Halloween Society Unearthed 1987-1990 Volume 2 Hardcover Book Ron Magid:

The Halloween Society, founded in the late 1980s, transformed monster masks from disposable products to bonafide works of art. Now its colorful history and dramatic influence is documented in Ron Magid's two-volume memoir, The Halloween Society Unearthed and The Halloween Society Unmasked. 

The Halloween Society Unmasked continues the strange but true story of this secret society whose elaborate, lovingly hand-assembled fanzines, The Allhallows Eve Companion and The Halloween Gazette, argued that masks created by Don Post, Distortions Unlimited, House of Horror Studios and many others were deserving of being collected, preserved and even critiqued. 

These sought-after issues are reprinted here for the first time ever, illuminated by Magid's untold tales of their making, along with detailed tales of the creation of The Halloween Society's 13 deluxe, extremely limited Custom Collectors Edition masks, available exclusively to its members. Inspired by Don Post’s Universal Studios monsters, these first-ever renditions - including Fredric March from 1932's  Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Lon Chaney Sr. from London After Midnight, and Paul Wegener as Der Golem to name but a few - are considered among the rarest masks of all time and became the new gold standard as maskmaking exploded into a worldwide industry celebrated at massive conventions like Monsterpalooza and MaskFest.
