A Svengoolie Surprise at Horrorbles

The Chicago TV Horror Movie Shows: From Shock Theatre to Svengoolie book release party was a huge success!


Thanks to everyone who came by Horrorbles in Berwyn to buy copies of the book. Not only did attendees get books personalized by authors Ted Okuda and Mark Yurkiw, but Rich Koz was also there to sign books and pose for photos.













Horrorbles was the perfect location for the book release party (I'm mean, it's in Berwyn). Besides, the staff and customers couldn't have been more enthusiastic and supportive.

John Aranza, Jr., the Horrorbles owner.

knowledgable Chicago guide, and cheery party co-host.
