Shaun [The Celluloid Highway] said...: Awesome gallery of images Will :-) - DEMON LOVERS AND STRANGE SEDUCTIONS, I dont think you can get a much better title for a book! Award for best cover goes to DRACULA IN LOVE I think.; April 14, 2011 at 11:31 AM
Matt Bradshaw said...: A very cool gallery indeed. Colin Wilson's The Space Vampires was of course the basis for Tobe Hooper's 1985 film Lifeforce.; April 14, 2011 at 11:41 AM
Amanda H. said...: I didn't know "The Hunger" started out as a book or is it a different "The Hunger"?; April 14, 2011 at 1:15 PM
Will Errickson said...: Strieber's novel is indeed the basis for the movie.

Oh, and the creepy vampire girl from that SARAH BRADLEY is from the 1970 movie COUNT YORGA, VAMPIRE.; April 14, 2011 at 1:25 PM

Luis said...: The first and last covers, The Curse of the Undead and Demon Lovers, are by Jeff Jones, who was quite prolific as a cover artist in the 70's.
Great covers, all of them! I wish I had a copy of Space Vampires. Ever since I saw Lifeforce I've wanted to read the original novel.; April 15, 2011 at 12:20 PM
Will Errickson said...: Thanks for IDing Jones; no cover artist was listed.

Here's RAGA SIX:

alshia m. said...: I love some of these titles like "Some Of Your Blood". Did any of these make the bestseller's list I wonder? Ha ha.; August 19, 2011 at 12:01 AM
J. said...: Two Jones covers in this post makes it full of win, particularly the one for "The Curse of the Undead". Love that image. Too bad we lost Jones. Makes me sad.; August 3, 2012 at 10:19 AM
