In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. First Edition. Paperback. Orgy of the Dead (1966) is a cult erotic horror novel written by Ed Wood, Jr., serving as the tie-in novelization to the 1965 "nudie cutie" film he scripted. It follows a couple who wander into a graveyard, becoming prisoners forced to watch dancing ghosts a…nd ghouls, with an introduction by Forrest J Ackerman. It was an adaptation of his own screenplay for Steve Apostolof's Orgy of the Dead (1965). This was perhaps the only full-length book to arise from Eddie's brief and largely unsuccessful association with Forrest J. Ackerman, founder of Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine. It was Ackerman who sold the book to Earl Kemp, editorial director at a San Diego publisher called Greenleaf Classics. The paperback has since become quite a collector's item, partially thanks to the painted cover art by artist Robert Bonfils (1922-2018). Unfortunately, to further illustrate the book, Ed Wood pilfered some photographs from Steve Apostolof's personal collection of stills. This contributed to the rift between Ed and Steve that persisted until the two reunited in 1972 for a new series of films. Scarce in this condition. Light toning, else near fine. Color pictorial wrappers. 12mo. 158pp. Illus. (b/w).
