weirdTales

I hate Halloween. Detest the dressing-up, fake-scary behavior. The sugar overload for kiddies is very sinister. Si me quieres dar un susto, dámelo y pal carajo. boo boo to me, yo sola en el espejo. No haunted houses for me, con la mía basta, llena de fantasmitas a go-go. But the date gives me a good reason to feature Chicago´s own pulp horror magazine Weird Tales. The kinky covers were illustrated by Margaret Brundage in the 1930s, pretty avant-garde to have a female illustrator of such weird, funky, kinky stuff way back then.
