My bro picked this up for me at garage sale. Anyone have any details on it? Thanks, Geezer.

Looks like some killer Neal Adams artwork in the bottom photo.

Probably from this, and it is awesome Neal Adams cover art. I have this album & cover/book in FN condition. Bought it back in the '70s.

Wow that jacket art is just as awesome as what i suspect must be the sleeve.  Neal Adams rules!  Any of his work included in the read along comic, Horrorhunter?

It's all Adams, bro, and it's freakin' beautiful. I also have the trade paperback reprint from Vanguard (2003) which has additional Adams illustrations in the back. Gorgeous stuff!

Oh ya!!!  I saw some of the illustrations in the Neal Adams vanguard art book that I bought.  I had know idea that the work was that old and reprinted.  That is sweet.  Even cooler now that you brought to light there is a record to accompany it.  Thanks man!

Glad to help a fellow Adams fan.  :)

I have this monster album, Terror Tales by the Old Sea Witch. I picked it up for 5 bucks in a used record store about five years ago. It features Martha Wentworth who, according to a poster on You Tube, was "Old Nancy" on the OTR show The Witch's Tale.

I dug mine out to check some things. Mine is the one in the pic above and the back cover looks like this.



It's dated 1975 and the cover is Power Records but the record album itself is marked Peter Pan. I don't have a turntable now so I can't check it, but the album just lists the Story of the 3 monsters, and lists the side 2 as the conclusion of the story. This link leads to a post with a You Tube video for House Of Terror parts 1 and 2. http://www.universalmonsterarmy.com/forum/index.php?topic=25649.msg417342#msg417342  The part 1 is the story about the 3 monsters by Adams, but the part 2 is other stories and songs. I'm not sure if my version has any of that extra stuff on side 2. On the record and cover it makes no mention of the extra material. That House Of Terror must have been a different release of it.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm gonna look up that Neal Adams book and see if I can find copy.

I saw the Tomb of Dracula and Man-Thing record sets at Comic-Con for $10 each. I looked at 'em both when I first arrived. I try to pace myself, so I set them down. Then I totally forgot. Damn!

Great stuff! Neal Adams is still my favourite comic book artist.

Aggghhhh!!!! How can you live without a turntable? I can live without a television more easily than without a turntable!

I had this one as a kid. I used to really enjoy listening to it. It was a 33 1/3 LP.

Here is a classic that many of us had back in the day, and have on our shelves currently. Fun stuff.

Amazon has this as a MP3 digital download for less than 2 bucks.
