Between 1975 and 1981, BBC2's Saturday seasons of late night horror double bills made celluloid monsters as much a part of the British summer as hosepipe bans, plagues of ladybirds, Bjorn Borg winning Wimbledon, and moustachioed Australian fast bowlers bullying pale-faced English batsmen. The best and most influential of these film seasons came in 1977 under the banner title of Dracula, Frankenstein - and Friends! To a whole generation of spotty schoolchildren, the films they first encountered in those double bills were a formative experience with life-enhancing, and life-affirming consequences. I was one of those spotty kids, and it is no exaggeration to say those films changed my life. This is the story of how.

Stories in verse about the monster-sized problems Dracula, Wolfman, Bigfoot and other monsters have.

Jamie Carpenter's father is dead, his mother is missing, and he was just rescued by an enormous creature named Frankenstein. Now Jamie is pulled into a secret organization responsible for policing the supernatural, founded more than a century ago by Abraham Van Helsing. . . . Department Nineteen takes us through history, across Europe, and beyond - from the cobbled streets of Victorian London to prohibition-era New York, from the icy wastes of Arctic Russia to the treacherous mountains of Transylvania. Part modern thriller, part classic horror, it's packed with mystery, mayhem, and a level of suspense that makes a Darren Shan novel look like a romantic comedy.
