10 Tips for Starting a Vintage Horror Collection, By The Horror Hypothesis   


I’ll admit it, I have a problem.  


My name is Donnie and I am a vintage horror bibliomaniac.  


The outrageous covers, provocative titles, and wide range of cheesy, but often thought provoking stories.  A few years back I found myself drawn into this dark world. Quickly, I spiraled into making routine trips to bookstores all over the country just to satisfy my urge to find the next horribly awesome title for my...
