A Tame Nightmare

It's a 1962 release.

01. The Tell-Tale Heart (1:50)
02. Invasion of the Locusts (2:16)
03. The Loft (2:29)
04. Ghost Ship (1:56)
05. The Watery Grave (2:02)
06. Chamber of Horrors (2:05)
07. The Red-Eyed Rats (2:23)

09. Werewolf (1:33)
10. Living Tomb (2:17)
11. The Chase (2:07)
12. Monster Meet (1:54)

It's patterned after Creed Taylor's SHOCK and PANIC releases, but this is pretty tame (and therefore pretty lame).

But give it a stagger around the block just in case it's your cup o' hemlock.

PERMANENT LINK.
  
See you on Monday, my putrid pussyfooters!
