Creepshow: 13 Tales of Terror Brings the Iconic Horror Franchise to Print

The Creepshow franchise has taken many forms over the years, from film to TV series to comics. But surprisingly, we've never seen a Creepshow horror novel. That finally changes with the release of Creepshow: 13 Tales of Terror, a prose anthology collection from Monstrous Books and Evoke Entertainment.

IGN can exclusively debut a preview of one of the stories featured in Creepshow: 13 Tales of Terror. Check out the slideshow gallery below for a taste of author Tim Waggoner's "When the Mask Falls":

The full lineup of writers on Creepshow: 13 Tales of Terror includes:

• James Aquilone (Kolchak: The Night Stalker)
• David Avallone (Elvira: Mistress of the Dark)
• Simon Bestwick (Best Horror of the Year)
• Nancy A. Collins (Swamp Thing, Blade Runner, Sonja Blue)
• Dennis Crosby (Weird Tales)
• Keith R.A. DeCandido (Supernatural Crimes Unit, Star Trek, Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
• Gwendolyn Kriste (2024 Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel for The Haunting of Velkwood)
