A very unique and Amazing book store along with music records and accessories with a focus on spooky stuff. A great collection of items in one place and a great ambience. Comic books Collection was impressive with manga and recipe comic books as an unusual but cool category.

Absolutely a must visit when I am in town. This is my version of heaven, an incredibly well-curated collection of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, manga, graphic novels, dvds, vhs tapes, and vinyl. Warm and welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Book collection ranging from obscure, out of print, hard to find to mainstream new releases. Obsessed.

Whether you're looking for a book, record, or a horror cult classic on physical format, this is the place to go. Owners are incredible people who make you feel welcome from the second you walk through the door. One of the best record stores in Chicago, especially if you are into heavy metal. Good prices. Wide selection. Highly recommend.

What a cool bookstore! I got many recommendations to visit and was so curious about the name so when I finally got the chance to go I was impressed! So many horror, fantasy, queer, history, and other books. They also have DVDs, manga, comics, vinyl, and even cassettes! I hear they have events there too like live music, I’d love to go back and see one!

What's not to love? The selection is amazing, the staff is fantastic, and there is so much to see! The staff allow you to search around and are there if you need them. You can discover a great book at any moment! You can also have them order books for you if you can't find it in store. I did and it was there like 8 days later!!! Love coming there!
