Description: "This book contains entries on everything from Universal Studios' classic Frankenstein, Dracula, and Wolf Man films of the 1930s and '40s to notable episodes of T.V. shows like The X Files and Star Trek, from practically every version of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and The Phantom of the Opera ever made to such low-rate movies as Kung Fu Vampire Buster, The Wrestling Women vs. the Aztec Mummy, and Zombie Creeping Flesh.".

"The book also includes hundreds of brief biographies of the key actors, directors, and technicians who created the films. Illustrated with more than 100 photographs, many rare and behind-the-scenes, and featuring an introduction by Forrest J. Ackerman, this is the ultimate guide to the world's best-loved monsters."--BOOK JACKET.
