I saw this book in the store and debated buying it for my twelve year old son. It is a little gruesome and the women are quite buxom. I finally decided to order it from Amazon and see what my son thought. Well he loves it! Now he draws nothing but werewolves and zombies fighting each other, I think that is a good thing(?). It is a nice follow up from author Steve Miller, my son got his book Freaks! As well so sooner or later he will probably start drawing zombies fighting cat people. I'm tempted to actually try my hand at drawing some of the characters for Halloween decorations (tempted, but I'll probably just end up making blow up copies at Kinko's.) All in all a nice book for children (and parents-lol) not prone to nightmares.

This book is not that bad, but it may not be suited for you if you have NEVER drawn something before:S

It has a lot of step by step guides and contains a good variety of subjects to draw. Hailing from vampires, zombies, vixens to werewolves:) This book is easily one of my favorites even if i cannot give it a top score grade... The reason why, is because it IS a bit advanced. Even if the step-by-step guides are somewhat easy to follow, if you don't have "pencil feeling", then you'll screw up a lot:S Belive me:p

But that may be just me:S It's not a bad book at all, so i can reccomend this one:) Buy it, you won't be dissapointed:)

This is a pretty cool book if you love Halloween and drawing, like I do. Some of the pictures are actually kinda scary, and all are well done. My only real complaint with the book is that they only show you how to draw one picture of the monster. One pose, one angle. I think books such as this need to show how to draw the creature from the side/front/ and maybe an angle. That way you truly have all the info you need to draw that monster any way you want.

But, if you're just looking for some good ideas or inspiration for some drawings, this could be good for you.

I have been using this book endlessly! So many drawings that my sketchbook is almost full, this book is fantastic for anyone who appreciate classic horror comic. Bryan Baugh is certainly a genius and he will show you how to draw amazing horror figures. Steve Miller does the same. I recommend for everyone to get this book, it's a must have for horror fan.

It was a decent book, I think it could have shown a few more steps on how to draw everything but not too shabby overall.

It's a nice book but you need to have and idea in painting because it's no so basic

this book is a good book if you want to draw scary skeletons and stuff like that. in my opinion, i thought it was cool because it has an interview plus art from Vince Locke ( the guy who does cannibal corpes's artwork among many other).
