Welcome Groovy Ghoulies to the lucky 13th installment of Monsters & Memories. We return to a tried and true formula for horror fans this time. There’s nothing like an old dark house with secrets!

Greeting Groovy Ghoulies! While the old projector was out for repair, I was going through some old boxes here in the crypt. And I came across a little treasure trove. It was a box filled with all kinds of goodies from my childhood. Along with my love of movies, comics, writing, drawing and reading were some of my favorite pastimes. And what a treat to find some...
