbinding Stories of Magic and Magicians and/or Magicians' Circle: More Spellbinding Stories of Wizards & Wizardry, & Co. I think we both know the likely outcome ...

Massapequan Observer 15 May 1980. (Circa More Tales of Unknown Horror and The Elephant Man & other Freaks) May 1979. The above from the Boxford, Suffolk community site, which is proving an invaluable resource for this thread. Full story of Boxford F.C.'s self-funded US tour in newspaper cuttings here. Come to think of it, all those books, and Peter devoted not a single one to his beloved football? Tales from the Blue Books, Udolpho #28, Spring 1997. Shades of Dracula, Udolpho #23, Winter 1995.

Wow, so Peter Haining was a football guy! I remember his hobby was bullfighting as listed in his books!

Wow, so Peter Haining was a football guy! I remember his hobby was bullfighting as listed in his books! A football fan to the end. Literally. Apart from the bullfight anthology, he compiled at least three sports themed selections, the self-explanatory Hole in Fun: A Round of 18 Humorous Golf Stories, (1988) and LBW - Laughter Before Wicket: 100 Years of Humorous Cricket Short Stories, (1986), and an epic Murder At The Races: Stories of Crime, Corruption, Murder and the Sport of Kings (1995). Is chess a sport? If so, he published one of those, too, not to mention a biography of colourful daredevil rider Tornado Smith: Wall of Death Pioneer,(1998).
