Creepy Beautiful Illustrations by Fred Banbery

The Water Ghost of Harrowby Hall

Just the name Hitchcock conjures up memories of huddling in the dark with images of bewildered eyes full of fright.

All of the following illustrations were the work of the great Fred Banbery (1913 - 1999). Banbery often included drawings featuring Hitchcock himself. He also illustrated a total of six Paddington picture books although his artwork has never appeared on any of the merchandising products.
This is the cover of Alfred Hitchcock's Haunted Houseful (1963)- nine cool stories about haunted houses and ghosts for boys and girls.

Happy Birthday to all Scorpios. My mom, sister, and sister-in-law are all beautiful Scorpios. So are many of my talented friends.

I recently obtained some psychedelic rock albums, one of which was Cosmic Sounds by The Zodiac (1967). Cosmic Sounds narrator Cyrus Faryar depicts the various characteristics unique to the respective 12 zodiac insignias with some of the hottest session musicians of the time. Each song is a dreamy acid ode to the signs of the zodiac. Download Song about Scorpios-The Passionate Hero here.

With lyrics like "Each moment lives through a crossfire and the password is win" it's a psychedelic gem. Read more about it or download the album here.
