SCOTT HAMPTON'S SPOOKHOUSE

IDW Publishing in March will release Spookhouse, the first in a two-volume collection of Scott Hampton's favorite ghost story work.

Spookhouse will include "The Upturned Stone," as well as stories by writers such as Clive Barker and Robert E. Howard. In addition to the painted comic stories, each volume will include some classic prose ghost stories with new illustrations by Hampton.

"I'm looking forward to collecting these stories," Hampton said. "I'm going into each one and tweaking for greater readability so these might be called the artist's cut. I'm also doing some brand new work for these volumes. For #1 I'm adapting W. W. Jacob's classic The Monkey's Paw in 19 pages. That comics story along with illustrations accompanying other classic short stories by E. F. Benson and M. R. James will total a fairly hefty amount of new material."

According to IDW editor-in-chief Jeff Mariotte, "Scott has proven himself, over many years and works, as an artist of uncommon strength and quality. His storytelling skills are top notch and his pages glow with luminous beauty. If he weren't a fan of ghost stories, we'd have to force him to become one, because the combination of artist and subject matter is just so perfect. Whether it's a story of his own creation or an adaptation of one by a world-famous writer, the finished product is always brilliant."

Spookhouse will be 136 pages and will cost $19.99.
