Spotted Online – Pages from “World of the Unknown: Monsters” at The Haunted Closet
Matt Doughty of Onell Design and I were trading messages this morning when Matt suddenly shot me a link to this page at The Haunted Closet. Okay, the first thing I have to say is that The Haunted Closet blog is loaded with fun; do not go there or you may lose hours of your life.
Anyway, back to the post in question. This is a collection of scans of a book from 1978 titled “World of the Unknown: All About Monsters,” and every sample page has me thinking I may have seen this when I was a kid. But I cannot remember any specific page shown, so it could be that I played too much Dungeons & Dragons as a kid and monsters always spark memories . . . real and imagined.
Check out the post right here, and then if you want to dive in and go wild take a peek at these Amazon pages for all three books in the series:

Yes! My local library had the UFOs and Monsters ones when I was a kid and I read them both. The UFOs one a huge number of times, actually. Would love to track down a copy — however, I think they had different covers in Australia.
Man, I’ve been LOOKING for these for years! Couldn’t remember the title of the series though. You’ve done me a service with this post! I went to the Haunted Closet site and commented similarly–this brings back so many memories!
