Cemetery Dance 72 Now on Sale
Cemetery Dance calls itself a magazine of horror and suspense, and I think that describes it pretty well. It has a nice mix of fiction, interviews, news, and reviews. It’s not a digest, and has plenty of interior art, both of which I appreciate.

Wow! Where did this come from? They even have Steven King! John, your magazine rack idea is a good one.
Thanks Ape!
A shout out to Stephen Bacon, a UK writer who gave me a heap of great advice as I was finding my feet in short horror writing a few years back. Google his name, find his site and check out his work – someone with his talent has a bright future in the field.
Wow — I remember buying Cemetery Dance a long, long time ago (back in the 1990s when I was reading more horror). Glad to see they’re still around.

Joe,
They’re still around — and publishing a lot of great fiction. If you haven’t already, have a look at their website, and explore their book line. Pretty impressive stuff!
